I'm feeling like there's a weight on my chest, and every so often, it really hurts. I've had COVID twice but I'm on the mend now. I was thinking of getting a chest x-ray, but I noticed there are different kinds, like AP view and lateral view. I'm not sure which one I should go for. Can you help?

View allMy dad had bypass surgery about 20 years ago, and now the doctor is suggesting he needs a CAG. They mentioned something about "30 working," and I'm not completely sure what that means. He's 60 years old now. Is it safe for him to go through this procedure again at his age?
"Dear Sir, based on your father's history of bypass surgery and the current recommendation for CAG due to 30% heart function, it is important to proceed with caution. Given his age of 60 years, the procedure can still be safe. Your father may benefit from medications like Clopidogrel 75mg and Atorvastatin 40mg to manage his heart condition. It is important to follow your doctor's advice closely and monitor for any potential complications. Regular follow-up appointments are essential for his ongoing care and management."

I'm having this mild pain on the left side of my chest and left arm. It's a bit strange because my blood pressure and pulse rate are normal. It doesn't bother me when I'm walking, running, or even taking the stairs. The pain is mainly around the top left part of my chest and comes and goes, but is kind of always there. Should I be worried about this?

I'm feeling this weird breathlessness when I lie down, but it goes away if I turn to my side. I don't have a cough or fever, and I consider myself pretty healthy otherwise. Should I be concerned about this?
