I'm always having chest pain, and it's weird because it gets worse when I'm sitting but seems to get better with walking, exercising, or lying down. This usually kicks in after sitting for over 2 hours at my office. It's been going on for a while now. Can anyone help figure out what might be going on?

I'm really struggling to understand my heart issues. For someone who's been dealing with heart problems for 34 years, it's tough to know what's happening. I have diastolic relaxation abnormality, and my TMT was mildly positive, but that was dismissed with a normal CT angiography. I often feel my heart skip a beat with a thud during exercise and even at rest. My exercise tolerance seems to be getting worse, and my heart rate jumps past 130 after just a few minutes of daily activity, though it calms to 60s bpm in the morning. I often feel dizzy, weak, and fatigued. The ECGs say I have LVH, but the echo says normal LVM. Can diastolic relaxation abnormality indicate heart failure? Is the ECG more reliable than the echo for identifying LVH? And should I be comfortable trusting the CT angio results? Any insights would really help clarify things for me.

1. Diastolic relaxation abnormality does not necessarily mean you have heart failure, but it does indicate that your heart's ability to relax and fill with blood is impaired. It is a condition that can progress and should be monitored and managed carefully by your healthcare provider. 2. The echocardiogram (echo) is generally considered more accurate for assessing left ventricular mass (LVM) and structure, so you can trust the echo results over the ECG for diagnosing LVH. 3. A normal CT angiography report is generally reliable and indicates that your coronary arteries do not have significant blockages. Given your symptoms of skipped heartbeats, exercise intolerance, dizziness, and fatigue, it's important to follow up with your cardiologist. They may need to reassess your condition and consider other diagnostic tests or treatment changes. Continuous monitoring and a thorough evaluation by your healthcare provider are essential to address your concerns and ensure proper management of your heart health.

I'm really worried about a loved one who's at risk for a heart attack. I've been reading a bit and came across the term "loading dose." Could you explain when it's appropriate to use a loading dose for someone having a heart attack? Also, I'm curious about how it should be administered to a person. Lastly, could you walk me through the basic steps of first aid for a heart attack?

without knowledge and proper indication you are not supposed to give such medicines.
