Suggest Treatment For Hyper Acidity With Chest Pain
dear doctor, i am a diabetic,age 67 yrs,wt.75 kgs.am suffering from hyperacidity. recently, after a bout of acidity, i developed a chest pain. sent for an ecg, and echo test. the ecg was clear, but the echo says there is a thickening of the aorta valve. what do i do?
hyperacidity and heart valve "thickening" unrelated. seek cardiologist (heart doctor) to monitor your aortic valve (thickening can happen with age) but if echocardiogram was within normal function nothing further would need done for now besides monitoring. For hyperacidity try over the counter acid suppressing medications Pepcid/zantac/protonix/etc.
