I'm feeling a bit worried about my chest. I had covid a couple of months back and recovered, but this past week, I've been experiencing some tightness there. I had an ECG done and it came out normal, but I'm still concerned. Could you please take a look at my X-ray and let me know if everything seems okay?

I'm trying to get my blood pressure under control quickly. My cholesterol and creatinine levels are normal according to recent tests. I'm 6 feet tall, weigh 105 kg, and work from home. My BP reading was 14080. Could you suggest a tablet that would help control it?

Cholesterol is normal as per Lipid profile and creatinine is normal after test. My height is 6 feet and weight is 105 kg, work from home. BP showing: 14080. Please suggest me a tablet to get control. Based on your information, with a blood pressure reading of 14080, you can consider taking Amlodipine 5mg. It is a commonly prescribed medication for high blood pressure.

I'm really struggling to understand my heart issues. For someone who's been dealing with heart problems for 34 years, it's tough to know what's happening. I have diastolic relaxation abnormality, and my TMT was mildly positive, but that was dismissed with a normal CT angiography. I often feel my heart skip a beat with a thud during exercise and even at rest. My exercise tolerance seems to be getting worse, and my heart rate jumps past 130 after just a few minutes of daily activity, though it calms to 60s bpm in the morning. I often feel dizzy, weak, and fatigued. The ECGs say I have LVH, but the echo says normal LVM. Can diastolic relaxation abnormality indicate heart failure? Is the ECG more reliable than the echo for identifying LVH? And should I be comfortable trusting the CT angio results? Any insights would really help clarify things for me.

1. Diastolic relaxation abnormality does not necessarily mean you have heart failure, but it does indicate that your heart's ability to relax and fill with blood is impaired. It is a condition that can progress and should be monitored and managed carefully by your healthcare provider. 2. The echocardiogram (echo) is generally considered more accurate for assessing left ventricular mass (LVM) and structure, so you can trust the echo results over the ECG for diagnosing LVH. 3. A normal CT angiography report is generally reliable and indicates that your coronary arteries do not have significant blockages. Given your symptoms of skipped heartbeats, exercise intolerance, dizziness, and fatigue, it's important to follow up with your cardiologist. They may need to reassess your condition and consider other diagnostic tests or treatment changes. Continuous monitoring and a thorough evaluation by your healthcare provider are essential to address your concerns and ensure proper management of your heart health.

I've been experiencing this sudden sharp pain in the center of my chest for a while now, actually since middle school, about 3 to 4 years ago. Initially, it took me by surprise, but I brushed it off. It happens like 2 to 3 times a month, and I've just kind of lived with it. The thing is, it happens randomlywhether I'm just walking or chilling watching TV. What really caught my attention was that a few days ago, the pain lasted much longer than usual. It's typically 15-20 seconds, but this time, it dragged on for a solid 2-3 minutes. That got me a bit worried. I havent told my parents yet because I feel okay now, but could it be something serious that I should be concerned about? Any ideas on what this chest pain might be would really help.

panrip 40mg for 3 days and chest xray for further review
