My dad's been having this ongoing chest and left-hand pain for about a month now. He saw a doctor who said it was some kind of gastro issue, and the meds worked while he was on them. But ever since he finished the course, the pain's come back. What could be going on and what should we do next?

My X-ray and thyroid tests came back normal. What could be going on? Is there something I should be worried about?

I'm curious if it's normal for my heart rate to be between 50 to 60 while I'm sleeping because I'm noticing it jumps to about 140 when I'm doing housework. Can you tell me if that's okay and what my heart rate should be when I'm resting?
A heart rate of 50 to 60 beats per minute during sleep is generally considered normal, especially if you are physically fit. However, a heart rate of 140 during housework seems elevated and may warrant further evaluation. For sleeping, the normal resting heart rate typically ranges from 60 to 100 beats per minute, but it can be lower in healthy, fit individuals. Its advisable to discuss these fluctuations with your healthcare provider to ensure there are no underlying issues that need addressing

I'm taking Inderal 40 mg since August 2019, and recently I've cut it down to 20 mg for the past month. My pulse rate seems fine now. I'm wondering how I can safely stop taking this medication. What steps should I follow to withdraw from it?
To withdraw from Inderal (Propranolol) 20 mg, it is important to gradually taper off the medication to avoid any potential withdrawal symptoms. You can start by reducing the dosage to 10 mg for a few weeks, and then further decrease it to 10 mg every other day for another few weeks. Finally, you can stop taking the medication completely. It is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for personalized guidance and monitoring during this process.
