I've been feeling strange sensations in my heart, especially when I get home after work, and at first I thought it was from drinking too much coffee. I've cut down on coffee but the feeling is still there. I do drink 2 coffees and 4 cups of tea every day. I also exercise regularly, like doing push-ups and lifting weights. Should I be worried about these symptoms? Could it be linked to my caffeine intake, or might there be something else going on?

View allI'm really worried about my husband. About eight months ago, he had some chest pain, so we went for a check-up. They did an ECG, an echo, and a stress test, and thankfully everything seemed normal, but he had high blood pressure and his triglycerides were around 250. He's been on medication for BP since then, including Prolomet XL 50, Hytel H, Tonact D, and Nulong 5mg. But just yesterday, he experienced chest pain again. We went to the doctor and did another ECG, which came back normal. The doctor said it might be muscle pain and gave him some pain medicine. I'm still worried it could be related to his heart. Should we be looking at other tests, like an echo again or something else, to be sure everything's okay with his heart?
It is good that your husband's ECG results have been normal. Since he has a history of chest pain and high triglycerides, it is important to monitor his heart health closely. Given the symptoms of chest pain, it would be advisable to follow up with an echocardiogram (echo) to assess the structure and function of the heart. Additionally, considering his risk factors, a stress test or a coronary angiography may also be recommended by the doctor to further evaluate his heart health and rule out any underlying heart conditions. In the meantime, continue with the prescribed medications including Prolomet XL 50 for blood pressure, Hytel H for hypertension, Tonact D for cholesterol, and Nulong 5mg.

I've been experiencing shortness of breath when I'm walking, climbing stairs, or doing physical activities. My throat gets really dry, and I feel pain in my neck and back. After eating, I often feel heaviness in my chest and have trouble breathing, and sometimes my heart races. Could these be symptoms of a heart issue? I'm really worried about it.
it might be due to low hemoglobin, do complete blood count
