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 allMy dad's been dealing with high blood pressure for about five years now, and he's been taking CILACAR 5 MG every day. For the last couple of days, his BP has been at 10050. Should he keep taking his medication or do we need to make any changes because of this?
A blood pressure reading of 10050 is considered low and may be a cause for concern, especially if your father is experiencing symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting. In this situation, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before making any changes to medication. However, if your father is not experiencing any symptoms, he can skip the dose of CILACAR - 5 MG for that day. It is important to monitor his blood pressure regularly and consult with his doctor for further guidance.

I've been dealing with some health issues for a while now and I'm getting a bit concerned. It's been nearly 80 days since I first had a fever and lost my sense of smell, although those symptoms have improved. My CBC, ESR, and CRP tests came back normal, but about two weeks after my initial symptoms started, I began experiencing chest pain. The chest pain has mostly gone away, but every now and then it returns, and I still feel this tightness and heaviness in my chest. I haven't had any shortness of breath, and my SpO2 levels are between 96 and 98 after a six-minute walk. An ECG has been done, and the cardiologist said it's normal, diagnosing the pain as muscular. I just had a chest X-ray today, and I'm curious if it's normal. Also, my left nostril sometimes gets blocked, making it difficult to breathe comfortably. Can you please help me understand when I might start feeling like myself again?
Probable diagnosis is GERD .Patient is advised tab pan d ,orally for 14 days and syrup sucralfate 10 ml thrice daily for 7 days .
