I'm a bit worried about my grandma's medication. She's been on Aten 50, but the pharmacy gave us Losar 25 mg instead. Are these two the same? Can she safely switch to using the Losar now?

Question

I'm worried because I sometimes feel like my heart stops for a moment. I got an echo and an ECG done, but the doctor just gave me vitamin capsules. Should I be concerned about something more serious?

I've been feeling a bit uneasy since lunch yesterday and decided to see a doctor around 5:30 because I was anxious. He suggested an ECG, and my report mentioned a moderate T wave abnormality and an anterior ischemia with 0.1 mV T wave in V3V4, calling it an abnormal ECG. Do you think I should see a cardiologist about this? Is there something serious I need to be concerned about?

Question

I've been getting some pain on both sides of my chest from time to time, and I'm a bit worried about what it could mean. I had a chest X-ray recently and it came back normal, but can an X-ray really tell if there's something wrong with my heart or lungs? Would it show everything that's important, or should I be looking into other tests or something?
