I've been experiencing some pain in my left armpit and the far left side of my chest, near the armpit, for almost an hour. It's not super sharp, but it's definitely something I've never felt before. It went away after a while, and I feel fine now. Do you think I should be worried about this?

I'm trying to figure out what's causing my shortness of breath. If my HRCT scan looks normal, but I'm still experiencing breathing issues and my ECG shows RBBB, what could be going on? Should I consider getting a CT coronary scan to investigate further? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

Pulmonary function test, methacoline challenge test

I'm taking ecospirin 75 every night at 9:30 PM, but sometimes I accidentally miss a dose. I'm worried about what could happen if I skip a day or two. Could you let me know if there would be any side effects or anything I should be aware of?

Missing a dose of ecospirin 75 (aspirin) can increase the risk of blood clots forming in your arteries, which can lead to serious conditions such as heart attack or stroke. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
