I've been having chest pain for a couple of days now, and it's pretty constant, especially when I'm just sitting or lying down. Plus, sometimes I get this pain in my shoulder and neck, and even occasionally a stomach ache. I'm 20, I don't smoke or drink, and I'm not overweight. Could this be something serious like a heart attack or angina? I'm kinda worried and not sure what to do.

Based on your symptoms and age, it is less likely to be a heart attack or angina. However, chest pain should never be ignored. It is important to rule out any serious conditions. You may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or acid reflux. I recommend taking over-the-counter antacids like Tums for stomach ache and trying ibuprofen for pain relief. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried because I've been taking Rosukem A1075 after getting diagnosed with T2DM in September 2018. The cardiac doctor I visited then suggested this medication for a normal ECG and echo. But I've just got my annual health checkup reports, and both the ECG and TMT turned out fine. Now I'm unsure if I should keep taking this tablet. My diabetologist says I should continue with Rosuvas 5. Could you help me figure out what to do?

Since you were advised Rosukem A1075 by the cardiologist, it is important to follow their recommendation for your heart health. Rosukem A1075 contains Rosuvastatin 10mg and Aspirin 75mg, which helps in managing cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of cardiovascular events. As for your diabetologist's advice to continue Rosuvas 5, it contains Rosuvastatin 5mg which also helps in lowering cholesterol. It is important to follow both specialists' advice for optimal management of your conditions. So, you can continue taking Rosukem A1075 as advised by the cardiologist and Rosuvas 5 as advised by the diabetologist for your overall health."

I've been having shortness of breath and recently got an Echo done, which said there was mild LVH. A couple of days ago, I noticed a little blood when I spit, and my doctor recommended I take Augmentin 625 and Montair LC for a week. I've been on them for two days now, but I noticed bright red blood when I spit again today, with no mucus color. I also have GERD and have had this issue for more than six years. Could the medication or the GERD be causing this, or should I be worried about something more serious?

I experienced some pain in my left chest yesterday and remembered that I had an ECG done on December 8th. The results mentioned something about a "Non-specific T-wave abnormality." Could you help me understand what this means? I'm feeling a bit concerned about it.

Non-specific T-wave abnormalities on an ECG indicate changes in the heart's electrical activity that are not specific to any particular condition. It can be seen in various situations such as electrolyte imbalances, medication side effects, or even normal variation. It is important to correlate these findings with your symptoms and medical history. For chest pain, it is recommended to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
