I'm experiencing this left hand cramp and chest pain that comes and goes, and it's been joined by this left arm pain for about eight days now. I went for an ECG yesterday, and they said everything looked normal, though my heart rate was up a bitapparently due to stress. I actually had a similar hand cramp about a month ago. Should I be concerned or look into other causes for these symptoms?

Based on your symptoms of left hand cramp, chest pain, and left arm pain, along with a normal ECG result and slightly elevated heart rate possibly due to stress, it is important to consider muscle relaxants and pain relievers. You can take acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief and muscle relaxation. Additionally, you can use a muscle relaxant like cyclobenzaprine 5mg to help with the hand cramp. It is important to take these medications as directed on the packaging or as advised by a healthcare professional

View allI'm a 30-year-old with health anxiety and I've been tracking my heart rate. When I'm resting, it jumps between 50 and 65, but during sleep, it drops down to 48. However, whenever I stand up, my heart rate shoots up to over 100, sometimes even reaching 120. Is this normal? Should I be concerned about how much it fluctuates?
When standing, a heart rate above 100-120 beats per minute can be considered normal, especially if you are experiencing anxiety. However, it would be best to monitor your heart rate regularly and consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your health anxiety. For anxiety, you can try relaxation techniques and therapy. In case of severe anxiety, medications like Sertraline (50mg daily) or Escitalopram (10mg daily) can be prescribed by a doctor.

I've just turned 17, and I'm trying to understand my lvef count, which is at 75. Is this something normal for someone my age? Any insights you could share would be really helpful because I'm a bit concerned.
An ejection fraction (EF) of 75% is considered normal and indicates good heart function. There is no need to worry about this result. Just continue to maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet.

I'm really concerned about my recent ECG results, which showed an incomplete right bundle branch block (RBbb). On top of that, I've been dealing with high blood pressure. I'm wondering how serious this might be and what steps I should take next. Can you help me understand this better?
