I understand your query and concern.

Your symptoms are suggestive of myocardial ischemia of heart lead to chest pain.

I advise you to get an ECG, 2D ECHO,Troponin I levels,lipid profile immediately to confirm the diagnosis.

Drugs like Anti platelets,Antacids,Antihypertensive a and lipid lowering drugs along with your present medication is needed.

Coronary angiogram with or without stenting will the procedure of choice.

Avoid smoking and alcohol if any.

Diet with high protein and low salt intake will be helpful.

Exercise regularly for 20- 30 min.

Consult your cardiologist for further expert management.

Post your further queries if any,

Thank you
