Question

I've been dealing with this left-side chest pain and I'm really worried. I went to the emergency room because of it, and while my ECG was normal, the doctor gave me some antiacid and anti-gas meds. It seemed to help a bit after a couple of days. A cardiologist later ran heart tests, which also came back normal, and he suggested the same meds. But today, the pain spiked again, and although it eased a bit after I ate and took more medicine, it's still lingering. I'm not feeling pain anywhere else, just in the left chest. I'm concerned about what could be causing this. Should I be consulting a different kind of doctor for better treatment?

Question

I had an endoscopy a few days ago and now my chest is really hurting. Should I be concerned and go get it checked out, or is it okay to wait a bit longer?

Question

I've been having some diarrhea and mild pain in the upper part of my stomach since yesterday. The pain eases when I go to the bathroom, but my stools are really watery. Should I be taking Ciplox TZ or Noflox TZ for this? And how much should I take?
