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 allHey, I've been having this left chest pain for a year now. I've done a TMT test and it came back negative. In the past year, I've had a 2D echo done 3 times and about 40 ECGs, all normal, but the pain is still there on the left side of my chest. Even though the TMT was negative, the pain persists, and I'm really worried about heart issues. My cholesterol levels are fine, sugar levels are normal, but my BP is 16090. My liver, kidney, and urine tests are also normal. I'm really anxious, especially with all the scary news I see on TV and social media. I've attached the most recent ECG can you please check if there's anything wrong? What should be my next step?
Since your TMT test was negative and your ECGs have been normal, it's good to hear that your cholesterol, sugar levels, blood pressure, liver function, urine test, and renal test are all normal. Given your concerns and persistent symptoms, the next step would be to consider a stress echocardiogram to further evaluate your heart's function under stress conditions. This test can provide more detailed information compared to a standard 2D echo. Additionally, considering your fear and anxiety, it may be helpful to consult with a cardiologist for a more comprehensive evaluation and to address your worries. It's important to address both the physical and emotional aspects of your health.

I'm really worried about my dad's high blood pressure. We've tried consulting multiple doctors, but nothing seems to be helping. Is there anything specific we might be missing or any new treatment options we should consider?
High blood pressure that is difficult to control can be challenging. Your dad may benefit from a combination of medications to help manage his blood pressure. One common combination that doctors prescribe is amlodipine (5mg) along with losartan (50mg) taken once daily. It is important to continue monitoring his blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and managing stress to help improve his condition.

I'm really worried about my 67-year-old dad. He had an angioplasty just five days ago and now he's running a fever. The doctor gave him Ceftum 500 and he's already taken two tablets, but the fever keeps coming back. Plus, he had constipation for a couple of days, so we tried giving him Looz syrup, and now he's got loose motions. What should we do?
take only tablet
