I've been experiencing a lot of stiffness in my chest lately, and sometimes there's this pain that pops up on the left side, right side, or even in the center of my chest. I've had a chest CT, blood tests, and even an abdominal CT and ultrasound, and everything seems to come back normal. It's just really confusing and a bit worrying. What could be causing this if all the tests are normal?

I'm curious about whether soy milk really helps in lowering LDL cholesterol and if it's good for the heart. How much soy milk would be safe for someone with heart issues to drink?

Soy milk is indeed beneficial for heart health as it contains plant-based proteins and is low in saturated fats. The presence of soy protein in soy milk has been shown to help reduce LDL cholesterol levels. For heart health benefits, it is recommended for a heart patient to consume around 25 grams of soy protein per day. This is roughly equivalent to 2-3 cups of soy milk daily. Regular consumption of soy milk as part of a balanced diet can contribute to a healthy heart.

I've been having chest pain for the past 56 days and it started with my back. I've done an ECG three times and an ECO once. My blood pressure is 14090, and I'm on Hifen Pofloxacin 400, Ecosprin 75, Amlovas 20, and a PPI as prescribed by my physician, but the pain in my chest is still there. Sometimes it even goes to my left hand. What should I do now?

Based on your symptoms and medications, it seems like you may be experiencing chest pain due to cardiac issues. Since the pain is still persistent and sometimes radiates to your left hand, it is important to seek further medical evaluation. I recommend that you consult with your physician to consider adjusting your current medication regimen. In the meantime, you can take a nitroglycerin tablet for immediate relief of chest pain. Additionally, it would be beneficial to undergo further cardiac investigations such as a stress test or coronary angiography to rule out any underlying heart conditions.
