I'm experiencing some pain in the middle of my chest since last night. I think it might be related to stress and maybe even gastric issues. Should I be considering a heart checkup just to be safe, or is it okay to just monitor it for now?

It is important to rule out any potential heart issues, especially if you are experiencing chest pain. However, based on your description and suspicion of gastric-related pain due to work stress, you can start with an over-the-counter antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) for relief. If the chest pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and appropriate management.

View allI experienced a sudden jerk in the left side of my chest while I was sleeping at night. My ECG came back normal. What should I do next?
It is possible that the sudden jerk in your left side chest could be due to muscle spasm or a benign condition. However, if you continue to experience this sensation or if it is associated with other symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or dizziness, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking a muscle relaxant like Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) 5-10mg as needed for muscle spasm.

I'm dealing with some chest congestion and mild pain, and my doctor has put me on Rosuvas for high cholesterol and Metaprolol for blood pressure. They've also prescribed Myospaz for the pain if I need it. Is it safe to take Myospaz alongside Metaprolol and Rosuvas?
Yes, you can take myospaz along with metaprolol and Rosuvas. Myospaz contains paracetamol and dicyclomine which can help relieve pain and discomfort. The usual dosage for myospaz is 1-2 tablets every 6-8 hours as needed for pain. Just make sure to follow the recommended dosage and frequency as advised by your doctor.
