I'm really worried because my husband keeps having this slight pain and tightness in the center of his chest. It's especially bothersome when he coughs or takes a deep breath during these episodes. It's not happening all the time, but I'm not sure if we should investigate heart problems or something else. There aren't any other symptoms to go off of. What should we do?

Hey, I'm 43 and generally healthy, but I recently had an ECG done. It says my heart rate is 66 beats per minute with a sinus rhythm, but there are nonspecific ST-T changes in III and aVF. I'm not sure what that means. Should I be concerned? Can you help explain this to me?
The ECG report showing a heart rate of 66 beatsminute with sinus rhythm and nonspecific ST-T changes in III and aVF may indicate possible heart conditions such as myocardial ischemia or electrolyte imbalances. To address this, you can take Aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent blood clot formation and improve blood flow to the heart. Additionally, you can take Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with palpitations since 2009, and although I've had some treatment, they haven't completely stoppedjust reduced in frequency. The doctor advised me to take Rivotril when they start, since they never seem to stop on their own. I'm worried about why they persist and if there's something else I could try? Could there be long-term effects if I'm taking Rivotril for so long? Any advice would be appreciated.
Since you have been experiencing palpitations since 2009 and have been advised to take rivotril when they occur, I recommend discussing with your doctor about trying beta-blockers such as Metoprolol at a low dose to help manage the palpitations more effectively. The usual starting dose for Metoprolol is 25mg once daily, which can be adjusted based on your response. Beta-blockers are commonly used to reduce the frequency and severity of palpitations by regulating the heart rate and rhythm.
