Brief Answer:
Get MRI scan done.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have read your query.

For heart and arm pain you should immediately go to ER with all your reports of investigation s done.

Leg pain may be due to many reasons including, nerve compression Iumbar region, stenosis of spinal canal, leg cramp etc.

So I advise you to get MRI of lumbosacral spine done and send me the report.

Till then you can take aceclofenac + thiocochicoside combination three times a day, pregabalin at night by discussing it with your family doctor.

Apply hot packs for 30 mins in morning and evening.

Back and leg stretching exercises as uploaded on youtube.

Drink a lot of water.

If fasting blood sugar levels are normal then you can take fruits and juices.

I hope it helps.

Thanks.

Dr.Singh.
