I've been dealing with this chest pain on the right side for about 34 months now. It's not constant but pops up every 10 to 15 days and only lasts for about 5 to 10 seconds. It's starting to make me a bit nervous, and I was wondering if there are any tests you think I should get done?

It is important to investigate the cause of your chest pain. I recommend you to undergo an ECG (Electrocardiogram) to check your heart's electrical activity, and an X-ray or CT scan of the chest to rule out any structural issues. Additionally, a blood test to check for cardiac enzymes and lipid profile may also be beneficial in assessing your heart health.

View allI'm really worried about my dad. He had two angioplasties earlier this year, and his doctor mentioned there's another vein blockage that might need treatment in the future, like 1-2 years from now. But now he's having pain again, and the doctor says we need to operate right away. I'm just wondering if it's safe to delay this procedure so I can get a second opinion from another doctor. Does it sound too risky to wait a little longer?
It is important to prioritize your dad's health and follow the advice of his current doctor. To manage the pain and prevent further complications, your dad can take medications like Clopidogrel (Plavix) 75mg once daily and Aspirin 81mg once daily to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke. However, it is crucial to consult with his doctor before making any decisions regarding postponing the angioplasty procedure.

I'm experiencing these needle-like pains on the left side of my chest for just a split second. There's no sweating or weakness accompanying it. I've also noticed that when I take EVION LC or any vitamin E supplement, my vision gets a bit blurry. Is this something I should be concerned about?
The needle pain in your left side of the chest for a few seconds could be due to muscle spasms or nerve irritation. It is reassuring that you are not experiencing sweating or weakness along with it. However, the blurred vision you experience after taking EVION LC or any vitamin E supplement is concerning and should be addressed. I recommend stopping the use of EVION LC or any vitamin E supplement and consulting with your healthcare provider. They may suggest an alternative supplement or investigate further to determine the cause of your symptoms
