I'm really worried about my husband. He's been having chest pain on the left side since the beginning of September. He quit smoking around that time, and now he's also experiencing tightness in his chest and suddenly started having acid reflux. The chest pain has gotten worse, and it's been sharp and in the upper part of his left chest for the last three days. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

But oddly enough, he's able to sleep comfortably. Should I be concerned about this imbalance, and is there something specific I should be looking into or doing for him?

I'm really worried about my health. I've been dealing with chest discomfort, gastric issues, and health anxiety for the last two years. Last year, I went through several tests like ECG, echo, TMT, blood tests, and even checked troponin levels twice, but everything came back normal. I also had deficiencies in vitamin D and B12, for which I took injections and tablets. Now, for the past two weeks, I've been feeling that high gastric indigestion and chest discomfort again. Yesterday, I did another ECG, and it showed a slight ST depression in V5, but I was really anxious at the time. Could this be just anxiety, or is there something serious going on? I'm really concerned about this.
It's good to know that your previous cardiac tests and blood work have come back normal. Based on the symptoms you have described and the slight ST Depression in V5 on your recent ECG, it is important to consider both physical and psychological factors. The chest discomfort and gastric indigestion could be related to your anxiety, but it is also important to rule out any potential cardiac issues. I would recommend starting with a medication like omeprazole 20mg once daily for your gastric issues. Additionally, for anxiety, you can try taking a medication like escitalopram 10mg once daily. However, it is crucial to follow up with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation and to discuss the ECG findings. They may recommend further tests or adjustments to your treatment plan. It's also important to continue managing your anxiety through relaxation techniques, regular exercise, and counseling support. Please continue to monitor your symptoms and seek medical attention if they worsen or if you experience any new concerning symptoms

I've been worried about getting the COVID vaccine because of some heart issues. My father had an angiogram back in 2012, and though he's not on any medication now, I've occasionally felt mild heart pain that seems to go away after a bit. I'm really unsure about whether it's safe for me to get the vaccine given these concerns. Can you offer any advice on this? Is there a risk involved?
It is important to consult with a cardiologist before taking any decision regarding the Covid vaccination. However, based on the information provided, it is generally safe for individuals with a history of angiogram to receive the Covid vaccine. The benefits of vaccination in preventing severe illness and complications from Covid-19 outweigh the potential risks. It is recommended to take the vaccine to protect yourself from the virus. You can consider taking the vaccine like Covishield or Covaxin with the standard dosage schedule.
