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 a bit concerned about my blood pressure reading, which is 140103. Is it normal, or should I be worried? Can it be improved with lifestyle changes? Would love some advice.
A blood pressure reading of 140103 is considered high and warrants attention; while lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a balanced diet, stress reduction, and adequate sleep can help lower blood pressure

What should I make of my recent ECG results that mention a sinus rhythm and the RS transition zone in 5 leads displaced to the right, but everything else seems normal? A couple of months ago, the ECG said LVH and possible lateral infarct and called it abnormal, even though it also noted a normal sinus rhythm. Back then, my blood pressure was 150100 with a pulse of 95, while now it's down to 13080 and my pulse is 81. Does this suggest an improvement in my heart condition?

My mom, who's 50, has been taking Thyronorm 50 for her thyroid. Her doctor mentioned noticing some changes in her ECG twice during her follow-ups and suggested she should get a TMT and an Echo done. Her 2D Echo looks normal with an LVEF of 65%, but her TMT came back positive for inducible ischemia at a moderate workload level. She's mentioned having shortness of breath sometimes when she's climbing stairs, but other than that, she's fine and doesn't have any chest pain or a history of high blood pressure or diabetes. What would you suggest as the next steps for her?
A 2D Echo is advised as a diagnostic procedure for heart blocks and other pathology..
