View allI'm really worried because I've been having pain in my left chest every day for the past 10 months. I've done about 20 ECGs, a 2D echo, and a TMT test a month ago, all of which came back normal. The high sensitivity troponin test was normal, and so were my chest X-ray, random blood sugar, and CBC tests. I've been to the cardiologist three times, and he keeps saying it's not a heart issue, but the pain in my left chest, left hand, and upper left back is still there. I'm scared it might be a heart attack. What other tests should I consider, and which type of doctor should I see next?
Since the cardiac evaluations have come back normal and your cardiologist has ruled out any heart-related issues, the persistent left chest pain could be due to musculoskeletal problems or other non-cardiac causes. I would recommend consulting a Rheumatologist to evaluate for conditions such as costochondritis or fibromyalgia. Additionally, you may consider getting a CT scan or MRI of the chest to further investigate any potential structural issues. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) for symptomatic relief.

I've been diagnosed with pelvic floor dyssynergia and my doctor recommended biofeedback therapy. Is there an effective Ayurvedic treatment for this condition? I'm open to either surgery or medicine but want to know what works best.
Bio feedback is the best treatment for this. You can search for alternative options but start following this.

I've been dealing with acid reflux and had an endoscopy that came back normal, but my 24-hour pH monitoring showed a DeMeester score of 17.6. Does this mean I'm a candidate for antireflux surgery, or do I have to stay on meds for life? Can I choose surgery instead?
patient is reffered for gastroenterologist opinion.
