Dear @jxsim Chest pain with breathlessness can be signs of serious conditions such as heart attack, pneumothorax. It is slightly reassuring to know that you have gotten blood tests and ECG performed which are normal. However I will still advise you to visit the nearest Emergency department to get further evaluation or call 995 if still feeling unwell. You will likely benefit from an Xray of the chest that can be performed in the Emergency Department as well. Hope this helps

Dear @waqashassn Throat discomfort is one of the symptoms of COVID-19 infection. You might wish to consult a doctor early and get a COVID-19 swab performed to rule out any COVID-19 infection. Hope this helps.

Hello Rocky, sounds like you sustained an injury to the Achilles which may have led to some persistent tendinitis in the tendon. Treatment is certainly available and can range from physiotherapy, injections to surgery depending on the severity. Would be good to get it checked out by a sports or ankle specialist.

0Dear @jamazecia2730 You should avoid oily food as the gallbladder acts a temporary storage of bile, to be released upon an intake of fatty/ oily food. If one's gallbladder has been removed, there will be no reservoir of bile being stored temporarily in our body to cope with oily food intake. Therefore it is advisable to reduce intake of oily, fried , fatty food in their diet. Hope this helps.

The AF indicator lighting up probably means that your mum's heart rate was irregular at that point in time. Some patients have paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, which means that the atrial fibrillation comes on spontaneously from time to time. Apixaban is an anticoagulant (a medication that prevents blood clots) prescribed to patients with atrial fibrillation to prevent blood clots and strokes. Apixaban does not restore the heart rhythm to normal.
If your mum is feeling normal and has no chest pain, breathlessness or feeling giddy, there is probably no cause for concern. You can highlight this to her regular doctor at the next scheduled check-up.
If she has any of the mentioned symptoms, then she should see a doctor.
