View allI'm feeling a pinching pain on the left side of my chest that's been bugging me for the past week. I originally thought it might just be gas and tried having soda with lime several times, which only relieved it briefly. Could there be something else going on, or is it really just related to gas? Could you help me figure this out?

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 worried about my mom. Her heart starts beating really fast at night and I'm not sure what to do. It's kind of freaking me out. Can you help?
Palpitations can be caused by various factors. In this case, it is important to first consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis. However, to help alleviate the symptoms, you can consider giving your mother a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The usual dosage for palpitations is around 25-50mg once or twice daily, as prescribed by a healthcare professional. Additionally, it is important to ensure your mother is staying hydrated, managing stress levels, and getting adequate rest.
