I'm really worried about some symptoms I've been experiencing. Whenever I get tired, I start having short breaths and feel this chest pain. I can walk for a bit if I go slowly, but after a few minutes, I start running out of breath and the chest pain comes back. Does this sound like something serious? What should I do about it?

View allI'm trying to make sense of my Echo Report, and it's causing me a bit of concern. It mentions things like a normal LV with normal systolic function and no segmental wall motion abnormalities, which I think sounds good. However, what got my attention was the mention of mild PAH and a mild TR. I'm a bit worried if the fast heart rate during the test, which was likely due to my anxiety, might have affected the results and led to a possible misdiagnosis of PAH. I mean, I haven't really had any symptoms other than a brief episode of PVC and sometimes a slightly fast heart rate. My resting rate stays between 50-65 BPM. I'm hoping for a little clarity on whether these findings are something to be concerned about. Can fast heart rate really make a difference in diagnosis, or am I misunderstanding things here?
normal.

My fiance is just 22 and she's started having symptoms of bradycardia for about a month now. Her heart rate is averaging between 40 and 47 bpm, which seems super low, and she's getting tired really fast. She even has syncope sometimes. Her heart's actually healthy otherwise, but the doctor thinks it might be something with her body's natural pacemaker. They've recommended a pacemaker, but we're really hoping for a cure instead. Is there anything else we can explore?
Symptomatic Bradycardia with a heart rate of 40-47 bpm and exhaustion can be concerning. In cases where a pacemaker is not desired, medication therapy can be considered. One common medication used to increase heart rate in cases of symptomatic Bradycardia is Atropine. The usual dosage for Atropine in adults is 0.5 to 1 mg IV every 3 to 5 minutes as needed, with a maximum dose of 3 mg. However, the use of Atropine should be carefully monitored by a healthcare professional. It is important to follow up with your doctor for proper evaluation and management of the condition.

Im feeling my heartbeat everywhere in my body, like in my arms, legs, chest, stomach, and even my head. I'm starting to wonder if that's normal or if there might be something wrong. Any advice on what this could mean?
Feeling your heartbeat throughout your body is not always a cause for concern, but it can sometimes indicate an underlying issue, especially if accompanied by other symptoms. Start by observing your symptoms, managing stress, and reducing stimulants. If the sensation persists or worsens, consult a doctor for further evaluation and tests.
