Chest pain on the left side has been bothering me on and off for the past week. I'm dealing with a lot of work stress and only getting around 6 hours of sleep a night. My evening meal times are all over the place too. I'm not having any issues with breathing or moving around, but I can't help but wonder what's causing this discomfort. Could you tell me what might be going on and if I need to get any tests or X-rays done?

View allI'm a 22-year-old guy and I've been diagnosed with sinus arrhythmia. My cardiologist gave me embeta xr to take for a month and after using it, I feel about 80% better. I'm wondering if I should keep taking the medicine for another month. I read online that sinus arrhythmia might not need any treatment and could just go away as I get older. Could you give me some advice on what to do next?
Embeta XR is a brand name for Metoprolol, which is commonly used to treat various heart conditions, including arrhythmias. Since you have already experienced improvement with the medication, it would be advisable to continue taking it as prescribed by your cardiologist. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations for the full duration of the treatment to ensure the best outcome. In this case, continuing Embeta XR for another month as prescribed would be beneficial for managing your sinus arrhythmia.

I'm a bit concerned about getting the COVID vaccine because I had angioplasty about a decade ago and have been taking ecospirin tablets since then. I've heard that the vaccine might be risky for people with a history of blood clots. Could you please shed some light on whether it's safe for someone like me?
It is generally safe for patients who have had angioplasty and are taking ecospirin (aspirin) to receive the Covid vaccine. The benefits of getting vaccinated against Covid-19 outweigh the risks, especially in individuals with a history of heart disease. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before getting vaccinated to ensure it is safe for your specific medical condition.
