Hi,I am Dr. Andrew Rynne (Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i am trying to determine if I am having heart attack symptoms or if I just need some rest. I am a F 60 years old, overweight and i am having pain in my chest, middle to left side and cough if i breath too deeply. Very concerned, but don t want to overreact
Given your age and being overweight, coronary artery disease is definitely a concern and needs to be ruled out. Please be advised to follow up with urgent care to get an EKG done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
