I'm having some neck and shoulder pain and got an ECG done. The results mentioned something called "middling left axis deviation." Can you explain what this might mean?

Due to neck and shoulders pain, the ECG showing middling left axis deviation may indicate a possible heart condition. It is recommended to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief.

Question

Angioplasty with stent placement was done on me about 2 years ago. I'm on a daily South Indian diet and I'm curious if you could help recommend an ideal diet plan that's still in line with South Indian cuisine. We usually cook with unrefined Gingelly oil, and I'm wondering if that's a healthy choice or if I should be considering a different type of oil. Any advice?

I've been experiencing this strange feeling in my heart lately. Its like a drop or a rush of adrenaline, and it's been happening more often. When it does, it really scares me. It's almost like my heart skips a beat or slows down. What could be going on?
