I suffer from restless leg syndrome and take Lyrica and Requip for treatment, but they cause me to feel very lethargic.

I have been experiencing a deep, sore feeling in my lungs that makes me feel like I need to cough, especially after running. This sensation has persisted for about two weeks and doesn't go away as it used to. I am a 42-year-old male, non-smoker, with a history of heart palpitations that specialists have deemed harmless. What could be causing this persistent lung discomfort?

For the past 10 years, I have experienced on-and-off sharp chest pain only on the left side, possibly near my heart. The pain has become more frequent (a few times a day) and sharper. It occurs both at rest and during activity. I am 29 years old, in great shape, and my doctor has not taken my concerns seriously, attributing the pain to inflamed tissue in my rib cage. What could be causing this pain, and what tests or treatments should I consider?
