I'm getting kind of worried because I've been feeling pretty uncomfortable after eating for a few days now. There's this mild chest pain and a tight feeling around my chest area. What could be causing this? Should I be concerned or is it something normal that might go away on its own?

Today I was feeling really breathless, so I decided to see a cardiologist. They had me do an ECG, and after looking it over, the doctor recommended getting another one in 23 days. Should I be worried about what my ECG showed? I'm also on antidepressants, and I've heard they can sometimes cause long QT syndrome. Could that be what's going on with my QTc interval? I've attached my ECG, and I'm just hoping you can let me know if there's anything abnormal.

The QTc interval on your ECG appears to be prolonged, which can be a concern as it may lead to arrhythmias. Since you are on antidepressant medication, it is important to monitor this closely as some antidepressants can indeed prolong the QT interval. I recommend discussing this with your cardiologist and considering a change in medication if necessary. In the meantime, you may benefit from taking a medication like Escitalopram at a lower dose to reduce the risk of QT prolongation.

I'm a bit worried after seeing the results of my 2D ECHO. It mentions "diastolic dysfunction present EA," and I'm not quite sure what that means. Could you explain it to me?

Diastolic dysfunction means that the heart is not able to relax and fill properly during the resting phase of the cardiac cycle. This can lead to problems with the heart's ability to pump blood efficiently. In this case, you may be prescribed medications like ACE inhibitors (e.g. Enalapril) or beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) to help improve heart function. The dosage will depend on your specific condition and needs.
