I'm really worried about what to do if a family member, like my mom or dad, ever has chest pain, starts sweating a lot, or has pain in the arm or shoulder. What if they start vomiting too? I mean, in that moment, can I give them aspirin or sorbitrate? And if so, how much should I give? Could you explain how to properly administer it? I'm a bit anxious about this and not really sure about the right steps.

I'm trying to understand something from an ECG report I received. It says "ECG within normal limits, sinus rhythm, no ST T changes." What does all this actually mean? Is there anything here that I need to be concerned about or pay attention to? Could you please explain it to me?
ECG within Normal Limits means that the electrical activity of your heart is normal. Sinus rhythm indicates that the heart is beating at a normal rate and rhythm. No ST T changes suggest that there are no signs of heart muscle damage or inadequate blood supply to the heart. This is a good result and indicates that your heart is functioning well. It is important to continue with a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, a balanced diet, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption to maintain a healthy heart. If you have any specific concerns or symptoms, it is always recommended to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I've been having some chest pain that moves around a bit - sometimes it's on the left side, other times in the middle. I walk 5 km every day and I don't feel any pain when I walk, which is odd. About a year and a half ago, I had a TMT, Echo, and ECG done, and everything came back normal. Since then, I've had four more ECGs, and they're all normal too. I attached my latest ECG here. I'm just wondering, is there anything else I can do to really make sure this isn't a heart-related issue? The pain mostly hits when I'm sitting, so I can't figure out what's going on. Could it really be non-cardiac?
"Hello, based on your description and the normal results of your TMT, Echo, and multiple ECG tests, it is less likely that the chest pain is related to a cardiac issue. Since the pain occurs mostly when you are sitting, it could be musculoskeletal or related to gastric issues. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like **Ranitidine** 150mg twice daily before meals to see if it helps with the pain. Additionally, you can take **Acetaminophen** 500mg as needed for pain relief. If the pain persists or worsens, further evaluation by a healthcare provider may be necessary."
