I'm dealing with some slight chest pain and noticed it happens when I'm not breathing fully, like my breath feels kind of incomplete. It's been going on for the past month and sometimes can last the whole day. I'm worried and not sure what's going on. Could you give me some advice on this?

View allI've been dealing with chest pain for the past three months that comes and goes, and it often spreads to my left shoulder, arm, and even my jaw. Sometimes I get dizzy too. I had COVID before, and now I'm also experiencing some breathing issues since last week. I saw a cardiologist, and the ECG, trop test, and chest X-ray all showed nothing unusual. I had an echo and a TMT done today. Can you help me understand what's going on? What could be causing my symptoms if all these tests are normal?
Based on your symptoms and the tests you have undergone, it seems like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina or coronary artery disease. Since your ECG, troponin test, chest X-ray, echo, and TMT are normal, it is important to continue monitoring your symptoms and follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can take medications like Aspirin 75mg once daily to help reduce the risk of heart attack, and medications like Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to manage cholesterol levels. Additionally, Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets can be taken as needed for chest pain relief. It is also important to make lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, quitting smoking (if applicable), and managing stress to improve your overall heart health. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I just got my EKG report and it says "borderline ECG." I went to the cardiologist for surgery clearance for bariatric surgery. Should I be worried about this result? Could this affect my surgery? What does "borderline ECG" mean exactly?
Borderline ECG means that the results of your electrocardiogram are not definitively normal or abnormal. It could indicate a variety of issues or it could simply be a variation of normal for you. It is important to discuss these results further with your cardiologist to determine if any additional testing or monitoring is needed.

I'm really worried about my mom having to go through an angiogram and possibly getting a stent. She's 60 years old and on the heavier side. Do you think she'll be able to handle the pain from the procedure? Also, are there any serious risks or complications we should be aware of? Any advice would be really helpful.
At 60 years old, angiograms and stent procedures are routinely performed on patients in this age group, including those who are overweight. The procedure is generally considered safe when performed by experienced medical professionals, with serious complications being relatively rare (occurring in less than 1% of cases). However, like any medical procedure, there are some risks - these include bleeding at the catheter site, allergic reactions to the dye used, kidney problems, and in very rare cases, more serious complications. Your mother's doctors will carefully evaluate her overall health, including factors like her heart function, kidney function, and any other medical conditions, to ensure she can safely undergo the procedure. They'll also use appropriate pain management techniques during and after the procedure to keep her comfortable. The most important thing is to discuss any specific concerns with her healthcare team, as they know her complete medical history and can give personalized advice about her particular case.
