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'm feeling really worried because I've been experiencing chest pain whenever I walk or exert myself. I had a TMT test done, and it was negative. They tried doing a PFT test, but it couldn't be performed. My X-ray came back normal, and the 2D echo showed 60. What could be causing these chest pains despite all these tests being normal? I'm really concerned about what might be happening.

I'm really worried about my dad's health. Last Friday, he had a major heart failure and after carrying out an angiogram, the doctor found out that there are three blockages in his heart. They also mentioned that his ejection fraction or EF is at 20 which is quite low, and because of that, they can't perform angioplasty or bypass surgery. I'm really unsure about what steps we can take to improve his condition. Could you guide me on how to help him get better or what options we might have?

With a low ejection fraction (EF) of 20% and multiple blockages in the heart, the main goal of treatment would be to improve his heart function and manage his symptoms. Medications such as ACE inhibitors, beta blockers, and diuretics can help improve heart function and reduce the workload on the heart. In addition, medications like statins can help manage cholesterol levels and prevent further blockages. It's important for your father to follow a healthy lifestyle, including a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol intake. Regular monitoring by his healthcare team is crucial to adjust his treatment as needed.
