View allSo, it's been almost 2 months now since I had COVID, and I've been dealing with some chest pain and this weird pulling sensation in my left hand and neck for the past month. I'm struggling with sleep too. I saw a doctor and had like 5 ECGs, all normal, but the pain's not really going away. It's scaring me a lot. The chest pain has reduced a bit, but now there's this pulling at my elbow and pain in my left shoulder. I had a troponin test which was at 0.04 and my blood sugar's normal too. What could this be? Is it still related to COVID?
It sounds like you are experiencing persistent chest pain, left hand pulling, and neck pain following a COVID infection. Since your ECG results have been normal and your blood tests are also normal, it is important to address your symptoms. The symptoms you are describing could be related to musculoskeletal issues or nerve irritation. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a muscle relaxant such as **Tizanidine** 2mg twice daily to help with the pulling sensation in your left hand and shoulder pain. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever such as **Ibuprofen** 400mg three times a day after meals to help with the chest pain and neck pain. It is also important to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation to help reduce your fear and anxiety. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your MD medicine doctor for further evaluation and management.

I had an ECG done yesterday, and the report said there's a long left axis deviation. Can you explain what that means? I've attached the ECG for you to check.
Long left axis deviation on an ECG can indicate various underlying conditions such as heart enlargement, high blood pressure, or conduction abnormalities. It is important to correlate this finding with your symptoms and medical history. In some cases, further evaluation such as an echocardiogram may be needed. Please follow up with your healthcare provider for a detailed evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm dealing with high blood pressure since 2020 and I often have headaches and chest pain. My average blood pressure is around 150100. My doctor has prescribed me olmesartan 20mg. Should I be concerned about these symptoms, and is the medication dosage suitable?
Since you are already taking olmesartan 20mg for your high blood pressure, it is important to continue with the medication as prescribed by your doctor. In addition to olmesartan, you can also consider adding a calcium channel blocker such as Amlodipine 5mg to further control your blood pressure. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your doctor for any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
