Brief Answer:
Cardiac problems to be ruled out first...
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX!
Cardiac problems due to drug abuse is a very common problem. This is why I recommend going to ER to exclude life threatening cardiac problems.
If you were my patient I would recommend to do:
- ECG
- Cardiac ECHO
- Stress test
- Chest x ray
- Abdominal ultrasound
- Upper Endoscopy
Based on the test result a proper diagnosis will be made.
Hope this was of help!
