I'm feeling really worried because I've been dealing with fatigue for about 20 days now, and it just doesn't seem to go away. I've also had some headaches on and off. Could these be signs of a heart attack?

Fatigue and headache are not specific symptoms of a heart attack. However, it is important to pay attention to any unusual symptoms you may be experiencing. Fatigue and headache can be caused by various factors such as stress, lack of sleep, dehydration, or underlying medical conditions. It is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

I'm a bit confused and worried after seeing my recent health checkup report. It mentions Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, but everything else like chamber dimension, RWMA, and LV systolic function looks normal. The report also notes trivial MR and TR, with no PAH, clot, or vegetation, and my EF is 70. Can you help me understand what Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction really means and if there's anything I should do about it?

grade 1 diastolic dysfunction could be due to hypertension , electrolyte imbalance and due to ischaemic heart disease.Salt restricted diet and DASH diet is advised.Also regular aerobic exercises is advised..Alcohol and cessation of smoking is advised

I had open heart surgery about 11 years ago because there was a hole in my heart. Is it safe for me to start going to the gym and lifting heavy weights now? Would love your advice.

I've been noticing that my heart is beating really fast and sometimes skips a beat, and it started about three weeks ago. I just turned 18 and have been masturbating a lot lately; I'm wondering if that's connected. I had an ECG done, and the doctor said my heart is fine, but it doesnt feel normal to me. My heart's never done this before. What steps can I take to get my heart rate back to normal?
