I've been dealing with this chest weakness for the past three days, but I dont have any fever, cough, or cold. I'm starting to worry because I've heard that chest weakness can be a symptom of COVID-19. Should I go and get a test?

It's understandable to be concerned about your symptoms. Chest weakness can have various causes, and while COVID-19 often presents with fever, cough, or cold symptoms, it can sometimes show atypical signs.

Key points to consider:

  1. Symptom monitoring: Keep track of any new symptoms such as fever, cough, shortness of breath, or fatigue.
  2. Risk factors: Consider any recent exposure to COVID-19 or high-risk environments.
  3. Testing: If you have had potential exposure or if symptoms worsen or new symptoms develop, getting a COVID-19 test is advisable.
  4. Medical evaluation: Since chest weakness can be related to other health issues, if the symptom persists or worsens, consult a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation.

In summary, while your current symptoms alone may not strongly suggest COVID-19, testing can be a prudent step if you have exposure risks or if symptoms change. Meanwhile, monitor your health closely and seek medical advice if needed.

I'm really worried and need to know how to use sorbitrate. Should I take it right when I start feeling heart pain, or is there some other way I should be taking it? Please help me understand the right way to use this medication.

Sorbitrate (Isosorbide Dinitrate) works quickly to relieve chest pain caused by angina. It is usually taken at the first sign of chest pain. The usual dosage is 2.5 to 5 mg sublingually (under the tongue) and may be repeated every 5 minutes for a maximum of 3 doses. It is important to follow the specific dosing instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Remember to seek emergency medical attention if your chest pain persists or worsens after taking Sorbitrate.

I've got my ECG results, and it mentions left axis deviation and early repolarization. I'm 21 and male, and I'm really confused about what this means for my health. Should I be worried about being medically unfit? What should I do next?

You should show your ECG report to a physician to get a clearer picture of your condition. Left axis deviation can be seen in various conditions, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block and even inferior wall myocardial infarction. Early repolarisation refers to ST segment elevation with no underlying cause.
