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 concerning symptoms like chest pain on my left side, shortness of breath, and my blood pressure seems higher than usual. On top of that, I've been dealing with numbness in my leg and arm and noticed some bed sores appearing on my bum. I also have this persistent headache that's been bothering me. Should I be worried about these symptoms, and what could be causing them? Would love your advice on what steps I should take next.

I'm feeling a lot of heaviness in my chest and I'm having trouble breathing. It's like I can't take a full breath and whenever I try, it feels like it just stops and I can't hold it in for long. What could this be?

I've noticed when I'm lying down that I can really feel my heartbeat in my left chest and sometimes even in other parts of my body. I've already had an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal. My anxiety has been under control, but this is still happening. Could it be something else or is this just something normal?

can be due to benign causes such as heightened awareness of your heartbeat (palpitations) or muscle twitching. This can be exacerbated by anxiety. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to reduce the sensation of palpitations. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga can also be beneficial in managing these symptoms.
