I've done all the tests like an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal, but I've been having this pain on my left side of the chest for a month now. I'm worried because it feels like it might be leading up to a heart attack. Could it still be something heart-related even if the tests were okay?

Since your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, your chest pain may not be related to a heart attack. However, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your chest pain. You can try taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for the chest pain. If the pain persists or worsens, you may consider taking an antacid like omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once a day to see if it helps with the pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and stress management may also be beneficial.

I'm really worried about my grandfather who's 76. He was hospitalized twice because his blood pressure went up to 200100. We have the ECG from when he was in the hospital and his prescription too. Since getting discharged, his blood pressure is fine during the day, but at night it gradually rises to somewhere between 16080 and 18090. Does the ECG indicate he's had a heart attack? Are the medications he's on appropriate?
If the ECG shows sinus rhythm with no signs of acute myocardial infarction. The medications prescribed are Amlodipine 5mg once daily and Atenolol 25mg once daily. These are appropriate medications for controlling high blood pressure. However, since your grandfather's blood pressure is still increasing during the night, a medication adjustment may be needed. I recommend consulting with the doctor who prescribed these medications to discuss the possibility of increasing the dosage or adding another medication to better control his blood pressure during the night.
