I've been having this back pain that shoots down to my hands and chest. I had a TMT done on 20th February 2022, and it came out negative. But I'm worried because I'm feeling the pain again today, and my doctor advised an ECG. If my TMT was normal, do I really need to get an ECG every single time this pain hits?

If you have already undergone a TMT which was normal, and you are experiencing chest pain again, it is still important to have an ECG done to check for any acute changes in your heart's electrical activity. It is not necessary to have an ECG done every time you have pain, but if the pain is severe or persistent, it is advisable to seek medical attention and follow your doctor's recommendations.

View allI've been dealing with chest pain for about 8 months now, and even though I got checked out, they didnt find any issues with my heart. I tried taking Myospaz and Pan 40 for a week, but it didnt really help. The pain just keeps coming back regularly. What should I do next?
Ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the patient. Syrup sucralfate 10 ml orally ,thrice daily for 14 days and tab pan d ,before food for 14 days is also advised to the pt.

I'm worried because my cardiologist told me to take Met XL 25 for my fast heart rate, but I accidentally bought Met XL 50 instead and took it this morning. Will taking the 50 mg dose be harmful to my health? Can you help me understand if I should be concerned?
taking Met XL 50 instead of Met XL 25 once should not cause significant harm to your health. However, it is important to stick to the prescribed dosage for optimal treatment. I recommend informing your cardiologist about the mix-up and following their guidance on whether to continue with Met XL 50 or switch back to Met XL 25 at the correct dosage.
