I'm really concerned about my 75-year-old mother-in-law who has a pacemaker and had to stop using her hearing aid. Her cardiologist mentioned that the electromagnetic signals could mess with the pacemaker. I'm wondering if it's possible for her to use both if we keep the hearing aid battery more than 6 inches away from the pacemaker. If so, what kind of hearing aid would you recommend in this situation? Would love your advice on this.

I'm curious and a bit worried because I'm experiencing pain right in the middle of my chest, not in the ribs or on one side. It's just between my chest and it's been bothering me. What could be causing this kind of pain?

Pain in the center of the chest can be due to several factors, including acid reflux, muscle strain, or even stress. It's important to monitor if the pain is associated with other symptoms like shortness of breath or dizziness. If it persists or worsens, it's best to consult a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation.
