I'm really confused and a bit anxious about this chest tightness that happens whenever I lie down flat or stretch my left hand. It's been going on for about three months. I went to an orthopedic doctor who said it's probably due to poor posture and muscle spasm. Then I saw a cardiologist, had all the tests like ECG, echocardiogram, TMT, and even checked my cholesterol and BP. Everything was normal except for my cholesterol which was a bit high at 196, and LDL at 121.8. The cardiologist said I don't have heart issues and just need to change my lifestyle and lose some weight. But I wanted a second opinion, so I visited another cardiologist and even without any new tests, he said the same thing that everything's normal. Still, I feel this tightness at night and sometimes it makes me sweat and I get really scared thinking it might be a heart attack. When I went back to the cardiologist, he reassured me again. So, should I keep doing ECGs every time I feel this tightness or maybe see a pulmonologist? Why does this keep happening if everything's supposed to be normal?

View allI'm really worried about my mom's health. Her doctor said she has a 90% blockage in one of her arteries, and they're suggesting she undergoes angioplasty. Is this really the only way to treat it, or are there other options we should consider? I'm just trying to make sure we're making the best choice for her.
You go for other investigation.

I'm really worried about my brother. He had a heart attack in March 2017, and it turned out he had a 100% blockage in a left artery. He's been taking meds like planep 25mg, sexeloxon, and roustor gold10 to help with this. I'm just wondering, can medication actually remove the blockage, or is that not possible? And how do we even check if the blockage has improved or if it's still completely blocked?
To check if the blockage has been reduced or is still at 100%, he can undergo a diagnostic test called a coronary angiography. This procedure will provide detailed images of the arteries and can show if there has been any improvement in the blockage. It is important to follow up with his cardiologist for further evaluation and management."

So, I'm 14 and have been masturbating for about a year now. It feels really good when I do it, but afterwards, I notice that my heartbeat feels louder and sometimes it races. Can you tell me if that's normal or if I should be concerned?
It's important to know that changes in heart rate can be influenced by various factors, including anxiety, stress, and physical activity. However, if you're concerned about these symptoms, I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness to help manage your symptoms.
