Dear sir ,
Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX
Well you havent wrote what is your question about . What i could interpret is that you suffered from angina thats why all these testing was done but why were you started on Acetrom when everything is normal . Were your cardiac enzymes raised or some other issue. Kindly elaborate your problem.
Take care.

I had the accident in Feb 2012, and suffered from pulmonary thrombosis. so doctor has preferred Ascitrom now i have the left side chest pain dr has preferred Sampraz D20,and Rozucor ASP 10 for 30 days.
Dear Sir,
Thanks for getting back.
Left sided chest pain can be a symptom of many diseases . Even if your ECG is normal it cannot exclude angina as it is a dynamic process . First thing is to exclude any cardiac etiology so i would suggest you to see a cardiologist and get a 2D - ECHO and coronary angiography done to completely exclude it .
Your treating doctor has prescribed Sampraz D 20 which acts against acidity as he possibly thought the pain is due to acid peptic disorder which can be a possibility. The other one is Rosuvastatin that corrects the lipid profile and also reduces the cardiac event risk.
You can keep taking these medicines . A Chest x XXXXXXX will also be required to see for any pulmonary cause.
Take care.
