I'm experiencing this strange chest pain or maybe a strain when I turn my neck or just walk around. I'm not really sure if it's something to do with nerves or maybe just gas. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI'm really worried about my dad. He's been taking ecosprin AV but he's been having some abdomen pain, so the doctor suggested a USG, and they also mentioned theyll do a TMT test. In the meantime, they've switched his medication from ecosprin AV to a mix of Telmisartan and Metaprolol Succinate until they can do the TMT test. Unfortunately, we couldn't get the USG and TMT tests done today. Is it safe for him to stop taking ecosprin AV for now?
it is advisable to follow your doctor's instructions regarding medication changes. In this case, since your father's medication has been changed from Ecosprin AV to Telmisartan and Metoprolol Succinate combination, it is important to continue with the new medication as prescribed. Once the TMT test and USG are conducted, the doctor will be able to provide further guidance based on the results. It is generally not recommended to stop medication abruptly without consulting the doctor. Therefore, please continue with the Telmisartan and Metoprolol Succinate combination as advised by the doctor

I'm really puzzled about my mom's test results. Her echocardiogram showed an LVEF of 40-45, but a recent cardiac MRI said it's just 25. This just doesn't seem right because she's not showing any serious symptomsno shortness of breath, no swelling in her legs or stomach. She goes about her day without any issues at all. Could there be an error with the cardiac MRI?
It is possible that there could be a discrepancy between the two imaging tests. However, it is important to follow up with your cardiologist to discuss these findings and determine the best course of action. In the meantime, medications like Carvedilol (Coreg) at a dosage of 6.25mg twice daily and Lisinopril (Zestril) at a dosage of 5mg once daily can be considered to help improve heart function.
