I'm really worried because my husband keeps having this slight pain and tightness in the center of his chest. It's especially bothersome when he coughs or takes a deep breath during these episodes. It's not happening all the time, but I'm not sure if we should investigate heart problems or something else. There aren't any other symptoms to go off of. What should we do?

I'm dealing with high cholesterol and recently I've felt some pain in my left chest. I'm pretty worried about what this might mean. Should I be doing something specific or is there anything you recommend I look into?

It is important to manage your high cholesterol to reduce the risk of heart-related issues. You can start by taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10-20 mg daily to lower your cholesterol levels. Additionally, if you are experiencing chest pain, you can take Aspirin at a dosage of 81mg daily to help reduce the risk of blood clots and relieve chest pain. However, it is crucial to seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe or persistent chest pain.

I had an ECG done yesterday, and the report said there's a long left axis deviation. Can you explain what that means? I've attached the ECG for you to check.

Long left axis deviation on an ECG can indicate various underlying conditions such as heart enlargement, high blood pressure, or conduction abnormalities. It is important to correlate this finding with your symptoms and medical history. In some cases, further evaluation such as an echocardiogram may be needed. Please follow up with your healthcare provider for a detailed evaluation and appropriate management.
