I've been experiencing this persistent pain on the edge and upper part of my left chest for more than a year now. Sometimes it feels like a burning sensation and other times it's more like a squeezing feeling from inside. I'm getting pretty worried about what might be going on. Which type of doctor should I reach out to for this issue?

View allI'm a bit worried because my ECG test came back with something called Diagnosed402 pre-excitement syndrome. Is this dangerous? I'm also dealing with hypothyroidism, high eosinophils, and an increased red blood cell count. Can you shed some light on what all this means for my health?
Your ECG findings of pre-excitation syndrome (WPW syndrome) can sometimes lead to dangerous arrhythmias, especially in the presence of other medical conditions like hypothyroidism, elevated eosinophils, and high RBC count. It is important to manage these conditions to reduce the risk of complications. For pre-excitation syndrome, medications like **Procainamide** can be used to control arrhythmias. However, in some cases, a procedure called catheter ablation may be recommended to correct the abnormal electrical pathway in the heart. For hypothyroidism, you may need to take **Levothyroxine** to replace the deficient thyroid hormone. Elevated eosinophils may indicate allergies or parasitic infections, and treatment with antihistamines or anti-parasitic medications may be necessary. High RBC count can be managed by addressing the underlying cause, such as dehydration or lung disease. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm having chest pain on the left side and it's been going on for quite a while now. I've had some tests done and it turns out there's a blockage in my heart. Do you think I should see a surgeon about this?
Based on your symptoms and test results showing blockage in your heart, you may need to start taking medications to manage your condition. One common medication prescribed for this is Aspirin, which helps to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack. The usual dosage for Aspirin in this case is 75mg to 325mg per day. Additionally, a statin medication like Atorvastatin may be prescribed to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages. The typical starting dose for Atorvastatin is 10mg to 20mg once daily. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management of your heart condition.
