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?

I'm wondering if it's normal for my heart rate to go up to 150-160 when I'm doing cardio at the gym or climbing stairs, and then drop to around 110 when I go for a walk. I've had several ECGs done and just had an echo two days ago, and everything seems fine. My resting heart rate usually falls between 55 and 100. Should I be concerned about these numbers?

It is normal for your heart rate to increase during physical activities like gym cardio, climbing stairs, and walking. Your heart rate of 150-160 during intense exercise and 110 during walking is within a normal range for physical exertion. Since your ECG and echo results are normal, there is likely no underlying heart condition causing these heart rate variations. It is important to stay hydrated and listen to your body during exercise. If you experience any chest pain, dizziness, or fainting, please stop the activity and seek medical attention.

I'm a bit worried about some stuff I've been experiencing. Sometimes when I talk loudly, I feel this pain in my chest. I usually masturbate maybe twice or thrice a month, often while watching porn or imagining naked women, and that always made my heart race. Recently, I've tried to stop watching but still experience the pain whenever I shout. Could there be a link between these things, or should I be concerned about the pain when speaking loudly?

I'm 26 and a few months back, I had a fever that went away in a week. Then, out of nowhere, my heart rate shot up to 144 bpm, and I felt like there was an air bubble in my chest. I got an ECG done, which showed minor ST and T wave abnormalities, and I'm attaching it here. Now and then, I still get these episodes. While my 2D echo and blood pressure are normal, I've been dealing with random chest pains that last just a secondsometimes on the right and then on the left. My stomach feels upset too, and I get really gassy during these times. I'm confused about what might be causing these ECG changes. Curiously, I never feel chest pain when jogging or exercising, only when I'm at rest. Different doctors have told me different things; some say it's normal, and others think it might be gas. What's really going on here? Should I be worried about these ECG changes?

The symptoms you are experiencing, along with the ECG changes showing minor ST and T wave abnormality, could be indicative of a condition called Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVCs). PVCs are extra heartbeats that begin in one of your heart's two lower pumping chambers (ventricles). They may feel like a fluttering or a flip-flop in your chest. The sensation can be triggered by certain activities, emotions, or medications. To help manage your symptoms and reduce the occurrence of PVCs, you can try taking over-the-counter medication such as **Propranolol (Inderal)** at a dosage of 10-30 mg three to four times a day. This medication can help regulate your heart rate and reduce the frequency of PVCs. Additionally, you can try to reduce stress and anxiety through relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. They may recommend additional tests such as a Holter monitor or an event monitor to capture your heart's activity over an extended period. This will help determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and guide appropriate treatment. In the meantime, try to avoid triggers such as caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco, which can exacerbate PVCs. Stay hydrated, maintain a healthy diet, and get regular exercise to support your heart health. If you experience severe chest pain, dizziness, or fainting spells, seek immediate medical attention.
