I'm feeling a lot of pain in the upper muscles of my chest, even though I can breathe normally. It feels like there's pressure on my chest. I recently had a chest X-ray, and the doctor said it was normal. I've got acidity, and I'm not sure if that's what's causing this much pain. It sometimes feels like I might fall over, but my blood pressure and sugar levels are normal. I'm really anxious about my health. I've already taken all the reports; CT scan for my brain was normal, and liver, kidney, and thyroid are also fine. I even checked cardio and took a TMT which came back negative. But both the right and left chest muscles are still hurting. What should I do?

I'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 confused about my recent echo results. Two months ago, it showed mild tricuspid valve regurgitation, and after making some lifestyle changes and a follow-up echo, it's now showing trivial regurgitation and valve thickening. I'm not sure what these changes mean or what I should do next. Can you help me understand what's going on and what steps I should take to address this? I've included my report if that helps.
Based on the information provided, it seems like there has been an improvement in the tricuspid valve regurgitation from mild to trivial, which is a good sign. To address the trivial regurgitation and valve thickening, I recommend continuing with your healthy lifestyle changes and following up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In terms of medication, you can consider taking a diuretic like Lasix (furosemide) to help reduce any fluid buildup and ease the workload on the heart. Additionally, an ACE inhibitor like Lisinopril can help reduce blood pressure and lessen the strain on the heart. It's important to have regular follow-up appointments with your doctor to monitor any changes in your condition and adjust your treatment plan accordingly. If you have any symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, or swelling, please seek medical attention promptly. Remember, lifestyle modifications, medication adherence, and regular medical follow-ups are key in managing heart conditions.
