I had a TMT test in February 2019 and an Echo in April 2020, and both were normal, but I'm still experiencing a lot of symptoms. I've been having chest discomfort that moves to my throat and arm for over two years now. I get ECGs done twice every month since 2019, and they only show sinus tachycardia. How long should I trust the normal TMT results? Since it's not COVID causing this, I keep wondering if I should repeat the TMT and Echo. What do you think?

I'm curious if it's possible for someone my age, 23, to have heart problems. If it is, what might cause it? I'm hopeful for some clarity on this.

Yes, it is possible for a 23 year old to have heart problems. One possible reason could be a condition called "congenital heart disease," which means the person is born with a heart defect. Other reasons could include infections, inflammatory conditions like myocarditis, or even lifestyle factors such as poor diet, lack of exercise, or substance abuse. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.

I'm experiencing a fast heart rate between 130-150 beats per minute, even though I'm not feeling anxious or tense. I recently had a 2D echo, and it came back normal. Could you let me know what medicine I could take to manage this when my heart rate spikes, and what might be causing it?

When your heart rate increases significantly despite not feeling anxious or tense, it could be due to a condition called tachycardia. In such cases, you can use a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol. The usual dosage for Metoprolol in this case would be 25-50mg orally, which can help slow down your heart rate and reduce the workload on your heart. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

What should I make of my recent ECG results that mention a sinus rhythm and the RS transition zone in 5 leads displaced to the right, but everything else seems normal? A couple of months ago, the ECG said LVH and possible lateral infarct and called it abnormal, even though it also noted a normal sinus rhythm. Back then, my blood pressure was 150100 with a pulse of 95, while now it's down to 13080 and my pulse is 81. Does this suggest an improvement in my heart condition?
