I've had this stabbing pain right in the middle of my chest that I've been dealing with since I woke up one morning. It feels sharp, especially when I inhale deeply, sneeze, or put any pressure on my chest. I tried taking pain relievers and some NSAIDs, and after about a week, the pain mostly went away, but I still feel it when I move or squeeze my chest too much. It's been 3 months since then, and the day after this pain started, I caught influenza. I did visit a general doctor, but they said it might be from the flu or just because I slept wrong and put too much pressure on my chest. I'm really worried about what this could be. Could it actually be something more serious?

Can having conditions like splenomegaly or GERD cause left axis deviation on an ECG even if there aren't any other abnormalities? My cardiologist mentioned that having LAD in my case is normal since there aren't any additional issues, but I'm worried. Should I be concerned about this?
Left axis deviation can be a normal finding in some people, if not accompanied by any other cardiac findings orbsymptoms. And it has nothing to do with gerd or spleenomegaly.

I'm really concerned because over the last three months, I've been noticing that my heart occasionally skips a beatit happens about an hour a day. My blood pressure is also around 14090. I've had some tests done, like an echo and a Holter monitor, and my doctor mentioned something about trivial mitral regurgitation. Should I be worried about this and the skipped heartbeats? What does all of this mean for my heart health?
Trivial mitral regurgitation is a common finding and usually does not cause any symptoms or require treatment. As for the skipped heart beats, if they are occasional and not causing any other symptoms, they may not be concerning. However, since you are experiencing them frequently, it would be best to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to manage your symptoms by reducing stress and anxiety. If your doctor deems it necessary, they may prescribe medications such as beta-blockers like Metoprolol to help regulate your heart rate and blood pressure. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations for further management.
