Detailed Answer:
Hi
Welcome to HCM
Thank you for your query
I understand your concern
Possibly you have a sensitive stomach and some gas problems.
Your reports looks OK and unlikely much concern
Worthwhile getting an ecg thyroid function tests if not done earlier.
Also can consider doing an endoscopy and stool examination done to rule out any ulcer disease.
Along with medication you are taking can try following things and see how you feel
Ensure adequate water intake
Have high fiber diet
Go for regular brisk walk
Avoid sleeping two hours after meals
Avoid stress if any
Sleep at least 7 to 8 hours a day
All this will help you in long run
In addition if symptoms are really trouble some then worthwhile meeting a gastroenterology specialist who can give medication to reduce the sensitivity of your stomach
Hope this answers your questions
Wish you a speedy recovery
Happy to help

many thanks for your time & reply.
You have asked for ecg thyroid function test- is this a single test or ECG & TFT is different.
I have undergone stool test, blood test, ESR report of which I missed to attach earlier. Is this report will do or I have undergo another stool test?
I do found some pain in my abdomen but the pain is light and 2-3 times in a day.
I have found that when I am little stressed due to work or family reason or when I think too much about my pain I feel more pain and discomfort in whole of my abdomen.
Apart from this I also feel little tired.
Pain in chest & in heart is also there but frequency of pain is reduced.
Kindly let me know if the medicine which I have been asked to take for a month is ok or I have to change the doctor.

Sorry for the delay in responding.
Well ecg and thyroid function tests are different.
The reports you have send me look OK.
Stool test preferably need to be done on three different days to look for any infection or occult blood. Worthwhile getting a endoscopy donevif no relief.
Stress is known to aggrevate problems so avoid it as far as possible.
Continue same medications and see how you feel.
Best wishes
