I had a cardiac arrest back in 2007 and they found 25% blockage after an angiography at the hospital in Mumbai. Lately, for the last 15 days or so, I've been feeling weak pretty regularly. Had a Doppler and 2D echo test done in Jodhpur recently, and the doctor told me my heart is working at only 20%. I'm really concerned about this. What should I do next?

I've been experiencing a pricking pain on the top left side of my chest and some slight breathing difficulties, especially when I talk. Plus, I've noticed an extra heartbeat occasionally. My GP suggested an ECG, and I'm wondering if there's anything serious going on here. About three months ago, I had a similar issue but my tests like an echo came back normal. Should I be concerned or take any further action?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations and some chest discomfort. Since your ECG, VOLT, and echo results are normal, it is good news that there are no major underlying issues. To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) 25mg twice daily to help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. Additionally, you can take Ibuprofen (brand name: Advil) 400mg as needed for any chest discomfort. Make sure to follow up with your GP for further evaluation and management.
