I've been experiencing some pain in my left armpit and the far left side of my chest, near the armpit, for almost an hour. It's not super sharp, but it's definitely something I've never felt before. It went away after a while, and I feel fine now. Do you think I should be worried about this?

View allI'm kind of worried because my recent TMT test was mildly positive, yet my cholesterol, BP, and ECG results were all normal. My doctor is suggesting an angiogram, but it's pretty expensive for me. Do you think it's really necessary to go through with it?
A mildly positive TMT test result, especially when other parameters like cholesterol, blood pressure, and ECG are normal, may indicate a potential issue with blood flow to the heart. An angiogram is considered the gold standard for evaluating blockages in the coronary arteries. However, in some cases, additional non-invasive tests such as a CT coronary angiography may provide further information before proceeding with an invasive procedure. It is important to discuss the necessity and potential alternatives with your doctor based on your individual health situation.

I've been feeling like someone is poking me with a pin or needle in my chest. It's not exactly painful, more like a sensation that's making me feel restless. It's been going on for about a week and seems to have gotten slightly worse. I'm a bit worried because visiting hospitals seems risky right now with all the COVID outbreaks. Do you have any idea what might be happening to me?

What is a heart cough?
Heavy breathing accompanied by spells of wet cough with frothy sputum that may be tinged with blood is called as "Cardiac cough or Heart cough". It is a sign of congestive heart failure. Additional symptoms such as shortness of breath on exertion or rest, leg swelling, waking up from sleep in the middle of night gasping and coughing differentiate heart cough from cough due to lung conditions.
