I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest, and I found out that my ESR is 25. My vitamin D3 level is really low at 3.75. I got a CT scan of my lungs, and everything came back normal. I'm curious if taking vitamin D3 supplements will help with this chest pain, or do you think I should see a cardiologist about it?

View allI'm a 33-year-old guy, and I've just been told I have a myocardiac bridge 1520. Lately, I've had a bit of right chest pain, some tightness, and I'm feeling kind of weak. Can you help me understand what's going on with me? I'm really curious and a bit worried.
Myocardial bridge is a condition where a segment of one of the coronary arteries tunnels through the myocardium rather than resting on top of it. This can lead to symptoms such as chest pain, tightness, and weakness. In your case, with a myocardial bridge of 15-20%, it is important to manage your symptoms and monitor for any changes. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can take medications such as Beta-blockers like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to reduce the workload on your heart and relieve chest pain. Additionally, Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets can be used for acute chest pain relief. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your condition.

I'm a bit concerned about my medication. I had an ASD closure with a device on October 3rd, 2020, and I've been taking aspirin 75 and clopidogrel 75 every afternoon since then. Is there any issue with continuing these meds? Can I stop them? I just recovered from COVID on May 18th and have my echo report with me. Should I be aware of anything specific?
Having an ASD (atrial septal defect) device closure and taking aspirin 75 mg and clopidogrel 75 mg are standard protocols to prevent blood clots. It is crucial to continue these medications unless advised otherwise by your cardiologist. Stopping them abruptly could increase the risk of clot formation around the device. Given that you have recently recovered from COVID-19, it's even more important to follow your prescribed medication regimen as COVID-19 can increase clotting risks. Please consult your cardiologist before making any changes to your medications. They can provide individualized advice based on your current health status and recent recovery.
