I'm dealing with some constant pain in my chest, neck, shoulders, ears, and upper back. I've already had an ECG, ECO, and TMT done, and everything came back normal. But the pain is still there and just won't go away. What should I do about it?

How do you stop a heart attack immediately?

Acting quickly can save lives. If given quickly after symptoms, clot-busting and artery-opening medications can stop a heart attack, and having a catheterization with a stent put in may open a closed blood vessel. The longer you wait for treatment, the more chances of survival go down and damage to the heart goes up.

I'm a 28-year-old guy dealing with costochondritis and whenever I visit the doctor, my heart rate skyrockets and my blood pressure goes up, but when I'm back home, everything seems to settle down to normal. I'm really anxious about this. Could you help me understand what's happening and any suggestions on what I could do?

Your symptoms suggest white coat hypertension and anxiety, common in people with costochondritis; to manage anxiety, consider relaxation techniques like deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or meditation, and for white coat hypertension, ask your doctor about ambulatory blood pressure monitoring or home blood pressure tracking to get accurate readings and alleviate anxiety-related spikes.

I'm really worried about the results from my ECG which said something about provocable myocardial ischemia, but I haven't had any cardiac symptoms of IHD. I'm only 48 years old and I'm not sure what this means for my heart health. Should I be concerned or do anything specific to address this?

It sounds like you have a positive exercise tolerance test (ITT) for provocable myocardial ischemia without any cardiac symptoms for ischemic heart disease (IHD) at the age of 48. In this case, you may benefit from starting a medication like Atenolol (50-100mg daily) to help reduce the workload on your heart and prevent further episodes of ischemia. Additionally, adding a medication like Aspirin (75-150mg daily) can help reduce the risk of blood clot formation in your coronary arteries. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
