I've been having some chest pain that moves around a bit - sometimes it's on the left side, other times in the middle. I walk 5 km every day and I don't feel any pain when I walk, which is odd. About a year and a half ago, I had a TMT, Echo, and ECG done, and everything came back normal. Since then, I've had four more ECGs, and they're all normal too. I attached my latest ECG here. I'm just wondering, is there anything else I can do to really make sure this isn't a heart-related issue? The pain mostly hits when I'm sitting, so I can't figure out what's going on. Could it really be non-cardiac?

"Hello, based on your description and the normal results of your TMT, Echo, and multiple ECG tests, it is less likely that the chest pain is related to a cardiac issue. Since the pain occurs mostly when you are sitting, it could be musculoskeletal or related to gastric issues. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Ranitidine 150mg twice daily before meals to see if it helps with the pain. Additionally, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. If the pain persists or worsens, further evaluation by a healthcare provider may be necessary."

I've had mild chest pain for years and my doctor recommended an angiography which showed blockages in my arteries. The report says there's a 40-50% mid-segment stenosis in the LM artery, 90% stenosis in the LAD at S1 D1 level with diffuse distal disease, and severe blockages in LCx (70-80% ostial), OM1 (80% ostial), OM2 (90% diffuse). RCA also has 90% stenosis in ostial PDA and PLV. Given these findings, is bypass surgery the best option for me or are there other treatments I should consider?

cardiologist opinion is advised.

Can I take ursolic 300 along with roseday gold 10 and teli cm 25? Is it safe to use all these medicines together? I'm a little worried about possible interactions or side effects. What do you think?

When considering taking Ursolic 300 (ursodeoxycholic acid) along with Roseday Gold 10 (a combination of rosuvastatin, aspirin, and clopidogrel) and Teli CM 25 (a combination of telmisartan and chlorthalidone), it is important to consult your healthcare provider to ensure safety and appropriateness. These medications have different mechanisms of action and can interact in various ways. While Ursolic 300 is used for liver-related issues, Roseday Gold addresses cardiovascular risk factors, and Teli CM is used for hypertension. Your doctor will need to consider your overall health, liver and kidney function, and any potential interactions or side effects. Therefore, always consult with your healthcare provider before combining these medications to ensure they are safe for your specific health conditions
