I'm a 28-year-old female and I've been experiencing this pain between my breastbone. It happened again today while I was sleeping, and it lasted for about 3 to 4 hours. I remember feeling the same thing around 4 months ago, but it also only happens during sleep. I have no medical history to speak of. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

My dad's heart is only pumping at 19% capacity, and I'm really worried about him. He's also been dealing with diabetes and recently had some edema issues. Is there anything we can do to help improve his heart function?

I recommend that your father's condition be managed with medications such as Carvedilol (Coreg) to help improve heart function and reduce strain on the heart. Additionally, medications like Furosemide (Lasix) can help with the edema by reducing fluid retention. It is important to closely monitor his diabetes as well to keep his blood sugar levels under control. Regular exercise, a healthy diet, and lifestyle modifications can also help improve heart function.

I'm having some neck and shoulder pain and got an ECG done. The results mentioned something called "middling left axis deviation." Can you explain what this might mean?

Due to neck and shoulders pain, the ECG showing middling left axis deviation may indicate a possible heart condition. It is recommended to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief.
