Couldn't sleep well last night and only got a little bit of rest today. I didn't have any chest pain earlier, but now, during nighttime, I suddenly felt a shooting pain on the right side of my chest. It only lasts a few seconds, kinda like a sudden leg ache or headache. I also noticed an extra heartbeat. Could this be related to my heart? Why do we get chest pain when we're sleep-deprived?
Chest pain, especially on the right side, along with an extra heartbeat can be concerning symptoms. It is important to rule out any heart-related issues. However, in the context of being sleep-deprived, chest pain can also be caused by muscle strain or tension. To help with the chest pain and irregular heartbeat, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen. Additionally, consider taking a muscle relaxant like methocarbamol to help with any muscle tension that may be contributing to the pain. Make sure to get adequate rest and improve your sleep hygiene to prevent further episodes.

I'm 32 and dealing with anxiety and hypertension. I've been diagnosed with mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy after a 2D echo. My doctor mentioned taking a TMT and prescribed me TelmaCT 4012.5, Inderal 10, and Rosuvastatin 20. Do you think I should go ahead with the TMT? I'm feeling a bit worried about all this.
Since you are already diagnosed with mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy, it is important to follow your doctor's advice and go for the TMT (Treadmill Stress Test) as suggested. This test will help assess your heart's response to physical stress and evaluate any possible blockages in the arteries.
