I'm having this chest pain since the afternoon and it's really close to my heart. The pain isn't going away and I'm a bit worried it might be a heart attack. Could you give me some advice on what to do?

Chest pain can be a serious symptom and should not be ignored. If you are experiencing continuous chest pain near your heart, it is important to seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg to help reduce the risk of a potential heart attack. Please consult with a healthcare professional as soon as possible for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

I'm worried because my cardiologist told me to take Met XL 25 for my fast heart rate, but I accidentally bought Met XL 50 instead and took it this morning. Will taking the 50 mg dose be harmful to my health? Can you help me understand if I should be concerned?
taking Met XL 50 instead of Met XL 25 once should not cause significant harm to your health. However, it is important to stick to the prescribed dosage for optimal treatment. I recommend informing your cardiologist about the mix-up and following their guidance on whether to continue with Met XL 50 or switch back to Met XL 25 at the correct dosage.

Is it possible for a 25-year-old female who just had surgery for a 35mm ASD heart issue to live a normal life afterward, or are there likely to be any complications?
After 35mm ASD heart surgery, it is possible to have a normal life with proper care and follow-up. However, there may be some complications that can arise post-surgery, such as infection, bleeding, arrhythmias, or fluid accumulation around the heart. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations for medications and follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery progress. As for medications, you may be prescribed antibiotics to prevent infection, blood thinners to prevent clot formation, and pain medication as needed. Additionally, you may need to take medications to manage any underlying heart conditions. It is important to follow a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, a balanced diet, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption to support your recovery and overall heart health.
