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?

View allI'm a bit worried about my heart because I was told I have left bundle branch block and that I had a silent heart attack, even though I'm not diabetic. I had an angiography done before my knee surgery, and it showed no major blockages, just a 20% one in my right coronary artery. I've also been dealing with hypertension. Can you help me understand what might be causing the LBBB?
Possible causes for left bundle branch block (LBBB) include underlying heart conditions such as coronary artery disease, hypertension, cardiomyopathy, and heart valve disease. Since you mentioned that you are suffering from hypertension, it could be a contributing factor to your LBBB. It is important to manage your hypertension effectively to reduce the risk of further heart complications. In terms of medication, you may benefit from taking an ACE inhibitor like Lisinopril to help control your blood pressure and protect your heart. The typical dosage for Lisinopril is 10-40mg once daily. Additionally, a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol can also be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate and blood pressure. The usual dosage for Metoprolol is 25-100mg once or twice daily. It is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your heart health and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

Is rice bad for cholesterol?
Rice as altogether is not either bad or good for cholesterol. White rice has high cholesterol and also it is easily digestible, so one tends to overeat. On the other hand, brown rice is whole grain with low glycemic index, has less cholesterol and more fiber which promotes fullness.

I'm really concerned about my husband's health lately. He's been experiencing sharp chest pain in the middle of his chest whenever he does cardio, but it stops as soon as he takes a break. This all started after he slept in a wrong position for about an hour. We're a bit unsure whether to consult a cardiologist or a pulmonologist. Could you provide some guidance on what might be causing this issue and which specialist we should reach out to?
