I've been feeling really anxious and out of breath for the past month. This breathlessness sticks with me all day and seems to come and go unpredictably. My ECG showed sinus tachycardia. Could this be causing my anxiety and breathing issues? I'm really worried about what this means and could use some guidance.

If your symptoms are persistent or worsening, or if you experience severe breathlessness, chest pain, or dizziness, please seek immediate medical attention, as these could be signs of a more serious underlying condition that needs to be addressed.

In conclusion, while your sinus tachycardia may be related to anxiety and stress, its crucial to work closely with your healthcare provider to rule out any other potential causes and to manage your symptoms effectively.

I'm experiencing some persistent chest pain, and it's been going on for over two months now. It feels like a pinching pain right in the middle of my chest, but sometimes it shifts to the right or left side. There are also times when my heart starts beating really fast. I've had an ECG, echo, and TMT done, and all the results came back normal. I'm still feeling this pain and it's quite unsettling. Could you help me figure out what might be going on or suggest what I should do next?

it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of non-cardiac chest pain. Since your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, the chest pain may not be related to your heart. One common cause of such symptoms could be acid reflux or GERD. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Tums or Rolaids to see if it helps with the chest pain. Additionally, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast to reduce stomach acid production. If the symptoms persist, you may need to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management. It's also important to avoid trigger foods like spicy, fatty, or acidic foods. Remember to follow up with your healthcare provider if the symptoms continue."

I'm feeling some tightness in my heart, and after going to the cardiologist, they gave me prothiaden tablets. What exactly are these tablets for? I'm a bit anxious about what they do and why they're necessary in my case. Can you explain more about it?

I've been feeling a strange vibration in my chest after running and sometimes while I'm running. Its kind of weird and Im a bit worried. Two years back, my TMT, echo, and ECG came out normal, and I even had a CT angiogram a year ago, which was fine. My Holter monitor results were okay too. What could be causing this sensation, and should I be concerned about something else going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations or a sensation of vibration in your chest during or after running. Since your TMT, echo, ECG, CT angiogram, and Holter monitor have been normal in the past, it is less likely to be related to any structural or electrical heart issues. One possible cause could be related to increased sympathetic activity during exercise. It is important to stay hydrated and ensure you are not overexerting yourself during physical activity. If the symptoms persist or worsen, you may consider discussing with your doctor about trying a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (dosage can vary) to help control heart rate and palpitations during exercise.
