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.

View allI've been having this subtle pain and discomfort around my ribs, and it's really starting to give me anxiety and hypertension. I've already done an ECG, TST, and some blood tests, but everything came back normal. I've seen a couple of doctors, and they mentioned it's probably related to rib pain, but it feels more serious to me. Is there any specific X-ray or test I should be looking into?

I've been experiencing this sharp pain and tightness in my chest, and it sometimes feels more like stabbing. It's not constant - sometimes it's there, sometimes not. It's weird because I also feel it around my back. On top of that, I'm always tired and feel drowsy. Should I be concerned about this?

I'm really worried about my father's condition. He's been dealing with coronary heart disease for about 4 years now and we've already tried various treatments and seen local doctors here in Pontianak, Indonesia. The problem is, he got really traumatized by the high doses or hard drugs prescribed to him, so now we're mainly relying on some herbal remedies like this red juice from Papua called Kuansu. It seems to help a bit, but not for long. A few doctors have mentioned that he might need a ring or bypass operation, but that's honestly really tough for us financially. I'm curious if there's any alternative treatment for coronary heart disease that you could suggest, especially considering our situation.
In cases where medication and herbal remedies have not provided sufficient improvement for coronary heart disease, and surgical options like stents or bypass surgery are not feasible due to economic constraints, another alternative treatment option to consider is medical therapy. Medications such as Atorvastatin (Lipitor) to lower cholesterol, Aspirin to reduce blood clotting, and Metoprolol to manage blood pressure and heart rate can be beneficial in managing coronary heart disease. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the most appropriate medication regimen and dosage for your father's specific condition.
