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.

View allI'm worried about Ciplar LA 20 and its effects on blood cholesterol levels. If someone were to take Ciplar LA 20 for a long time, could it raise their cholesterol?
Ciplar LA 20 (Propranolol) is a beta-blocker medication commonly used to treat high blood pressure, angina, and certain heart rhythm disorders. It is not known to increase blood cholesterol levels in the body. However, it is important to monitor cholesterol levels regularly, as beta-blockers can sometimes affect lipid metabolism. If someone needs to take Ciplar LA 20 for a long period of time, it is important to follow up with their healthcare provider for regular check-ups and monitoring. The dosage and duration of treatment should be determined by a healthcare professional based on individual needs and response to the medication.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I've been having a lot of symptoms since I recovered from COVID back in July. I still don't feel completely better. Lately, I've been having chest pain on the left side and near my shoulder blade, and my left hand feels heavy, with some pain in my armpit. There's this weird pressure in the center of my upper chest, but it doesn't hurt. Bending or moving around makes my chest hurt too, but it's sort of bearable. Plus, I often get this numb feeling in my head, like pins and needles, though it doesn't really hurt. Sometimes I get headaches as well. I did an ECG and a 2D echo three months ago and everything was normal, but I'm attaching the latest ECG I just had done today. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
Based on your symptoms and history of Covid-19, it is important to consider the possibility of post-Covid complications such as myocarditis or pericarditis. The chest pain, left shoulder blade pain, heaviness in the left hand, and pressure in the upper chest could be indicative of cardiac issues. Since your recent ECG is available, it would be important to review it for any acute changes. I recommend starting a course of aspirin to help with any potential inflammation and to prevent blood clots. Additionally, you can take a proton pump inhibitor like omeprazole to protect your stomach while on aspirin. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and possible additional tests such as a cardiac MRI. Medication: - Aspirin 75mg once daily - Omeprazole 20mg once daily
