View allWhat could be causing my palpitations if it's not heart-related? All my tests, like the ECG, 2D echo, CBC, thyroid, and vitamin D3, came back normal. I still get palpitations randomly and also feel really tired with body aches. What might be going on?
Palpitations can be caused by various factors other than heart problems, even if your ECG, 2D echo, CBC, thyroid, and vitamin D3 levels are normal. Some possible causes of palpitations in your case could be: - Anxiety or stress - Caffeine or stimulant intake - Anemia - Dehydration - Electrolyte imbalances - Medications (such as decongestants or asthma inhalers) - Hormonal changes (such as during menstruation or menopause) To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try reducing caffeine intake, staying hydrated, managing stress through relaxation techniques, and ensuring a balanced diet. If symptoms persist, you may consider discussing with your doctor about medications like beta-blockers to help control palpitations.

I'm really worried about my brother. He had a heart attack in March 2017, and it turned out he had a 100% blockage in a left artery. He's been taking meds like planep 25mg, sexeloxon, and roustor gold10 to help with this. I'm just wondering, can medication actually remove the blockage, or is that not possible? And how do we even check if the blockage has improved or if it's still completely blocked?
To check if the blockage has been reduced or is still at 100%, he can undergo a diagnostic test called a coronary angiography. This procedure will provide detailed images of the arteries and can show if there has been any improvement in the blockage. It is important to follow up with his cardiologist for further evaluation and management."

I've been experiencing some chest pain for about a week now. It moves around a bitsometimes it's on the left side, sometimes the right, and occasionally I feel it in my back too. I'm really worried it might be something to do with my heart since I'm 31 and a bit on the heavier side. Should I be concerned about this?
Chest pain can have various causes, including heart-related issues. However, since your pain is on both sides of the chest and also on your back, it may not be directly related to the heart. It is important to rule out other potential causes such as muscle strain or gastrointestinal issues. You can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain. However, it is crucial to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
