I'm experiencing this strange chest pain or maybe a strain when I turn my neck or just walk around. I'm not really sure if it's something to do with nerves or maybe just gas. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI'm experiencing breathlessness when I exert myself and my heart rate seems really high. The recent echo shows mild TR, mild PAHRVSP at 45 mmHg, and a mild MR jet area of 2.5 sqcm, with tachycardia at 121 bpm. My hemoglobin and thyroid levels are normal, but I'm a bit concerned about the mild PAH. Should I be worried about this and check in with a doctor?
Yes, mild pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) should be followed up by a doctor, especially since you are experiencing breathlessness on exertion and have a high heart rate. Treatment for PAH may include medications such as sildenafil (Revatio) or tadalafil (Adcirca) to help lower the blood pressure in the lungs. It is important to monitor and manage PAH to prevent further complications.

My father had bypass surgery 20 years ago and now the doctor is recommending a CAG because they said his heart is at 30% working. He's 60 now is it safe for him to go through this procedure at his age?

I'm wondering if it's necessary to get an echo test for my mom. She's 47 and has slightly high cholesterol, but her ECG is normal. Should we be concerned about any potential heart issues, or is it okay to skip the echo test for now?
If your mother has high cholesterol and there are concerns about her heart health, it may be beneficial to get an echocardiogram (echo) done even if the ECG is normal. An echocardiogram is a test that uses sound waves to create detailed images of the heart and can provide valuable information about the structure and function of the heart. It can help assess for any potential heart conditions that may not be detected by an ECG alone. In this case, it would be advisable to consult with a cardiologist who can recommend the appropriate course of action based on your mother's individual health profile.
