I've been dealing with chest pain for the past one and a half months. I've had a chest X-ray, ECG, Echo, and TMT done, and all the reports came back normal. I even went to a cardiologist, and he said it's not related to my heart. The pain started about a week after I found out I have high BP. I'm currently taking Prolomet AM, Pantocid IT, Drise 60k, and Rozavel. The pain feels like muscle pain on the upper side of my chest, on both sides. Sometimes, it feels like a pinch all over my chest. It also extends to my underarms and neck occasionally, and I feel tightness, especially on the upper right side of my chest. I sometimes have itching in my chest and sensations below my chin and jawline. What's strange is that I feel a bit better after some physical activity, like exercising or walking. Could you help me figure out what's going on? What should I do next?

View allI'm really worried about my heart health. I've been told I have mild plaque in my LAD and right artery and was diagnosed with insignificant CAD. How much plaque build-up actually needs medication? I'm trying to understand when it becomes a serious issue. Can you help clarify this for me?
In cases of insignificant coronary artery disease (CAD) with mild plaque in the LAD and right artery, medication may still be recommended to manage risk factors and prevent progression of the disease. Common medications that may be prescribed include: 1. Statins (e.g. Atorvastatin) - to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of plaque buildup. Dosage: Typically starting dose of Atorvastatin is 10-20 mg once daily. 2. Antiplatelet agents (e.g. Aspirin) - to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke. Dosage: Aspirin is often prescribed at a low dose of 75-100 mg once daily. 3. Beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) - to lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart. Dosage: Metoprolol is commonly started at a dose of 25-50 mg once or twice daily. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations and attend regular follow-up appointments for monitoring and adjustment of medications as needed.

I'm having this persistent pain on the left side of my chest, and I've already seen a cardiologist about it. They had me do a bunch of tests like an ECG, 2D echo, TMT, CT coronary angiography, and even conventional angiography. Everything came back normal, which was a relief. But just a few days ago, the chest pain came back and the ECG now shows a T wave abnormality, possibly anterior ischemia. I'm really worried about what this could mean. Is this something I should be seriously concerned about, and what do you think my next steps should be?
Hello, based on your history and the recent ECG findings showing T wave abnormality suggesting anterior ischemia, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your chest pain. Since your cardiac tests have all come back normal, the T wave abnormality may be due to other factors such as coronary artery spasm, inflammation, or even non-cardiac causes. I recommend discussing with your doctor about starting medication like Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets for immediate relief during chest pain episodes. Additionally, you may benefit from medications like Beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) and Calcium channel blockers (e.g. Amlodipine) to help prevent chest pain episodes. It would also be helpful to consider a referral to a gastroenterologist to rule out any gastrointestinal causes of chest pain, as well as a follow-up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. Remember to follow up with your healthcare provider for a personalized treatment plan.
