I've done all the tests like an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal, but I've been having this pain on my left side of the chest for a month now. I'm worried because it feels like it might be leading up to a heart attack. Could it still be something heart-related even if the tests were okay?

Since your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, your chest pain may not be related to a heart attack. However, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your chest pain. You can try taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for the chest pain. If the pain persists or worsens, you may consider taking an antacid like omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once a day to see if it helps with the pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and stress management may also be beneficial.

I'm a bit worried about my X-ray report. It mentions "prominent markings" in the right lower zone of my chest. What exactly does that mean? Should I be concerned about this finding?

I'm really worried about my health. Every year I get a check-up done, and back in November 2019 at Narayana Hrudyalaya Bangalore, everything was fine my ECG, Echo, and cholesterol were all normal. But I recently did another cholesterol test, and the results are making me anxious: Total cholesterol is 180, Triglycerides 130, HDL 15, Direct LDL 137, and Non-HDL 165. Lately, I've been feeling this discomfort in my arms and sometimes around my neck, which only lasts a few seconds, but it's got me really concerned about a possible heart attack. My blood pressure is at 12880, and I've been on BP meds for four years now. Back in 2017, both the Holter and Ambulatory tests were normal too, just like the Echo and ECG from November 2019. I'm questioning if there's something serious happening. Should I get another Echo? Is an angiogram necessary? I'm pretty scared and would appreciate any advice.

Given your normal results from previous ECG, Echo, and Holter tests, as well as your relatively controlled blood pressure and current cholesterol levels, it's reassuring to some extent. However, the discomfort in your arms and neck, although lasting only a few seconds, deserves attention, especially given your fear of a heart attack. It would be wise to discuss these new symptoms with your cardiologist. They may recommend repeating some tests, such as an ECG or an Echo, to ensure no changes have occurred since your last evaluation. Depending on their assessment, they may also consider a stress test or a coronary angiogram to rule out any significant coronary artery disease. It's important to address these concerns promptly to alleviate your fears and ensure your heart health is appropriately managed.
