I'm really worried about what to do if a family member, like my mom or dad, ever has chest pain, starts sweating a lot, or has pain in the arm or shoulder. What if they start vomiting too? I mean, in that moment, can I give them aspirin or sorbitrate? And if so, how much should I give? Could you explain how to properly administer it? I'm a bit anxious about this and not really sure about the right steps.

View allI'm experiencing these odd palpitations when I'm trying to sleep, but as soon as I wake up and move around a bit, they stop. I've had GERD since last September, and my recent endoscopy showed a grade 2. I've been keeping up with my health; did a TMT and checked my lipid profiles, and everything was normal. No blood pressure issues either, and I quit smoking 4 or 5 years ago, though I still have a drink now and then. My echo showed a grade 2, which makes me wonder if there's something going on with my heart or if it's all related to my esophagus issues. Also, I just started meds for fatty liverUdiliv 300, Darolac, Rifaximin 400mg, and Moza Plusand my SGPT was at 109. With a weight of 100 kg and being 5'10", I'm a bit worried. Is the grade 2 thing a sign of heart trouble, or could it be from the GERD? And is it possible for the grade 2 to be reversible?
1. AM I having any heart issues? Since grade 2 came in echo and sleeping palpitations are there. OR are these due to loose lower esophagus valve? Based on your symptoms and medical history, the palpitations you are experiencing while sleeping could be related to your grade 2 echo findings. It is important to further investigate the cause of these palpitations to rule out any underlying heart issues. I recommend you consult with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help with the palpitations. 2. Is grade 2 reversible? Grade 2 findings in an echocardiogram indicate mild abnormalities in the heart structure or function. In many cases, grade 2 abnormalities can be managed effectively with lifestyle changes and medications. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist regularly to monitor the condition and make necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. With proper management, some grade 2 abnormalities can show improvement over time.

Greetings, doctors. I'm really worried about my heart. I'm 36, weigh 45 kg, and stand 5'4". I've been through countless tests like ECG, echo, TMT, and USG, and they all show I'm normal. Despite this, I'm terrified that I'll die of a heart attack. I witnessed my cousin's grandmother die from a heart issue right in front of me a couple of years ago, and ever since, Ive been living in fear. Because of this fear, my heart's always palpitating, I have difficulty breathing, feel dizzy, and get chest pains sometimes. Even when I had palpitations, my ECG showed normal at 116 bpm. My blood pressure is also steady, usually at 12080 or 70. It's scary, and I've even quit my job over this stress. All my tests like thyroid, KFT, lipid, vitamins, and LFT are also normal. Should I consider coronary angiography or maybe something else? I'm just feeling lost and need guidance, please.
It sounds like you are experiencing a lot of anxiety and fear related to your heart health. Given your age, weight, and the normal test results you have mentioned, it is less likely that you have a serious heart condition. The symptoms you are describing, such as palpitations, difficulty breathing, dizziness, and chest pain, could be related to anxiety and panic attacks. To help alleviate your fears and symptoms, I recommend trying a medication called **Propranolol**. It is a beta-blocker that can help with palpitations, chest pain, and anxiety. You can start with a low dose of **10mg** once a day and gradually increase it as needed under medical supervision. In addition to medication, it would be beneficial for you to seek counseling or therapy to address the underlying anxiety and fear you are experiencing. **Sertraline** is an antidepressant that can also help with anxiety. You can start with a dose of **25mg** daily and adjust as needed. Remember to practice relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness, to help manage your anxiety symptoms. It is important to take care of your mental health as well as your physical health. If your symptoms persist or worsen, do not hesitate to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and support.
