I'm really worried about this heart murmur that was detected during my TB treatment. I completed 9 months of medication, and an echo test came back normal. But the heart murmur is still being detected. Could the TB meds be causing this? It all started when I began taking them. What should I do?

I'm wondering if my consistently high heart rate, which usually ranges between 97 and 116, could be linked to my high triglycerides. Could high cholesterol be a reason for this elevated heart rate? I'm really curious and a bit worried about what might be going on with my heart health.

I'm dealing with anxiety that's causing me to have chest pain, and sometimes my blood pressure goes way up. I've already done an ECG, 2D Echo, and some blood tests because of the pain. Could you take a look at my Echo report and give me some advice? I'm really worried about my health right now.

Based on your symptoms and tests, it seems like you are experiencing anxiety-induced chest pain and fluctuations in blood pressure. It's important to manage your anxiety to alleviate these symptoms. I recommend starting with an anti-anxiety medication such as Xanax (alprazolam) 0.5mg twice daily. Additionally, to help with chest pain, you can take Ibuprofen 400mg as needed for pain relief. It's also important to practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness meditation to help reduce anxiety levels. Regular exercise and a healthy diet can also contribute to overall well-being.
