I'm feeling this weird heaviness in my chest, and I don't really have any other symptoms, but my heart's racing and I can actually hear it beating really fast. Could you help me figure out what's going on? I'm just really nervous about it.

I'm trying to make sense of some health concerns and could use a bit of guidance. I recently had an abnormal ECG that showed RBBB with sinus tachycardia, and my CT angiogram revealed 0 calcium deposits. But I'm still feeling some discomfort in my chest and experiencing breathlessness. Could I still have some kind of heart problem even with these results?

1) Despite the absence of calcium deposits on the CT angiogram, it is still possible to have a cardiovascular issue. Given your symptoms and abnormal ECG findings, further evaluation is necessary. I recommend starting treatment with a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help with the sinus tachycardia and chest discomfort. 2) The chest discomfort and breathlessness you are experiencing may be related to your cardiac condition. In addition to the beta-blocker, you can also take Aspirin (81mg) daily to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. However, it is important to follow up with a cardiologist for a comprehensive assessment and management plan.

I'm a bit concerned about my husband's heart rate. His watch is recording a high pulse rate, sometimes hitting numbers as high as 160, 120, or 150, a few times a day. He doesn't have any symptoms, and his blood pressure is normal. We've done TMT, ECG, and echo tests, and they all came back normal. What could be causing these spikes?

It's good that all the cardiac tests have come back normal. A high pulse rate without any other symptoms can sometimes be due to factors such as stress, anxiety, dehydration, or even certain medications. However, since your husband is not experiencing any symptoms, it may be worth monitoring his pulse rate over a period of time to see if there are any patterns or triggers. In some cases, a high pulse rate can be a sign of an underlying condition such as an overactive thyroid gland or an arrhythmia. If the high pulse rate continues or if there are any other concerning symptoms, further evaluation by a healthcare provider may be necessary. In the meantime, it may be helpful to ensure that your husband stays hydrated, gets adequate rest, and manages stress levels.

I'm having some trouble with breathlessness and occasional chest pain. I got an ECG, and it came back normal, but a 2D echo showed mild concentric LVH with reduced diastolic compliance, grade 1. Everything else seemed fine. My hemoglobin is at 6.7, blood pressure at 16090, and pulse at 105. Cholesterol levels are total 149, triglycerides 94, HDL 55, and LDL 100. I also have some gastric issues, and the breathlessness feels better after I burp. Do you think this is something I should be worried about, or is it okay?

Given your symptoms of breathlessness and chest pain, the mild concentric LVH with reduced diastolic compliance noted in your 2D echo, high blood pressure of 16090, and significantly low hemoglobin level of 6.7, there are multiple areas needing attention. While your ECG and cholesterol levels are normal, the combination of LVH, hypertension, and anemia requires medical management. Addressing your anemia is crucial, as it can contribute to your breathlessness and fatigue. Managing your blood pressure through medication adjustments and lifestyle changes is also important. Since your breathlessness is relieved by burping, addressing any gastrointestinal issues such as acid reflux is necessary. Follow up with your cardiologist for ongoing monitoring and management of the LVH and reduced diastolic compliance.
