<s>[INST] My husband says he tore heart muscle from stress but they let him come home from hospital with no medications or instructions as for as I can tell. Does this sound reasonable? Just need to know if I should be worried bout him not taking it serious. If he did is there anything that can be done. Thanks. YYYY@YYYY [/INST] Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. I understand your concern and would explain that a tear in the muscle heart is usually related to coronary artery disease and leads to a serious medical condition. May be it is a stretched muscle in the chest wall. Anyway, I would like to directly review his cardiac ultrasound report and other blood lab tests for a more professional opinion. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. </s>
