I'm a bit worried about my mom. She's been dealing with Diabetes and Hypertension for about 12 years now, and shes been taking medications to keep them in check. Since last November, she started on Ecosprin AV 7520 daily. I'm kind of concerned about if there are any side effects from taking it every day and whether its necessary to have Aspirin free intervals?

I'm wondering if an ECG can actually detect angina? I mean, should I be getting an ECG for just a minor or dull chest pain, even if I don't have any other symptoms?

It is recommended to get an ECG if there are symptoms of angina or any other heart-related issues. The frequency of ECGs may vary depending on individual risk factors and medical history. It is best to follow your doctor's advice on how often you should get an ECG. In case of minor or dull pain, do we need an ECG without having any other symptoms? Yes, even minor or dull chest pain should not be ignored, especially if it is recurring. It is advisable to consult a healthcare professional who may recommend an ECG to rule out any underlying heart issues, including angina.

I've been experiencing shortness of breath when I'm walking, climbing stairs, or doing physical activities. My throat gets really dry, and I feel pain in my neck and back. After eating, I often feel heaviness in my chest and have trouble breathing, and sometimes my heart races. Could these be symptoms of a heart issue? I'm really worried about it.

Im a bit worried about my heart rate. Ive noticed that when I wake up or when Im sleeping, it's usually around 80 to 90 beats per minute. But once Im up and about during the day, it jumps to over 100 and sometimes even hits 120 beats per minute. Im curious about why this is happening and what I can do to manage it. Any advice on how to handle this situation?

It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of tachycardia, which is a condition where your heart rate is consistently elevated. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan. To help manage your symptoms, you can try using a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to help regulate your heart rate. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques, maintaining a healthy diet, and staying hydrated can also help in managing your heart rate.
