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.

My mom had an angioplasty last month, and she's been on medication since. We've been wondering about stopping Daxid 50 because she's feeling better, but we're worried about any possible side effects from stopping it suddenly and if it's a habit-forming medication. Could you provide some guidance?

It is important not to stop Daxid 50 (Sertraline) suddenly without consulting the doctor. Abrupt discontinuation of this medication can lead to withdrawal symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, headache, fatigue, and irritability. It is recommended to gradually taper off the dose under the guidance of a healthcare professional to minimize the risk of withdrawal effects. So, please consult your mother's doctor before making any changes to her medication regimen.

Is it okay to use hot water steam for a cough if I've just had an angioplasty? I'm worried about whether the steam could affect the stent, especially since it's only been a week since the procedure. Would it be safe to try this, or should I avoid it?

Taking hot water steam for cough after Angioplasty is generally safe, as it can help to soothe the throat and loosen mucus. However, it is important to avoid inhaling steam directly through the nose, as this can potentially irritate the nasal passages and sinuses. As for the stent, steam inhalation is unlikely to have any direct effect on the stent itself. Just make sure to keep a safe distance from the hot water to prevent any burns.
