I'm having this issue where my heart seems to race and my hands go numb. It gets really intense, like my heartbeat skyrockets, especially at night. Last night it happened again, and it's not the first time it also occurred about 15 days ago. I got an ECG done, and while my heart rate was really fast, my blood pressure was normal. What's going on here? Why is this happening to me?

View allI'm a bit concerned about this flickering feeling I've been having in my right chest for the past 45 days. Sometimes it also aches a little, and it happens regularly, like every 15 to 20 minutes, lasting for about 45 seconds. It's near the rib area, and I've noticed my heart's beating faster too. My blood pressure is 13086. Is this something serious? I don't have any other issues, no cough or fever, and I can breathe fine, but this has got me worried. What could it be?

I'm really worried about Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. If someone finds out they have it early on, can it be treated even if it can't be completely cured? What kind of problems might the person face, and how does it affect their chances of living a full life?
If Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy is detected at an early stage, it can be managed effectively to improve symptoms and prevent complications. Medications such as beta blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) or calcium channel blockers (e.g. Verapamil) may be prescribed to help relax the heart muscle and improve blood flow. In some cases, antiarrhythmic medications like Amiodarone may be used to control abnormal heart rhythms. In addition to medications, lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a heart-healthy diet, and avoiding excessive alcohol intake are important in managing Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. In more severe cases, procedures like septal myectomy or alcohol septal ablation may be recommended to relieve symptoms and improve heart function. Patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy may face issues such as shortness of breath, chest pain, fatigue, dizziness, and an increased risk of abnormal heart rhythms or sudden cardiac arrest. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential to monitor the condition and adjust treatment as needed. With proper management and adherence to treatment, the survival chances for patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy can be good. However, it is important for patients to stay compliant with their medications, follow a healthy lifestyle, and attend regular medical appointments to optimize their long-term outcomes.

I'm really confused. My ECG, TMT, and 2D Echo all came back negative, but I'm still experiencing chest pain and pain in my left upper arm. What should I do next?
This could be due to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). You can try taking over-the-counter medication like Imodium (Loperamide) 2mg after meals to help reduce the frequency of bowel movements. Additionally, make sure to drink plenty of water and eat a high-fiber diet to regulate your bowel movements.
