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 curious about some symptoms I've been experiencing. A few months back, I did an echo report and a TMT, which came back negative. Lately, though, I've been having this pressure and a burning sensation in my chest, plus a lot of burping. I'm a bit worriedis this something heart-related? Should I consider getting more tests done to check my heart health? Would love to hear your thoughts.
based on your symptoms of pressure in chest, burping, burning sensation, and pain in chest, it is important to further evaluate your heart health. In addition to the echo report and negative TMT, I would recommend a few more tests for a comprehensive heart evaluation. 1. **ECG (Electrocardiogram)**: To assess the electrical activity of your heart. 2. **Holter Monitor**: To monitor your heart's activity over a period of time. 3. **Cardiac CT Scan or MRI**: To get detailed images of your heart's structure and function. 4. **Blood tests**: Such as lipid profile and cardiac enzymes to check for any abnormalities. Based on the results of these tests, further treatment or management can be determined.

I'm really worried about my wife. She's been having chest pain and the doctor recommended an ultrasound and an ECG. The ultrasound turned out normal, but the ECG showed something concerning. It mentioned "old high lateral MI." What does this mean, and what should we do next?
Your wife seems to have an old high lateral myocardial infarction based on the ECG findings. To manage her chest pain and heart condition, she can take Aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent blood clot formation and reduce the risk of heart attack. Additionally, she can take Clopidogrel 75mg once daily to further prevent blood clots. It is important for her to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about some symptoms I'm experiencing. I've been feeling this pain in the middle of my chest on the left side, and the back of my chest is hurting too. There's also a burning sensation in my stomach and esophagus, along with a cough. I went to the hospital and the doctor diagnosed it as burning in the stomach, gave me some medicine and an injection, and I felt a bit better afterward. But when I visited a physician later on, they did an ECG and mentioned something about a "left anterior hemiblock." Can you help me understand what might be going on or what this could mean?
The symptoms described by your father, including pain in the mid chest on the left side, burning in the stomach and esophagus, cough, and relief after medication and injection, along with the diagnosis of left anterior hemiblock on ECG, suggest that he may be experiencing symptoms related to acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). To help manage his symptoms, he can take a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole (20mg) once daily before breakfast. Additionally, he can take an antacid like Tums (500mg) as needed for immediate relief of burning in the stomach. It is also important for him to avoid spicy and fatty foods, as well as eating large meals close to bedtime. Regular follow-up with his physician is recommended to monitor his condition and adjust treatment as needed.
