I'm feeling really concerned about some symptoms I've been having lately. There's this persistent pain on the left side of my chest and in my left arm, and it's been going on for about four months now. I did a TMT test three months ago and it came back negative, but I'm still worried. I got my ECG and Echo done a few days ago and was told it's anxiety. Could you take a look at the results I've attached and let me know what you think?

"Based on your symptoms and previous tests, it seems like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or nerve-related pain rather than a cardiac issue. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the chest and arm pain. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief cream like diclofenac gel to the affected areas. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging. If the pain persists, you should follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management."

View allI've noticed my blood pressure is usually around 10462 during the day, but when I'm resting or sleeping, it drops into the 9050s range. I've been keeping an eye on it for about a month and the pattern seems pretty consistent. I had an echocardiogram earlier this year, and it showed I have a diastolic relaxation abnormality. I'm wondering if this could be causing my low blood pressure? Could it lead to more heart-related complications, or is it normal for blood pressure to drop like this at night? I've been feeling really fatigued and low on energy no matter how much I sleep, and it's a bit worrying. What do you think?
Low blood pressure during rest or sleep can be influenced by various factors, including underlying conditions such as diastolic dysfunction. In your case, the diastolic relaxation abnormality noted in your echocardiography may contribute to the lower blood pressure readings, especially during periods of rest. This can potentially lead to symptoms of fatigue and lack of energy. To address this issue, it is important to manage the underlying diastolic dysfunction. In addition, ensuring an adequate intake of fluids and electrolytes can help stabilize blood pressure. If symptoms persist, medications such as Midodrine or Fludrocortisone may be prescribed to raise blood pressure levels, especially during periods of rest or sleep. However, it is crucial to consult with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I was recently told I have mitral valve regurgitation with trivial mitral regurgitation, and I'm really worried about how long it might take for this to get worse, like to a moderate or severe level. Do most people with this condition experience a worsening over time, and how common is it for it to progress? I'm finding it hard to concentrate on anything else because I'm so anxious about it. Can you help clarify this for me?

I'm worried because my homocysteine levels are really high, like around 58.9, but my blood pressure is normal and I don't have diabetes. What steps should I take or things should I consider at this point?
High homocysteine levels can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. To lower your homocysteine levels, you can take a combination of folic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12. I recommend taking a tablet of Fol-5 Plus once daily, which contains the appropriate combination of these vitamins to help lower homocysteine levels. Additionally, it is important to maintain a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Regular exercise can also help in reducing homocysteine levels.
