I've been experiencing chest pain on the left side for about 8 months now. I've had an ECG and an Echo, and both came back normal. I even did a TMT test, and it was negative too, even though it showed a heart problem. But I'm still having this chest pain. Could you shed some light on what might be going on? It's really concerning.

View allI'm worried about my pulse rate, which tends to be pretty high, between 100 and 120, and sometimes even hits 130 or more. I just got over dengue and noticed my pulse was between 90 and 110 during that time. Should I see a cardiologist right away, or is it okay to give my body a few days to rest first?
It is important to monitor your pulse rate closely, especially after recovering from dengue. A persistently high pulse rate can be a sign of an underlying issue that may need medical attention. In your case, since your pulse rate is consistently high and has even increased after recovering from dengue, it would be advisable to consult a cardiologist sooner rather than later. The cardiologist can evaluate your condition, perform any necessary tests, and recommend appropriate treatment. It is better to address any potential concerns promptly to ensure your heart health is optimal.

I'm really worried because my uncle just had a heart attack and we're in a different country than he is. He's been in intensive care for around 6 hours now. Does that mean it's not life-threatening anymore? How long do people usually survive after having a heart attack? Just trying to understand what we should expect.
The time elapsed since the heart attack occurred is an important factor in determining the prognosis. The first few hours after a heart attack are critical, and the sooner medical treatment is received, the better the chances of survival and recovery. Being in intensive care means that he is receiving close monitoring and specialized care to address any complications that may arise. It is difficult to predict the outcome without knowing the specific details of his case, but being in intensive care is a positive sign that he is receiving the necessary treatment. It is important to follow the advice of the medical team caring for your uncle.

I'm really confused. My ECG, TMT, and 2D Echo all came back negative, but I'm still experiencing chest pain and pain in my left upper arm. What should I do next?
This could be due to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). You can try taking over-the-counter medication like Imodium (Loperamide) 2mg after meals to help reduce the frequency of bowel movements. Additionally, make sure to drink plenty of water and eat a high-fiber diet to regulate your bowel movements.
