I'm experiencing a really weird feeling in my chest that sometimes eases up when I take a deep breath. My heart rate speeds up occasionally too. I did a spirometry test, which showed normal results with my fev1fvc at 98.8, and my oximeter reading is at 98. I quit smoking about 2 months ago, but I still have some burping issues from gastric problems. It's got me worried, and I'm not sure what's going on. Could you help me figure out what might be happening?

View allI'm 25 and recently had a pre-employment medical check-up where they did an ECG. The person doing the test said it was abnormal, but after doing it again, they mentioned it's not a big deal. I've never had any health issues or needed to see a doctor before, so I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is this something I should be worried about?
Having an abnormal ECG at a young age like 25 can be concerning, but it doesn't always indicate a serious problem. It's important to follow up with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking low-dose aspirin (75-100mg) daily to help reduce the risk of any potential cardiovascular issues.

I'm a bit worried about my recent TMT report. It came back as mildly positive for provocable ischemia. I'm currently taking atenolol 50mg and atorvastatin 10mg. What does this mean for my heart health, and should I be concerned or is there more I need to do?
A TMT report indicating mildly positive provokable ischemia suggests potential reduced blood flow to the heart during exertion, indicating coronary artery disease. Given that you are taking Atenolol 50 mg and Atorvastatin 10 mg, it is crucial to review these findings with your cardiologist. They may recommend additional diagnostic tests such as a coronary angiogram or stress echocardiogram to further evaluate your condition. In the meantime, continue taking your medications as prescribed, and adhere to lifestyle modifications like a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise within advised limits, and stress management. If you experience any worsening symptoms, seek immediate medical attention.

I'm really worried about my health because I've been told I have a blockage in 2 of my arteries. The doctor mentioned that my condition isn't good enough for a bypass or CABG surgery. They've suggested I try medication for the first 15 days to see if it helps clear the blockage. How effective is this approach, and what are the chances that the blockage might actually clear up just with medicine?
The doctor may prescribe a combination of medications to help manage the blockage in the arteries. This may include: 1. Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) - 20mg once daily to help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages. 2. Aspirin - 75mg once daily to help prevent blood clots and improve blood flow through the arteries. 3. Clopidogrel (brand name Plavix) - 75mg once daily to further prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of complications. 4. Ramipril (brand name Altace) - 2.5mg once daily to help lower blood pressure and reduce strain on the heart. It is important to take these medications as prescribed and follow up with the doctor for further evaluation and management.
