Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I had a stress test and a echo cardiogram done, I can not sleep on my left side after I lay down for few seconds it feels like a lot of pressure. When I lay on my right side I have to position my arm on my side, sometimes bend my knees and then I burp or pass gas and I can finally fall asleep.

Hi,
You have an abdominal gas (flatulance) problem. There's nothing to worry. Certain precautionary measures will give relief. Have your dinner early. Avoid eating pulses, breads at night time have a dinner that mostly contain veggies. Also avoid milk. If possible have a walk of half hour after your dinner.
Hope this helps you. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Jenis Bhalavat
