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'm really worried about my dad. He's been having heart palpitations and his creatinine level is at 2.4. Do you have any advice or suggestions on how we can help him get better?
Heart palpitations can be concerning, especially with a high creatinine level. To help manage heart palpitations, your father can take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) at a dosage of 25-50mg twice a day. It is important to also address the underlying cause of the high creatinine level, which may involve medications like Lisinopril (brand name: Prinivil) at a dosage of 10-20mg once a day to protect the kidneys. Additionally, it is crucial to follow a low-sodium diet and stay hydrated. Regular follow-ups with a healthcare provider are essential to monitor his condition.

I'm really puzzled because my ECG and echo results came back normal according to the doctor, but I'm still experiencing chest pain and sometimes pain in my left hand. I've attached my ECG report here. What might be causing these symptoms if all the tests show nothing wrong?

I've been feeling breathless quite often and my gastroenterologist advised me to cut out salty, spicy, and oily foods from my diet and to take a PAN L tablet in the morning. It's been 10 days since I started this diet, but I'm still having the same symptoms. I'm worried if this might be a heart issue, though my echo and ECG came out fine three months ago. Could it be something to do with my lungs? I'm really anxious because sometimes I feel a heaviness on the left side of my chest, and at times my heart rate suddenly increases. My vitamin B12 levels are normal. I'm not sure if I should stick with this diet or consult someone else. Can you guide me on what to do?
