I'm really confused. My ECG, TMT, and 2D Echo all came back negative, but I'm still experiencing chest pain and pain in my left upper arm. What should I do next?

This could be due to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). You can try taking over-the-counter medication like Imodium (Loperamide) 2mg after meals to help reduce the frequency of bowel movements. Additionally, make sure to drink plenty of water and eat a high-fiber diet to regulate your bowel movements.

I'm a 54-year-old guy and I've been told I need a heart pacemaker. So, before I go for it, I want to know all the details. Like, how does this thing actually work? What kind of care do I need after getting one? Is it going to be comfortable to live with? And most importantly, should I be worried about any side effects from having a pacemaker?
A pacemaker is a small device that's placed in the chest or abdomen to help control abnormal heart rhythms. It uses electrical pulses to prompt the heart to beat at a normal rate. You may need a pacemaker if your heart beats too slowly, too quickly, or irregularly. After getting a pacemaker, you should avoid vigorous activities that could damage the device. It's important to attend regular follow-up appointments with your doctor to ensure the pacemaker is working properly. Most people find living with a pacemaker to be comfortable and are able to resume normal activities. However, you should avoid certain activities that can interfere with the pacemaker, such as using certain medical devices or undergoing certain medical procedures. Common side effects of a pacemaker include infection at the site of implantation, bleeding, bruising, or swelling. In rare cases, there may be complications such as a collapsed lung or a punctured blood vessel during the implantation procedure. It's important to discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider.

I've been experiencing some pain in my left armpit and the far left side of my chest, near the armpit, for almost an hour. It's not super sharp, but it's definitely something I've never felt before. It went away after a while, and I feel fine now. Do you think I should be worried about this?
Electrocardiogram is advised ,kindly review with the reports..
