I'm noticing that my blood pressure readings are different in each arm. The left side shows 90160, while the right is 80125. Could you tell me which one is correct? Also, my lipid and sugar levels are normal, and I feel okay when I walk around, but I still feel anxious. What should I do?

It is recommended to consider the blood pressure reading from the right hand (80125) as it is lower and more accurate. To manage anxiety, you can take a medication such as lorazepam (Ativan) 0.5mg as needed. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been told I have left ventricle collapse. Is this common? Can you explain what it means and if it's something serious?
Left ventricular collapse is not a common condition. It can be a serious medical issue that may result from conditions such as severe heart failure, myocardial infarction, or cardiogenic shock. The collapse of the left ventricle can lead to decreased cardiac output and potentially life-threatening complications. Treatment typically involves medications such as ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, and diuretics to help improve heart function and reduce symptoms. In severe cases, surgical interventions or devices like an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator may be necessary. It is important to follow up regularly with a cardiologist for proper management and monitoring of this condition.

I'm experiencing shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my chest, and I've also noticed some pain in my calf muscles when I climb stairs. My heart starts beating really fast too. I've already had an echo stress test and a chest X-ray, and everything came back normal. What could be causing these symptoms? I'm really confused about what's going on.
