I'm really worried about my brother. He's been having some chest discomfort and mild pain that sometimes happens on the left side and other times in the center. He gets really nervous, and his heart rate spikes to around 90-98 bpm when this happens, but when he's more relaxed, it goes back down to about 68-72 bpm. He runs on the treadmill for 20 to 30 minutes at least five days a week and doesn't feel any discomfort during that time. Although he has an acidity and GERD problem, he's finished his course of medication and isn't taking any other tablets. His sugar and blood pressure are normal, and chest X-rays came back fine, with an orthopaedic saying it's nothing serious and just suggesting vitamins. He also feels pain at certain points when the chest is pressed. With all these symptoms, I'm wondering if it could be his heart, acidity, muscular, or maybe even a nerve issue. Do you think an angiography would be necessary given his normal reports so far?

View allI'm looking over my brother's medical report, and I'm curious about his high sensitive troponin I levelit came back as 0.05. Is this something to worry about? Can you help me understand if this is within a normal range or if there might be cause for concern?
High sensitive troponin I level of 0.05 ngmL is within the normal range. Troponin levels are often used to diagnose heart attacks or other heart-related conditions. In this case, the level of 0.05 ngmL is not concerning and does not indicate any acute heart issues. It is important to consider other factors and symptoms in conjunction with this result for a comprehensive evaluation. If your brother is experiencing any symptoms or concerns, it is recommended to follow up with his healthcare provider for further assessment and guidance.

My dad had an angioplasty about six months ago, and now his ECG is showing mild left ventricular hypertrophy. I'm kind of worriedis this something serious? Should we be looking into any treatments for this?
Mild left ventricular hypertrophy can be a sign of an underlying heart condition, but it is not always serious on its own. Treatment may involve managing any underlying conditions such as high blood pressure or heart disease. Medications like Lisinopril (10mg daily) or Losartan (50mg daily) may be prescribed to help reduce the workload on the heart and manage blood pressure. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
