I'm having these weird experiences when I'm about to fall asleep, like when I'm in that transition phase. It's like I feel this single, really strong heartbeat that kind of moves my whole body. Its kind of freaking me out. Ive attached my ECG can you help me figure out whats going on with this?

it could be due to a premature ventricular contraction (PVC). This is when the heart's lower chambers (ventricles) contract earlier than normal, causing an extra, abnormal heartbeat. It may feel like a strong thump in your chest. Based on the ECG you provided, it confirms the presence of PVCs. To manage this condition, you can take a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help regulate your heart rhythm and reduce the occurrence of PVCs. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring.

View allI recently got my 2D Echo test results, and I'm trying to make sense of them. It mentioned things like mild thickening of the mitral valve, mild MR, mild concentric LVH, and that the chambers are normal with good LVRV function. There's also a mention of "No LV RWMA." I'm really wondering if these findings suggest a major issue with my heart or if it's more of a minor concern. I'm feeling a bit worried and would love some clarity on what this all means for my heart health.
MR treatment -diuretics,mital valve replacemet and repair .and blood thinners.like aspirin,brillinta,clopidogel and enoxaparin ,eliquis etc....

I'm really concerned about my symptoms. I've been experiencing some trouble with breathing, and my pulse rate is quite low at 56. On top of that, my limbs are going numb pretty often, especially when I wake up. It's starting to worry me a bit. What could be causing all of this, and what should I do about it?

I'm Rohit, and I'm from Delhi. Back in December, I had some chest pain and got an ECG done. The doctors thought it might be type 1 Brugada morphology. I've since done a bunch of tests like ECG, ECHO, TMT, CT Angiography, and a 24-hour holter test, all of which came back negative. The doctor said it's asymptomatic since I don't have ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, a family history of sudden cardiac death in a close relative under 45, or anything like that. Now, I'm planning to get married and just want to be sure about the Brugada syndrome diagnosis. Do you think it's a good idea for me to take a Flecainide or Ajmaline challenge test to confirm whether I have Brugada syndrome? Also, could you recommend any hospitals in India, especially near New Delhi, where I could get this test done? Would appreciate any info you have!
Yes, you can undergo a FlecainideAjmaline challenge test to confirm the presence of Brugada syndrome. This test is commonly used to unmask the Brugada ECG pattern in individuals suspected of having the syndrome. In India, you can consider getting this test done at reputed hospitals like AIIMS (All India Institute of Medical Sciences) in New Delhi, or at Max Super Speciality Hospital in Saket, New Delhi. It is important to undergo this test under the supervision of a cardiologist experienced in managing Brugada syndrome, as the test involves administration of a sodium channel blocker (Flecainide or Ajmaline) which can induce changes in the ECG pattern characteristic of Brugada syndrome. This test should only be performed in a hospital setting with facilities for managing any potential complications that may arise during the test. Before proceeding with the FlecainideAjmaline challenge test, it is advisable to discuss the potential risks and benefits of the test with your healthcare provider to make an informed decision.
