I'm a bit concerned about a recent cardiologist appointment where I was suspected of having an ASD. I'm already taking some home remedies like apple cider vinegar and cinnamon. I've heard about another Ayurvedic medicine called Terminalia Arjuna that's quite common in the market. I'm curious if it's safe to take that while I'm still consulting with an allopathic cardiologist. Would it be okay to try?

Terminalia Arjuna is an Ayurvedic medicine commonly used for heart health. While it may have some benefits, it is important to consult with your cardialogist before adding any new medication to your regimen. They will be able to advise you on the safety and potential interactions of Terminalia Arjuna with your current allopathic treatment.

View allIve done all the heart tests like ECG and echocardiogram stress test, and everythings come back normal. But I still feel really anxious and notice my heart beating really fast. Should I be worried about this? Is there a chance it could be a sign of a heart attack or something serious?
It's good to hear that your heart tests have come back normal. Your symptoms of feeling anxious and experiencing a fast heart rate could be related to anxiety. To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking propranolol (Inderal) 10mg to 20mg as needed to help with the fast heart rate and anxiety. However, if you continue to have concerns or if your symptoms worsen, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

My heart rate is usually over 100 and I've been having trouble sleeping too. I recently had septoplasty surgery could these issues be related? What could be causing the high heart rate and sleep problems?
It's possible that your high heart rate and sleep problems are related to your recent septoplasty surgery, although it's not the only possibility. Both could be influenced by factors related to the surgery, such as the recovery process or any underlying issues addressed by the procedure

I'm really worried about my brother. He's been having some chest discomfort and mild pain that sometimes happens on the left side and other times in the center. He gets really nervous, and his heart rate spikes to around 90-98 bpm when this happens, but when he's more relaxed, it goes back down to about 68-72 bpm. He runs on the treadmill for 20 to 30 minutes at least five days a week and doesn't feel any discomfort during that time. Although he has an acidity and GERD problem, he's finished his course of medication and isn't taking any other tablets. His sugar and blood pressure are normal, and chest X-rays came back fine, with an orthopaedic saying it's nothing serious and just suggesting vitamins. He also feels pain at certain points when the chest is pressed. With all these symptoms, I'm wondering if it could be his heart, acidity, muscular, or maybe even a nerve issue. Do you think an angiography would be necessary given his normal reports so far?
Since all the reports are normal ,advised a psychiatric opinion for diagnosis of anxiety and other conditions..
