I'm a 41-year-old guy and I've been dealing with this chest pain on my left side along with some breathing issues for about 20 days now. I had an ECG and Stress Echo, and both came out normal. I'm really confused about what could be causing this pain since it's been going on for so long. Can you recommend any medications or maybe some other tests that might help figure out what's going on? I'd really appreciate any guidance you can offer.

View allI'm really worried about what's happening with my health. So, I had a brain stroke about 2 months ago, and my doctor recommended getting an Echo cardiogram. The test showed something called "Reduced diastolic compliance". I'm not sure what this means. Is this something serious? Should I be really concerned about it?
This means that the heart is having difficulty relaxing and filling with blood during the resting phase of the cardiac cycle. This condition can lead to symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and fluid retention. To improve diastolic compliance, the doctor may prescribe medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril at a dosage of 10-20mg daily. Additionally, Beta-blockers like Metoprolol at a dosage of 25-50mg daily may also be recommended. It is important to follow up with the doctor regularly to monitor and manage this condition.

I'm feeling a sharp, current-like pain whenever I'm doing household chores or lifting my child. It lasts for a few minutes. I've had an ECG and an echo done, and both came back normal. I'm really struggling to get things done around the house because of this pain. Any idea what it might be or what I can do about it?
Ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the patient.

I'm a bit worried because I had an Eco ECG TMT and some blood tests done about a month ago, and everything came back normal. But now, for the past two days, I've been having this pain in my left chest, especially when I'm trying to sleep. It's hard to get comfortable, and breathing seems to make it worse when I'm lying down. Any idea why this is happening if all my tests were normal? Could you suggest any painkillers that might help?
