I'm a 28-year-old female and I've been experiencing this pain between my breastbone. It happened again today while I was sleeping, and it lasted for about 3 to 4 hours. I remember feeling the same thing around 4 months ago, but it also only happens during sleep. I have no medical history to speak of. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

I'm curious about my recent test results. My TMT came back positive for reverse myocardial ischemia, but the rest of my tests, like my lipid profile, were normal, aside from my high blood pressure. The doctor gave me meds for the BP, but seemed pretty concerned about the TMT results. Could it be possible that the TMT was a false positive since everything else seems fine, except for my blood pressure being high?

An echo is advised.Yes false positive are present in some cases ..

I've been experiencing a sharp pain on the left side of my chest for a few seconds when I'm exercising, like jumping or running. It's been happening since last week. I've had an ECG, 2D echo, and TMT done last month and everything came back normal. I also get gas pain in my chest. But this pain specifically seems to come in the morning while I'm working out. Should I be worried that this is something serious?

Based on your description, it is possible that the chest pain you are experiencing during exercise could be due to musculoskeletal causes or related to gas pain. Since your ECG, 2D echo, and TMT tests were normal, it is less likely to be related to your heart. To help alleviate the gas pain, you can try over-the-counter antacids like **Tums** (dosage: as directed on the package) to relieve gas and bloating. Additionally, for musculoskeletal chest pain, you can try taking **Ibuprofen** (dosage: 400mg-800mg every 6 hours as needed) for pain relief. However, if the chest pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm currently undergoing treatment for tuberculosis, and I've noticed I have a heart murmur. I had an echo done, and everything seemed normal, but I'm experiencing high palpitations. Is it common to have a heart murmur while on TB medication? Should I be worried about the palpitations, or is this just a normal side effect?

Cardiologist opinion is advised to the patient.
