I'm really concerned about some pain I've been experiencing. It started about four months ago with chest pain and pain in my left arm. I went to a doctor who said it might be gastric issues, but I was worried so I saw a cardiologist. They did a chest X-ray, a TMT, and an echo 2D, and everything came back negative. My relative, who's a doctor, suggested it might be muscle pain or cervical spondylosis, but I still have this persistent pain in my left arm along with a burning sensation. I've read about anxiety causing these kinds of symptoms, but the pain is also in my neck, jaw, left arm, shoulder, and chest. I'm really hoping for some clarification on what might be going on. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do next?

View allCan a treadmill test, 2D echo, or ECG detect an 80% heart blockage, or is an angiogram the only way to find this out? I'm really curious because I want to understand what these tests can actually show.
0% heart blockage cannot be directly traced by a treadmill test, 2D echo, or ECG. These tests can provide important information about the heart's function and structure, but they may not definitively show the extent of blockages in the coronary arteries. The gold standard for diagnosing blockages in the arteries is a coronary angiogram (angio). It is an invasive procedure where a dye is injected into the arteries to visualize any blockages. If you suspect significant blockages in your coronary arteries, it is best to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm trying to understand something that's been bothering me. What's the difference between sinus tachycardia and arrhythmia? And does having sinus tachycardia mean I have an arrhythmia? I'm really anxious about this and would appreciate some clarity.
Sinus tachycardia is a type of arrhythmia, but not all arrhythmias are sinus tachycardia. Sinus tachycardia is a normal increase in heart rate in response to factors such as exercise, stress, or illness. It originates from the sinus node in the heart. On the other hand, arrhythmia is a broader term that encompasses any abnormality in the heart's rhythm. It includes conditions like atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia, and others. If you have sinus tachycardia, it means your heart is beating faster than normal, but it is still following a regular pattern.
