I've been having chest pain and got a 2D echo, ECG, blood work, and an X-ray done. The doctor said everything looks normal, but I noticed some black marks on the left side of the diaphragm in the X-ray. Could you tell me what these might be? I'm a bit concerned.

I'm a bit concerned because my ECG showed some middling left axis deviation and my cholesterol levels aren't great either. On top of that, I've been having this back pain that seems to radiate to my hand. Could these issues be related somehow? Should I be worried about any underlying health problems connecting these symptoms? Any advice on what steps I should take next?

Based on your description of middling left axis deviation on ECG, high cholesterol levels, and radiating back pain to your hand, it is important to address these issues. For middling left axis deviation on ECG, it is recommended to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. For high cholesterol levels, you can start taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dose of 10-20 mg once daily to help lower your cholesterol levels. For your back pain radiating to your hand, you can take Ibuprofen (brand name Advil) at a dose of 400 mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, you may benefit from physical therapy to address the underlying cause of your back pain. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm taking Metocard XL 12.5 once daily as prescribed by my doctor. My blood pressure is currently at 11276 and my pulse is 59. Is it okay to take the medication just once a day, or should I consider twice daily?

The medication prescribed to you, Metocard XL 12.5, is typically taken once a day for the management of high blood pressure. Since your current blood pressure is within normal range (11276) and your pulse rate is 59, it seems that once daily dosing is appropriate for you. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and frequency of the medication.
