I've been dealing with chest pain for the past one and a half months. I've had a chest X-ray, ECG, Echo, and TMT done, and all the reports came back normal. I even went to a cardiologist, and he said it's not related to my heart. The pain started about a week after I found out I have high BP. I'm currently taking Prolomet AM, Pantocid IT, Drise 60k, and Rozavel. The pain feels like muscle pain on the upper side of my chest, on both sides. Sometimes, it feels like a pinch all over my chest. It also extends to my underarms and neck occasionally, and I feel tightness, especially on the upper right side of my chest. I sometimes have itching in my chest and sensations below my chin and jawline. What's strange is that I feel a bit better after some physical activity, like exercising or walking. Could you help me figure out what's going on? What should I do next?

View allI'm really worried about my heart. This morning, I had these palpitations and ended up going to the ER. They ran an ECG and did an echo, which came back normal, but the doctor suggested an ablation. I keep having palpitations even when I'm just climbing the stairs, and now I'm on these Dilzem tablets. Sometimes it feels like my heart actually stops and then starts again. Should I be concerned about this? Is there something serious going on?
It sounds like you are experiencing palpitations and irregular heartbeats. The medication prescribed to you, Dilzem tablet, contains the active ingredient Diltiazem. This medication is a calcium channel blocker that helps to regulate your heart rate and rhythm. The usual dosage for Dilzem in such cases is 120-360 mg per day, divided into 3-4 doses. Feeling like your heart stops and then starts can be concerning, and it is important to follow up with your doctor about this symptom. It could be related to the underlying heart condition that is causing your palpitations. If you continue to experience this sensation, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my dad who's 59 and just got told he has a 'Non specific T abnormality' and 'Flat T wave' in his ECG. He's had a 2D echo too, showing a 60 LVEF and no RWMA at rest. Is this something we should be concerned about?

I've been dealing with high blood pressure and tachycardia since 2012 and it's been pretty frustrating. I've done all sorts of tests and nothing seems to be working out. It's especially annoying with the tachycardia because whenever I start on medication, it works for a bit, then just stops being effective after a while. Right now, I'm taking a mix of meds including metoprolol 150mg (50mg three times a day), ntp 25mg, prazosin 5mg, diltiazem 90 Sr, cilnidipine 10mg, and losartan 50mg among others. This whole situation is starting to feel a bit hopeless. I'm curious if there's anything else I should be trying, or if there's some reason these meds lose effectiveness so quickly. Any insight you could give would be really appreciated.
