Suggest treatment for pain in heart area
Patient: I had an EKG done today because I was complaining to my doctor about palpitations / brain fog. The EKG showed that I might have an enlarged heart. I'm currently experiencing some pain localized around my heart. I have a history of partial pneumothorax in my lung on that side. Should I go to the ER? Doctor: Hi Dear XXX! I have gone through your question and I understand your concern . According to what you write and the fact that you have  the pain , Yes you should go to the ER. It's necessary to rule out any heart problem the one that I'm concern about we call it angina pectoris . You have an enlarged heart and also palpitations , foggy brain the doctor will do an ECG  to find if the pain comes from the heart.After the doctor rule out heart problem , it has to confirm if  you have again pneumothorax with a chest X- ray .Meanwhile relax , don't do any physical effort that can worsen the pain.Wish you good health!Thank you for using HCM If you have any other questions please feel free to ask me .
