I'm experiencing a mild pain on the left side of my chest, and I'm not really sure what's going on. Could you recommend a medicine that might help? If it doesn't get better, I'm thinking of coming in for a check-up and more treatment. What do you suggest?

I recommend taking Acetaminophen 500mg for your mild chest pain on the left side. You can take 1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to seek further medical evaluation.

Question

I'm a bit anxious right now. I usually take my Nubeta 2.5 at around 11am every day, but I got confused and took it again at midnight thinking it was my multivitamin. My blood pressure was around 14090 before using Nubeta. I'm worried about what kind of side effects I might experience because of this. Can you help me understand what to expect and if I should do anything specific?

Question

I'm really concerned about something and wanted to get your advice. I'm 61 and just had some tests done. They said my LV function is normal with an EF of 60 and no RWMA, but I have trivial MR and Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction with concentric LVH. The valves check out fine and there are no clots, vegetation, or pericardial effusion. My chamber dimensions are normal too. But when I did a stress TMT, it showed some significant ST changes in leads II, III, AVf, V4, V6, although I had no arrhythmia or chest pain, and my heart rate and blood pressure responded normally. Should I be worried about these ST changes? What does this all mean for my heart health?

Question

I've been noticing for the past 4 years that my heart occasionally skips a beat or flutters, but it's been happening much more frequently lately. It gets me really anxious each time, even though I dont have any other symptoms apart from the anxiety. Can you guide me on what might be going on?
