I'm really concerned about my heart, as I've had a PTCA stent placed to my right coronary artery and right internal artery. But lately, I've been experiencing some wet palpitations now and again. I have Type 2 diabetes and hypertension and I'm 56 years old. Should I be worried about these palpitations, or is this somewhat normal for someone in my situation? What should I do about it?

View allI'm really worried right now because my mom just got her test results back and it shows she has a negative troponin test. I'm not sure what this means for her health. Can you please explain what steps we should take next or what we need to watch out for? Would really appreciate some advice on this.
Having a negative Trop T test indicates that there are no signs of a heart attack. It is a good sign. However, further evaluation may be needed to determine the cause of her symptoms. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I've been feeling this chest pain every day, and it's making me really uncomfortable. My ECG, echo, and TMT all came back normal, so Im a bit puzzled and worried. Why isn't anything showing up in the tests even though I'm still dealing with these symptoms? What could be going on with my chest?
Given that your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, and you continue to experience daily chest pain and discomfort, it's likely that your symptoms might not be heart-related. Other possible causes could include musculoskeletal issues like costochondritis or muscle strain, gastrointestinal problems such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or anxiety-related symptoms. It would be beneficial to consult with a gastroenterologist to rule out any digestive issues and consider a musculoskeletal evaluation for potential muscular causes. Additionally, managing any underlying anxiety through therapy or relaxation techniques may help alleviate your symptoms. Please discuss these possibilities with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate treatment plan.

I'm noticing that my heart rate sits between 85 to 105 when I'm just resting. I had an ECG done and my doctor mentioned I have sinus tachycardia, but thankfully no arrhythmia. I'm kind of worried, thoughdoes this mean I'm at risk for a heart attack or maybe a brain stroke? I'm only 19, so I'm not sure what to think.
In your case, since you are 19 years old and your ECG shows sinus tachycardia without arrhythmia, the chances of heart attack or stroke are very low at your age. To help manage your sinus tachycardia, you can try relaxation techniques, avoid stimulants like caffeine, and ensure you are well-hydrated. If your symptoms persist or worsen, you may consider beta-blocker medications like Metoprolol at a low dose under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
