Hey, I went to the hospital today because I've been having really bad chest pain from my GERD. They gave me a Pan injection, but the pain hasnt gone away. The doctor said I should get an ECG done and talk to a cardiologist. But I couldnt see one because of some financial issues, so I had to go home instead. Can someone please look at my ECG report and let me know if everything seems alright or if there's something wrong?

If you are experiencing severe chest pain due to GERD, you can try taking Omeprazole (20mg) once a day before breakfast for relief. Additionally, you can take Antacid syrup like Gelusil after meals for immediate relief from acidity. Make sure to follow up with a cardiologist as advised by your doctor for further evaluation of your chest pain.

I've done all the tests like an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal, but I've been having this pain on my left side of the chest for a month now. I'm worried because it feels like it might be leading up to a heart attack. Could it still be something heart-related even if the tests were okay?

Since your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, your chest pain may not be related to a heart attack. However, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your chest pain. You can try taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for the chest pain. If the pain persists or worsens, you may consider taking an antacid like omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once a day to see if it helps with the pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and stress management may also be beneficial.

I'm kind of confused and a bit worried about my recent ECG results. The cardiologist mentioned something about needing to "correlate clinically" with the results. Could you help me understand what that means? I've got my report here and I'm just trying to figure out what I should be doing next.

I'm scheduled to have an angiogram next week and I'm feeling a bit anxious about it. How long does it usually take to recover fully from this procedure? I'm also worried about any possible side effects or serious risks that might come with it. And after the angiogram, will I need to stay in the hospital for a long time?

1-3 days is the hospital stay, post angioplasty sideeffects include paininfection, itching, bleeding and swelling.. They resolve after 3 days..
