I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest for the past 8 months, since September. I've already done ECG, Echo, TMT, and various blood tests but everything came back normal. The pain comes and goes, but in the last few days, it's been bothering me again. On top of that, I'm experiencing body pain too. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

It sounds like you have been experiencing left side chest pain for quite some time, despite normal results from various tests. Since the pain has started again recently and you are also experiencing body pain, it may be helpful to try a medication like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg for pain relief. You can take 1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours as needed for chest and body pain. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

View allI'm a bit concerned about my health and would really appreciate some advice. Back in May 2017, I had an angioplasty and have been keeping up with my meds and exercises since then. Currently, I'm on cilacar for my blood pressure and crevast 7510. I used to take ecosprin 7520, but my ENT doctor suggested that it could have been causing my nasal block and sinus issues. I've had two nasal surgeries to remove polyps, and I've been on crevast for the past month. So, I'm just wondering how often I should be getting my ECG, treadmill, echo, and other tests done. I've been doing lab tests every three months and everything's come back normal. Any guidance on this would be really helpful.
it is important to monitor your heart health regularly. Since you have already been taking lab tests once every three months and they have been normal, it is recommended to continue with this frequency for now. Additionally, it is advisable to undergo an ECG, treadmill test, and echo once every 6-12 months to assess your heart function and overall cardiovascular health. However, the frequency of these tests may vary based on your individual health condition and any specific recommendations from your cardiologist.

I'm having regular chest pain, along with pain in my left arm and leg. I'm not sure how to get treatment for this. Could you help me understand what's going on and how I might address it? I'm feeling a bit worried about these symptoms.
The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to musculoskeletal issues or even cardiovascular problems. It is important to first rule out any serious conditions by consulting with a healthcare professional. However, for relief from pain, you can take over-the-counter pain medication such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a topical pain relief cream or gel to the affected areas can also help. Make sure to rest and avoid activities that worsen the pain. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and treatment.

My mom has severe pulmonary stenosis and right heart failure, and lately she's been too weak for any physical activity. She's on diuretics and lanoxin but some surgeons said she can't handle open heart surgery. What do you think would be the best treatment options or medications for her condition
Given that open heart surgery is not an option, focusing on symptom management and exploring less invasive options like balloon valvuloplasty is crucial. Medications like diuretics and digoxin (Lanoxin) should be optimized, and additional medications might be considered to manage right heart failure. Lifestyle changes, such as a heart-healthy diet and regular exercise as tolerated, can also help
