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.

View allI'm having these ongoing pressure-like pains in my chest, neck, and shoulder. It's really making me anxious, even though I had an echo and TMT just two months ago, and they were normal. My cardiologist said its not my heart, but I cant shake off the fear of possibly having a heart attack. What might be causing this pain, and how can I deal with this anxiety?
Since your cardiologist has already ruled out any heart-related issues with a normal echo and TMT two months ago, the pain may be due to musculoskeletal issues or other non-cardiac causes. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for pain relief. Additionally, you can use muscle relaxants like Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) to help with any muscle tension contributing to your discomfort. It's important to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the medication packaging. If the pain persists or worsens, consider consulting with a physician for further evaluation and management.

I'm looking over my recent ECG report and I'm a bit worried about understanding it. It shows various measurements like QRS 84ms, QTQTcB 360439 ms, PR 148ms, and more stuff like that. I'm not sure if anything seems off, especially with these values like P 92ms and RRPP 672650 ms, and how they all add up. Also, theres something about Sokolow 1.3mVNK from 13 May. Could you explain what these all mean and if I should be concerned about anything unusual here?
