I've been experiencing some mild chest pain and discomfort when I breathe. It's a bit concerning, and I'm wondering what could be causing this. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that could resolve on its own? Could it be related to stress, or should I get it checked out immediately?

View allI'm really worried because a couple of months ago, I had some chest pain and when they did an ECG, it showed slight ST elevation in V3 and V4. The cardiologist I saw said it wasnt heart-related, but just to be sure, he had me do a TMT, and that turned out negative. Now, I had chest pain again and went to the hospital. They did another ECG that showed sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia and ST elevation, possibly early repolarization with normally inflected T wave, and called it a borderline ECG. Should I be concerned about something serious going on here?
"Based on your description, it seems like you are experiencing chest pain with some concerning ECG findings. The ST elevation in V3 and V4 from the previous ECG, along with the ST elevation and early repolarization in the recent ECG, can be worrisome. However, since your cardiologist has already ruled out any significant heart issues with a negative TMT, it is less likely to be related to your heart. The presence of sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia indicates normal heart rhythm variation, which is usually not concerning. Early repolarization with borderline ECG findings can sometimes be a normal variant in young, healthy individuals. To address your chest pain and ECG findings, your doctor may consider monitoring your symptoms, lifestyle modifications, and possibly medication. In case of persistent or worsening symptoms, further evaluation or consultation with a cardiologist may be necessary. For symptomatic relief of chest pain, you can consider taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan."

I'm concerned because my blood pressure is 140, and I've been experiencing strange sensations in my heart. Sometimes it's like palpitations, and other times it feels as if my heart might stop beating. I've already done an ECG, and it came back normal, so my doctor prescribed me Met XL 25 for my BP. Does a normal ECG mean my heart is okay? Should I be worried about these symptoms, or are they serious? What should I do next?
Your BP is 140 and you are experiencing a weird feeling in your heart, sometimes palpitations, and sometimes feeling like your heart will stop beating. You have done an ECG which came out normal. Your doctor has prescribed Met XL 25 for your BP. ECG being normal indicates that your heart is functioning normally. However, your symptoms of palpitations and strange feelings in the heart should not be ignored. Considering your symptoms and BP level, it is important to follow up with your doctor. In addition to Met XL 25 for BP, you can also take a beta-blocker like Atenolol 25mg to help with palpitations and irregular heartbeats. It is important to monitor your BP regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and managing stress to improve your heart health.

Had open heart surgery with a bental procedure back in August 2014 and now dealing with seroma pinna swelling and fluid buildup in my outer ear. The doctor suggested either needle drainage or surgery, but I'm on daily warfarin 10mg. Is it safe to go ahead with either option given the blood thinners?
yes, can use blood thinner.
