I'm experiencing some worrying symptoms like left side chest pain and vomiting. I'm not feeling hungry and sometimes my heart starts beating really fast all of a sudden. It's even affecting my sleep. I've already had an echo and TMT done, and they didn't show anything wrong, but I'm still concerned. Could this be something serious? What should I do next?

View allI'm a bit concerned because my ECG showed some middling left axis deviation and my cholesterol levels aren't great either. On top of that, I've been having this back pain that seems to radiate to my hand. Could these issues be related somehow? Should I be worried about any underlying health problems connecting these symptoms? Any advice on what steps I should take next?
Based on your description of middling left axis deviation on ECG, high cholesterol levels, and radiating back pain to your hand, it is important to address these issues. For middling left axis deviation on ECG, it is recommended to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. For high cholesterol levels, you can start taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dose of 10-20 mg once daily to help lower your cholesterol levels. For your back pain radiating to your hand, you can take Ibuprofen (brand name Advil) at a dose of 400 mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, you may benefit from physical therapy to address the underlying cause of your back pain. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm 23 and don't have any bad habits like alcohol or smoking, but because of my IT job, I'm sitting in front of a laptop a lot. I do eat fast food occasionally. Recently, I've felt a needle-like pain in my right upper chest that only lasts a second, and it has me worried about my heart health. I stress over various things, and I noticed my pulse is usually between 92-100 bpm. This morning it was 97 bpm. Im just wondering if my lack of physical activity might be affecting my heart. Plus, I have some gastric issues too. What do you think might be going on?
It's important to address your concerns. The needle-like pain sensation in your right upper chest, occurring briefly, could be related to musculoskeletal issues or even gastric problems. Given your sedentary lifestyle and stress levels, it's advisable to incorporate some physical activity into your routine. To help with your gastric issues, you can try taking Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for a few weeks. Additionally, for your heart health and to manage stress, you can consider taking Propranolol 20mg twice daily. However, it's crucial to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm noticing some weird fluctuations in my heart rate. Out of nowhere, it sometimes shoots up to 90-110. Heres what Ive tracked: when Im sleeping, it varies between 65-80, and when Im resting, it's around 70-90. But it gets to 90-110 when Im stressed. Climbing up to my apartment on the 3rd floor gets it to 110-120, a 5-minute walk pushes it to 100, and a 30-minute walk averages at 140 according to my smartwatch. After an hour walk, my watch shows an average of 165. And when I skip for just 5 minutes, my heart rate jumps to 140. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Ive stopped exercising because it seems like my heart rate goes up too much. I'm 32, by the way.
Based on the information you provided, your heart rate seems to be fluctuating quite a bit. It is normal for your heart rate to increase during physical activity, stress, or even when climbing stairs. However, consistently high heart rates during rest or sleep could indicate an underlying issue. I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to incorporate moderate-intensity exercises like brisk walking or swimming into your routine and monitor your heart rate closely. If you experience any chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, please seek immediate medical attention
