I'm a 33-year-old guy, and I've just been told I have a myocardiac bridge 1520. Lately, I've had a bit of right chest pain, some tightness, and I'm feeling kind of weak. Can you help me understand what's going on with me? I'm really curious and a bit worried.

Myocardial bridge is a condition where a segment of one of the coronary arteries tunnels through the myocardium rather than resting on top of it. This can lead to symptoms such as chest pain, tightness, and weakness. In your case, with a myocardial bridge of 15-20%, it is important to manage your symptoms and monitor for any changes. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can take medications such as Beta-blockers like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to reduce the workload on your heart and relieve chest pain. Additionally, Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets can be used for acute chest pain relief. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your condition.

I'm having these heart palpitations in my chest, left arm, and left leg for months now. They get worse at night and right after I wake up. Plus, I often feel really tired and out of breath. It's so frustrating and starting to affect my mood. Do you think this is something to do with my heart, or could it be linked to anxiety and depression?

It is important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. However, based on your symptoms of heart palpitations, tiredness, breathlessness, and irritability, it is possible that you may be experiencing a cardiac issue. It is recommended to get an ECG (Electrocardiogram) done to evaluate your heart's electrical activity. In the meantime, you can take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) 25mg once daily to help with the heart palpitations. Additionally, if anxiety and depression are contributing to your symptoms, you can consider taking Sertraline (brand name: Zoloft) 50mg once daily to help manage these conditions.

I'm currently taking Concor Cor 2.5 mg for my palpitations, and I've been on it for about two months now. I'm thinking about stopping it, but I'm not sure if I can just stop taking it all of a sudden or if there's something specific I need to do. Can I just stop taking it, or is there a specific process I should follow?

No u cannot stop it suddenly it may worsen the symptoms..So better not to stop the medication
