I've been dealing with this chest pain on the right side for about 34 months now. It's not constant but pops up every 10 to 15 days and only lasts for about 5 to 10 seconds. It's starting to make me a bit nervous, and I was wondering if there are any tests you think I should get done?

It is important to investigate the cause of your chest pain. I recommend you to undergo an ECG (Electrocardiogram) to check your heart's electrical activity, and an X-ray or CT scan of the chest to rule out any structural issues. Additionally, a blood test to check for cardiac enzymes and lipid profile may also be beneficial in assessing your heart health.

I'm a 28-year-old male, and I've been told I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. It's been about a week now, and I'm starting to find that I'm having a bit of trouble with breathing and noticing my heartbeat more. Sometimes it feels like my heart skips a beat, and occasionally I feel like my heart is struggling to pump. What kind of diet and exercise would be good for my condition?
For grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, it is important to focus on a heart-healthy diet and regular exercise routine. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats in your diet. Limit your intake of sodium, saturated fats, and added sugars. Stay hydrated and avoid excessive alcohol and caffeine consumption. For exercise, aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity per week, such as brisk walking, cycling, or swimming. Additionally, include strength training exercises at least twice a week to improve overall cardiovascular health. As for your symptoms of difficulty in breathing, feeling your heartbeat, and heart palpitations, it is important to monitor your condition closely. If these symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
