I'm 23 and every morning when I wake up, I feel this weird pain on the left side of my chest, right above my breast. It usually goes away after about 5 to 10 minutes. Should I be worried about this?

The intermittent morning chest pain on your left side, resolving within 5-10 minutes, could be related to musculoskeletal issues, such as costochondritis (inflammation of cartilage connecting ribs to breastbone) or pectoral muscle strain; however, given your age and symptom location, other possible causes, including cardiac conditions, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or anxiety, should be explored

I'm really worried because my wife is 9 months pregnant and her recent test results showed something about tricuspid TR being mild to moderate and that her RA and RV are dilated. Does this indicate a serious problem? We're really not sure what to make of this and would appreciate any advice you might have.

Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and dilated right atrium (RA) and right ventricle (RV) can be concerning during pregnancy, but the severity and management depend on various factors. It is important to follow up with your obstetrician and a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In some cases, medication may be prescribed to help with the heart condition. Your wife may be prescribed a medication like furosemide to reduce fluid retention and workload on the heart. The dosage will depend on her specific condition and should be determined by her healthcare provider. Regular monitoring and follow-up appointments are essential to ensure the well-being of both your wife and the baby.

I'm really worried about using the ziverdo kit for someone who's already taking a mix of medications, like 5mg of warfarin, 500mg of hydroxyurea, ciplar la 40, and 88mcg of thyroxin. Do you think it's safe to go ahead with the kit, or could there be some complications with these meds?

yes you can use it

I'm really worried about some recent health reports I've got. My TSH levels were high at 10.3, so my doctor increased my thyroid medication from 100mg to 125mg. Then after about 25 days, my TSH dropped to 0.70, and I was advised to cut down the medication to 75mg. I'm also confused because my TMT test came back positive for inducible myocardial ischemia, but my ECG and echocardiography were normal. The doctor is now suggesting I go for an angiogram. I'm really anxious about whether these thyroid level changes could be affecting my TMT results. Should I be rushing into getting the angiogram, and is there a real chance of having heart issues even though the ECG and echo were normal? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Yes its is due to fluctating tsh levels. U may repeat angio after 6 months.
