I'm looking for some advice. My husband, who's 29 and weighs around 92 kg, has been feeling a pinching sensation in his chest and some pain in his left arm for about 45 days now. He's a non-smoker, drinks occasionally, and his parents both had heart attacks before. Our cardio doctor suggested a CT coronary angio test, which is non-invasive. About six months ago, he had episodes of increased heartbeats, anxiety, and sweating, and we did a bunch of tests like the 2D Echo Doppler, TMT, and trop T, which all came back normal in September 2018. I'm wondering if this is a good step to take to get more clarity on what's happening with him. Are there any side effects from this test we should be aware of, and is there anything specific we should do to prepare before he takes the test?

I've been dealing with a heavy feeling in my chest and some chest pain for the past four months. The pain often starts on the center left side but sometimes shifts to the center right. Ive tried Gelusil a few times, but it hasnt really helped. I do pranayam and take a short walk every day. What could be causing this? What do you think I should do, and are there any specific tests you recommend?

I'm a bit concerned because my resting heart rate is around 80 while I'm just sitting at my desk doing nothing. Is this something I should be worried about?

A resting heart rate of around 80 beats per minute is generally considered within the normal range for adults. However, if you are experiencing symptoms such as dizziness, shortness of breath, chest pain, or fainting spells along with the elevated heart rate, it may be worth consulting with a healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can try managing stress, getting regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy diet.

I've been having heart pain for the last 4 days and it's also spreading to my left hand and back. I recently got my ECG done and it showed a negative T wave. I'm getting worried about what this could mean. What should I do next?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart condition. Based on your description and the ECG report showing negative T waves, it is important to address this issue promptly. You may be experiencing angina or even a heart attack. It is crucial to seek immediate medical attention. You may be prescribed medications such as Aspirin (325mg) to help reduce the risk of blood clots and relieve chest pain. Additionally, medications like Nitroglycerin may be prescribed to help widen blood vessels and improve blood flow to the heart. Beta-blockers such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) may also be prescribed to help lower blood pressure and reduce strain on the heart. Please seek urgent medical attention to receive a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
