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 chest pain for the past two years and have already done tests like HLA B27 by PCR, ECG, 2D Echo, TMT, and a CT Coronary Angiography. All the results have come back normal, but I'm still dealing with this left-sided chest pain. My recent blood tests show HS CRP is 9.7, Lipoprotein A is 35.09, SGOT is 70.9, SGPT is 88.4, and GGT is 80.9. Now my doctor wants me to do a 2D Echo with a GLS test. What do you think is going on? Is there something specific my doctor might be looking for with this new test?

I've been keeping an eye on my blood pressure lately, and it's been around 140100. I've noticed I'm getting headaches more frequently. Should I be worried about these numbers or the headaches? Is this something I need to get checked out or change in my routine? Any advice would be really helpful.
A blood pressure of 140100 is considered high and can contribute to headaches. I recommend you start taking Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, you can take Acetaminophen (brand name Tylenol) 500mg for your headaches as needed, up to 3 times a day. Remember to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake and increasing physical activity.
