I'm experiencing pain when I tilt my head towards my left shoulder. I also have thyroid issues and asthma. When I move my neck to the left, there's this pain that travels from the back of my neck to my chest. Could this be something connected to my heart?

it may not necessarily be related to your heart. It could be due to muscle strain or tension in your neck and chest area. However, given your history of thyroid issues and asthma, it is important to rule out any other potential causes. To help alleviate the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the painful area and practicing gentle neck stretches may also provide some relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been experiencing this weird irregular and thumping heartbeat but there's no chest pain. It's just this uncomfortable feeling in my chest, especially when I drink water or eat. It makes it hard to take a deep breath. I went to the doctor and they suggested an ECG, which came out normal. It went away for a couple of days but now it's back again. What could be causing this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of palpitations and difficulty breathing. These symptoms can be caused by various factors such as anxiety, dehydration, caffeine intake, or underlying heart conditions like arrhythmias. Since your ECG results were normal, it is important to rule out other possible causes. I recommend you to try to stay hydrated, avoid excessive caffeine intake, and manage stress levels. Additionally, you can take a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help regulate your heartbeat and reduce palpitations. If symptoms persist or worsen, further evaluation by a cardiologist may be necessary.

I'm really worried after my doctor asked me to get an Echocardiogram done following my recent ECG results. Can you explain why this might be necessary? Is there something wrong with my heart that I should be concerned about? I've attached my ECG report and would really appreciate if you could take a look and let me know what's going on. I'm feeling really stressed about this.

I'm 25 and went for a full heart check-up. My ECG and echo were both normal, but my first TMT test came back positive even though I didn't feel any pain or issues while exercising. I decided to take the TMT test again just to be sure, and this time it came back normal or negative. Why would the first TMT show positive? Do I need to look into this more or get further tests done?
The initial positive TMT result may be attributed to factors like dehydration, anxiety, or a false positive, especially since you didn't experience any symptoms during exercise and the repeat test came back normal; however, to confirm the absence of any underlying cardiac issues, consider discussing further evaluation with your cardiologist, such as a stress echocardiogram or a cardiac MRI, to rule out any potential concerns.
