I've been having pain on the left side of my neck and shoulder for the past couple of weeks, and sometimes I feel some chest pain too. I went to the doctor and got an ECG, but it came back normal. I'm not sure what to do next. Should I see a cardiologist or maybe an orthopedic doctor? It's really starting to worry me, and I'd appreciate some advice on the next steps.

I had an emergency angioplasty with one stent a year ago, and now my medications have changed. I'm now taking Aztogold once a day. I'm wondering how long I'll need to keep taking this medicine?

You should continue taking Atorvastatin (Aztogold) as prescribed by your doctor. It is commonly recommended to take statins like Atorvastatin long-term to help manage cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further heart complications. The duration of treatment may vary depending on your individual health condition and risk factors. It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding the duration of treatment with Atorvastatin.

Should I be concerned, or is there something else I should be checking for?
