I'm really concerned about my 6-month-old daughter who has a 4 mm perimembranous VSD. Is there a chance that this VSD will close on its own, or should I be worried about any complications?

View allI'm a bit worried about this chest pain I've been having for the past 9.5 months. I've seen a bunch of cardiologists and done a ton of tests like ECG, 2D Echo, TMT, lipid profile, and thyroid, but everything's coming back normal. My daily routine includes brisk walking for about 50 minutes and running for 15 minutes, and I don't feel any pain during these activities. The pain occasionally hits on either the left or right side and is pretty mild. Can you help me figure out what might be causing this chest pain?
Chronic chest pain lasting several months with normal cardiac tests such as ECG, 2D Echo, and TMT, along with normal lipid profile and thyroid tests, suggests that the pain might not be heart-related. Since you can perform activities like brisk walking and running without pain, its less likely to be ischemic heart disease. Possible causes of your chest pain could include musculoskeletal issues (like costochondritis or muscle strain), gastrointestinal problems (such as GERD or gastritis), or anxiety-related symptoms. Given the persistence of your symptoms, it might be beneficial to consult with a gastroenterologist or consider a musculoskeletal evaluation. Additionally, managing stress and anxiety with practices like mindfulness or therapy can also help. Please follow up with your healthcare provider to explore these potential causes further.

I've recently had a TMT test done last month, and while I was on the treadmill, I started feeling really breathless and dizzy. It was kind of scary, but the doctor said the results were normal. I've got the TMT result attached. Is it common to feel like that even if the results come out okay, or should I be worried about something else?

I've recently had a CT angiogram done and I'm a bit worried. Are there any side effects I should be aware of related to the heart? Could you provide some guidance on what to expect afterward? I'm open to any advice you might have.
CT angiograms are generally safe procedures with minimal side effects. However, some potential side effects may include allergic reactions to the contrast dye used, kidney problems in patients with pre-existing kidney issues, and radiation exposure. It is important to stay hydrated after the procedure to help flush the contrast dye out of your system. If you experience any unusual symptoms such as chest pain, difficulty breathing, or severe allergic reactions, please seek medical attention immediately.
