I'm experiencing this weird vibration-like sensation in the upper left side of my chest that's been going on for a couple of days. Initially, I thought it was just acidity, but its been almost 45 days now. Any idea whats causing this and how I can fix it quickly?

I've been on Axcer 90 along with Aspirin 75 since September 2018 until September 2019. After that, from September 2019 to May 2020, I switched to Axcer 60 with Aspirin 75 mg. I stopped taking Axcer 60 about 20 days ago, and now I'm feeling a bit uneasy in my chest sometimes at night. I had a heart attack back in September 2018 and I've had a preventative stress echo twice in the last 18 months, which came out fine. Is it possible that this uneasiness is some kind of withdrawal effect from stopping Axcer?

It is possible to experience withdrawal symptoms when stopping Axcser (clopidogrel) abruptly, especially after long-term use. Symptoms may include chest pain or discomfort, shortness of breath, weakness, dizziness, or palpitations. Since you have a history of heart attack, it is important to consult your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen. To manage any potential withdrawal symptoms, your doctor may recommend gradually tapering off the Axcser dosage instead of stopping it suddenly. Additionally, they may provide alternative medications or adjust your treatment plan to ensure the best outcomes for your heart health.

I'm really concerned about heart attacks and wanted to get some clarity on it. Could you explain how a heart attack actually happens and what steps one can take to recover from it or prevent it from happening in the first place? I'm just trying to understand more for peace of mind.

My dad's been dealing with high blood pressure, around 155 over 105, and his creatinine levels were a bit high too, at 1.8. He used to be on 5mg Minipress and 10mg Calcigard, but then he got prescribed 20mg Calcigard by mistake. Now, his blood pressure hasn't changed, but his creatinine shot up to 2.6. Could this be because of the change in the Calcigard dosage?

yes could be probable cause..
