What are 'general health' blood tests?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I took a blood report voluntarily myself. Kindly see the report and tell me about my heart status. I feel some pain below my left chest. Is any sign in the blood report seen?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hello Doctor, I have been experiencing a burning sensation in my chest for the past 4 days. I consulted a doctor, and they advised me to get an ECG. I have received the report and will meet the doctor tomorrow. I am attaching the report. Could you please evaluate it?
