I've been experiencing chest pain and headaches lately. I got an ECG done, and it came back normal, but I still don't feel right. I'm having trouble eating and walking properly too. Recently, I had milk and curd together, and I'm wondering if that could be causing these issues. Could you suggest any remedies or possible causes?

It hasn't gone away, and on top of that, I've been dealing with chest pains for the last couple of days, especially when I lie down to sleep. Do you think I should see a doctor about this?

I'm really concerned about my father who is 56 and had pneumonia during his COVID infection. Although he's now COVID-negative, he's been prescribed Voritrol 200mg. I'm worried because he had a stent placed four years ago, is on blood thinners, and also has diabetes. Can you tell me if it's safe for him to take Voritrol given his medical history?
