I've been dealing with constant chest pain for the last two months, and I'm 32. Could this be a sign of a heart problem, or is it just gas? The pain isn't spreading to other areas, and I'm not sure what's going on. Any insights?

Based on your description of constant chest pain for the past 2 months with no pain in any other area, it is important to rule out any potential heart-related issues. I recommend you take an over-the-counter antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) for immediate relief if it is related to gas. However, it is crucial to consult a doctor for further evaluation and consider taking a low dose of aspirin for heart health.

View allI've been on Axcer 90 along with Aspirin 75 since September 2018 until September 2019. After that, from September 2019 to May 2020, I switched to Axcer 60 with Aspirin 75 mg. I stopped taking Axcer 60 about 20 days ago, and now I'm feeling a bit uneasy in my chest sometimes at night. I had a heart attack back in September 2018 and I've had a preventative stress echo twice in the last 18 months, which came out fine. Is it possible that this uneasiness is some kind of withdrawal effect from stopping Axcer?
It is possible to experience withdrawal symptoms when stopping Axcser (clopidogrel) abruptly, especially after long-term use. Symptoms may include chest pain or discomfort, shortness of breath, weakness, dizziness, or palpitations. Since you have a history of heart attack, it is important to consult your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen. To manage any potential withdrawal symptoms, your doctor may recommend gradually tapering off the Axcser dosage instead of stopping it suddenly. Additionally, they may provide alternative medications or adjust your treatment plan to ensure the best outcomes for your heart health.

I'm really worried about my husband who recently had an ECG done. It mentioned something about a 'probably MI Inferior' and 'RS inversion area between V1 and V2.' I'm not sure what this means. Is this something serious that we should be concerned about, and are there any more tests we should consider?
Your husband's ECG results suggesting a possible inferior myocardial infarction (MI) with RS inversion between V1 and V2 require further evaluation. This pattern could be caused by misplacement of leads V1 and V2, which can mimic an MI. To confirm the diagnosis, additional tests such as a stress test, echocardiogram, or cardiac biomarker blood tests may be necessary. Consult a cardiologist to discuss the results and determine the best course of action.

I'm really worried about my dad. He had an angioplasty in June, and after that, he started having blood clots in his hand and thighs. The doctor thought it might be because of high dosage meds, so they reduced his mg, but now he's also been having blood coming from his mouth quite often. Can you help me figure out what might be going on?
The blood coming from your father's mouth could be due to a side effect of the medications he is taking. One common side effect of blood thinners, which are often prescribed after angioplasty to prevent blood clots, is bleeding. I would recommend consulting with the doctor again to discuss this new symptom. It is important to monitor his medication dosage and ensure it is appropriate for him. Additionally, the doctor may consider adjusting the dosage or switching to a different medication to help reduce the risk of bleeding from the mouth.
