I've been feeling really worn out and having a hard time sleeping because of my breathing troubles. I recently found out my ejection fraction is at 40. I'm super worried about it and want to know what I can do to feel better and improve my situation. Any advice on how to handle this?

I'm experiencing some pain in my shoulder and arm, and it seems to be affecting the left side of my chest too. It's making it a bit hard to breathe. My current weight is 68 kg. Can you help me figure out what this might be?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart condition. The combination of pain in the left shoulder, arm, and chest, along with breathing problems, could be indicative of a heart issue. One common condition that presents with these symptoms is angina. I recommend you to take Aspirin 325mg immediately and call emergency services. It is important to seek medical attention promptly in such cases.

I'm really confused about what's going on with my heart. My ECG came back positive, but my TMT, Echo, and CT Coronary Angiogram are all normal. I constantly feel this pain that seems to start in my left hand and move to my chest. What could this mean? Should I be worried about this combination of results and symptoms?

The pain radiating from your left hand to your chest could be indicative of musculoskeletal pain, such as costochondritis or muscle strain. I would recommend taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for pain relief. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the affected area and practicing relaxation techniques may also help alleviate your symptoms. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
