I'm really worried because I've heard that heart attack symptoms in women can be different from what men experience. Can you explain what signs I should be looking out for? And how can I tell if chest pain is from a heart attack or just something else? Its been on my mind lately, and I'd love some clarity.

I recently started feeling some pain on the left side of my chest and it made me really anxious, so I went to the hospital. The doctor had me do an ECG and a 2D Echo. According to the reports, the doctor said my heart is normal. Can you please take a look at my reports and provide your thoughts on them? I'm still a bit worried and could use some advice.

"Sir, based on the ECG and 2D Echo reports that you have provided, which indicate that your heart is normal, it is good news that there are no abnormalities detected in your heart. The pain in the left side of your chest could be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, acid reflux, or anxiety. To alleviate the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and deep breathing exercises may help with the panic and anxiety symptoms. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. Take care."
