Why do I get this pain in my chest on the left side when I climb stairs or even shout? I've done all the tests like ECG, Echo, TMT, and CT angio, and they all came back normal. The CT showed no blockage but mentioned deep myocardial bridges. My cardiologist says it's not angina or heart disease but put me on Beta lock 0.25 twice a day. Anytime I get startled awake or shout when I'm angry, the pain starts again, spreading to my left back, arms, and neck. It's so confusing because the doc says it's nothing serious, but the pain keeps coming back and it's worrisome. Do you have any idea what might be going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or panic attacks, which can manifest as chest pain and other physical symptoms. The Beta Block medication prescribed by your cardiologist can help manage these symptoms by reducing the effects of adrenaline on your body. In addition to the medication, it may be helpful to practice stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises, mindfulness, and regular physical activity. If these symptoms persist or worsen, it would be advisable to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and possibly a referral to a mental health professional for additional support. Remember to take your Beta Block medication as prescribed and try to incorporate stress management techniques into your daily routine to help alleviate your symptoms.

Can I take Ecosprin AV75 tablets even if I don't have heart pain? I'm 33 years old and wondering how long it's safe to use this medication, like maybe taking one tablet a day for a month. Is it okay to just stop after that? Curious to hear your thoughts.
Ecosprin AV75 is a combination medication containing Aspirin and Atorvastatin. It is commonly used for heart health to prevent heart attacks and strokes. At your age of 33, if you do not have any specific heart condition or risk factors, it is not recommended to take Ecosprin AV75 as a preventive measure without consulting a doctor. If a doctor has prescribed Ecosprin AV75 for you, the duration of the treatment will depend on your individual health condition. It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding how long to continue taking the medication. Typically, if it is prescribed for prevention, it may need to be taken for a longer duration than just one month. It is not advisable to stop taking Ecosprin AV75 abruptly without consulting your doctor, as sudden discontinuation of Aspirin can have adverse effects. Always follow your doctor's instructions regarding the duration of treatment and any changes to your medication regimen.
