I've been feeling this heavy sensation and pressure on my chest, and it's making it hard to breathe. There's no actual pain, but it's definitely worrying me. What could be causing this shortness of breath? Should I be concerned?

I'm a 25-year-old woman with a BMI of 22.5, and I've been having episodes of tachycardia from time to time. My resting heart rate is usually in the 90s to low 100s, and I don't have any personal or family history of heart disease or drug use. The most recent episode happened yesterday, and I finally got an EKG. It showed sinus tachycardia with a short PR of 100. I work in an outpatient clinic, and a coworker did the EKG for me. Should I be worried about this?

I'm feeling pretty anxious because I recently had some chest pain and my doctor recommended a CT angiography. The report mentions something about a small segment of myocardial bridging in the mid LAD. I'm really worried about what this means. Is it a big deal? Should I rush to consult a specialist, or is this something that I can keep an eye on for now? Would really appreciate your thoughts on this.
Myocardial bridging is a condition where a segment of a coronary artery tunnels through the myocardium rather than resting on top of it. In most cases, myocardial bridging is considered a benign condition and does not require any specific treatment. However, in some cases, it can lead to symptoms such as chest pain, especially during physical exertion. In your case, since you are experiencing chest pain and have already been advised angiography, it would be best to follow up with a cardiologist. They can further evaluate your condition and determine if any additional treatment or monitoring is necessary. In the meantime, you can manage your symptoms with medications like beta-blockers or calcium channel blockers to help relieve chest pain.
