I'm dealing with depression and recently had some heart tests done - my TMT came back negative, and both my ECG and echo were normal. However, my doctor prescribed me macsart 40 for blood pressure. I'm confused and a bit worried. Why would they prescribe BP medicine if my tests are normal? Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm trying to understand my recent ECG results from a health check-up. The impression mentioned something called 803 sinus arrhythmia. Can someone explain what this means? Is it something I should be worried about? And if it is a problem, what steps should I take to address it?

I've been experiencing some concerning symptoms that have me a bit worried. I'm 28 and have been dealing with this persistent pain in the middle of my chest and upper back since last night. It's so uncomfortable that I can't even breathe properly without feeling the pain. Should I be concerned about this? Is it something serious?

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.
