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 concerned because my dad had an angioplasty a few days ago, and they put in a stent. Since then, he's been having a really bad dry cough at night. The doctor gave us some medicine, but it doesnt seem to be making any difference. I'm worried this might affect his stent or his heart. Could this cough be connected to the procedure or the medication? What should we do next?
