I'm experiencing shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my chest, and I've also noticed some pain in my calf muscles when I climb stairs. My heart starts beating really fast too. I've already had an echo stress test and a chest X-ray, and everything came back normal. What could be causing these symptoms? I'm really confused about what's going on.

I'm trying to understand what the results from my ECG mean. It shows an incomplete right bundle branch block, but my echocardiogram came back normal. Do I need to be worried about anything, or is there something specific I should be doing next?
