My grandfather, who's around 75, has been experiencing some discomfort in the upper left side of his chest just above his heart. He thinks it's probably related to acidity. The pain started just a few hours ago, and he's not on any regular medication. Should we be worried about this being something more serious? What would you recommend we do next?

View allI'm a bit worried after my full body health check-up. The ECG and stress ECG turned out normal, but the 2D Echo showed I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. And there were some issues in my chest X-ray too. I also have diabetes and I'm on medication for that. Plus, I've got a hernia operation coming up next week. Is this something I should be seriously concerned about? Should I go see a cardiologist and a pulmonologist?
first consult cardiologist.

I'm feeling a vibration sensation in my left chest that's been going on for a few seconds at a time. I had an ECG and ECO test done, and both came back normal, and the doctor told me that I don't need any medicine. But I'm still experiencing it sometimes, and I'm just wondering how long it might take for this vibration to stop?
In this case, you may be experiencing palpitations or muscle spasms. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol 25mg once daily. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may also be beneficial. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

I'm a bit worried about my ECG results from a recent preventive health checkup. It mentioned "T inversion in III and aVF" and I'm not sure what that means. My heart rate was 75 bpm, PR interval at 126 ms, and QRS duration at 112 ms. Then, there's the QT interval at 358 ms and QTC interval at 402 ms. The axis angles were noted as P Wave 27 degrees, QRS Wave 4 degrees, and T Wave 6 degrees. Could you please help me understand what all this means and if I should be concerned?
