I'm feeling a lot of pain in the upper muscles of my chest, even though I can breathe normally. It feels like there's pressure on my chest. I recently had a chest X-ray, and the doctor said it was normal. I've got acidity, and I'm not sure if that's what's causing this much pain. It sometimes feels like I might fall over, but my blood pressure and sugar levels are normal. I'm really anxious about my health. I've already taken all the reports; CT scan for my brain was normal, and liver, kidney, and thyroid are also fine. I even checked cardio and took a TMT which came back negative. But both the right and left chest muscles are still hurting. What should I do?

_iPill and Vaginal Bleeding: Precautions and Expected Duration_ The iPill (emergency contraceptive pill) can cause changes in your menstrual cycle, including vaginal bleeding. _Causes of Bleeding:_ 1. _Hormonal changes_: The iPill contains levonorgestrel, which can disrupt hormonal balances, leading to bleeding. 2. _Delayed ovulation_: The iPill can delay ovulation, causing irregular bleeding. _Precautions:_ 1. _Monitor bleeding_: Keep track of the bleeding's duration, heaviness, and any accompanying symptoms like pain or clots. 2. _Sanitary hygiene_: Use sanitary pads or tampons to manage bleeding, and change them regularly to prevent infection. 3. _Avoid strenuous activities_: Refrain from heavy exercise, bending, or lifting to minimize bleeding. _Expected Duration:_ 1. _Bleeding duration_: Vaginal bleeding after taking the iPill can last anywhere from a few days to 2-3 weeks. 2. _Menstrual cycle resumption_: Your menstrual cycle may resume within 2-4 weeks after taking the iPill. _When to Seek Medical Attention:_ 1. _Heavy bleeding_: If you experience heavy bleeding, soaking more than 2-3 pads or tampons per hour. 2. _Severe pain_: If you have severe abdominal pain, cramping, or discomfort. 3. _Fever_: If you have a fever over 101.5F (38.6C). 4. _Prolonged bleeding_: If bleeding persists for more than 3 weeks.

All three arteries are blocked at 90, 80, and 80. We're trying to avoid bypass surgery would stenting work in this case? If successful, how long can we expect the stents to last before needing another procedure?
For triple-vessel disease with high blockage, bypass is more durable than stents. Stents may offer short-term relief but restenosis is a risk. A cardiac surgeon should evaluate case specifics.

I'm a bit concerned about my dadhe's got a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. His reports show no blockage and his echo report is normal, but his blood tests indicate an iron and magnesium deficiency. We've started him on Orofer XT for the iron since his Hb level is 10.3 because of low ferritin. I've seen some folks online saying that magnesium citrate 1000 mg per day and L-Taurine have helped reduce their Afib episodes. Is it okay for my dad to take these supplements too, and if so, for how long should he be on them? Also, he's currently taking Cordarone (Amiodarone), Prolomet 25, and Xarelto 15. We're wondering if he could switch from Amiodarone to Flecanide (Flecarite 50) since we've heard Cordarone can be quite toxic compared to other meds. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
Q1. Can my father take magnesium citrate and L-Taurine supplements to help reduce Afib episodes? If yes, for how long? Yes, your father can take magnesium citrate and L-Taurine supplements to help reduce Afib episodes. He can take magnesium citrate 1000 mg per day and L-Taurine supplements as reported by other patients. It is recommended to continue taking these supplements as long as they are providing benefit in reducing Afib episodes. Q2. Can my father switch from Cordarone (amiodarone) to FlecanideFlecarite 50, since Cordarone is very toxic compared to other medicines? Yes, your father can consider switching from Cordarone (amiodarone) to FlecanideFlecarite 50 as an alternative treatment for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. It is important to consult with your father's healthcare provider to discuss the potential benefits and risks of switching medications. The healthcare provider can provide guidance on the appropriate dosage and duration of treatment with FlecanideFlecarite 50 based on your father's individual health condition.
