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?

I'm 22 years old and my weight is 112. I recently had an ECG done because I was feeling anxious, and it shows PACs with sinus rhythm. I'm really worried about what this means. Can you help me understand if everything's okay with my ECG?

Premature Atrial Contractions (PACs) with a sinus rhythm can be a common finding and are often benign, especially in younger individuals. They can occur due to stress, anxiety, caffeine, or other stimulants. Given that you were feeling anxiety at the time of the ECG, it is possible that this contributed to the PACs. However, it's important to discuss these findings with your healthcare provider to ensure there are no underlying issues and to get personalized advice. They may recommend further monitoring or lifestyle adjustments to help manage your symptoms.

I'm 16 and recently had an electrocardiograph that showed I have incomplete RBBB. The doctors mentioned it might be related to my tonsils because they get inflamed a few times a year, and they're suggesting I get them removed. I tried finding more info about this link between tonsils and RBBB but didn't come across anything helpful. Could you explain how they're connected or if you've seen anything like this before?

My mom had an angioplasty about 36 hours ago with two stents placed because her artery was fully blocked. Now she's in the ICU and her heart rate is pretty high, like around 152 bpm, and it's averaging about 125 bpm. Plus, she's had low blood pressure a few times. Is this something we should be worried about? Could these be signs of any complications? Would really appreciate your advice.

The low blood pressure could be a result of reduced heart function or other factors. To address the high heart rate, a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol can be prescribed to help lower the heart rate. It is important to consult a cardiologist to assess her cardiac function in detail.
