I've been noticing some strange smells for the past monthmost foods just don't smell right to me. It hasn't gone away, and on top of that, I've been dealing with chest pains for the last couple of days, especially when I lie down to sleep. Do you think I should see a doctor about this? Also, why do things smell so weird to me? Plus, I'm feeling really tense all the time.

Hey, I'm really puzzled by my dad's ECG test results, and I'm hoping you can shed some light on it for me. He's 66 and the report mentions something about a "sinus rhythm" and "suspect inferior myocardial infarction." There's also a note on "right axis deviation." Should I be concerned about these findings? What do these terms mean for his heart health? I'd appreciate your help in understanding what all this technical stuff means.

Probable differential diagnosis include right axis deviation and myocardial infarction.. Ecg and cardiac markers advised and cardiac opinion..

I'm having this issue where I feel a tightness or pressure in my chest whenever I lie down flat to sleep. It almost feels like I'm running out of oxygen sometimes. Do you have any advice on what could be causing this or how to deal with it?

My mom had an angioplasty about a month and a half ago and shes got a stent now. Just wondering, she started having this itchiness and rash on her calves last week which is a bit better now. Could this be some sort of reaction to the stent or maybe the meds? And if it is, is there anything we can do to help ease it?
