I'm a bit worried about heart health and wanted to ask. What are some early signs I should watch out for that might suggest a heart attack? And how long do those symptoms usually last before it gets serious? Also, I've heard about angina and heart attacks, but I'm not quite sure how they're different. Could you explain that for me?

View allI'm feeling really worried because I've been having these sharp chest pains, especially on the left side when I breathe heavily. Sometimes it comes with a really bad headache and neck pain, plus I'm getting breathless a lot. My throat feels sore too, and I just can't seem to relax or focus at work anymore. I get tired really fast and all my energy just drains away. I spoke to my family doctor, but he just said it's work stress and my eating habits causing gastric issues. I'm not sure that's all it is. Do you think there's something more going on that I should be looking into?
gastritis one cause and do ECG to rule out heart problem

I've been feeling palpitations at night, and I'm a bit worried about it. My triglycerides level was 209, but my 2D Echo and ECG came back normal. My thyroid levels are also within limits. I don't feel any pain, just these palpitations. What could be causing them, and should I be concerned?
It's good that you have already done some tests to rule out any serious issues. Palpitations can sometimes be caused by anxiety or stress. However, since you are still experiencing them, it's important to consider other factors. One common cause of palpitations is caffeine intake. Try to reduce your caffeine consumption, especially in the afternoon and evening. Additionally, make sure you are staying hydrated and getting enough sleep. If the palpitations persist, you can try taking a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate. If the symptoms continue, it's best to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.
