I've been feeling this weird fluttering sensation in the middle of my chest, and it's really bothering me. It seems to hit me especially hard after I eat or when I've been doing some work, and it makes it tough to breathe. I also get this faint feeling that I can't shake off. I'm not coughing exactly, though there are times when I feel like I might start. On top of that, my back has been aching, and it's hard to stand upright. What could be causing all of this?

View allI had a little bike skid yesterday and it really scared me. I felt a bit of anxiety and had a little heart pain, but luckily no injuries. I went to see the doctor and they did an ECG to check for any problems. Is there anything else I should be worried about or any other steps I should take to make sure everything is okay?
It is good that you got your ECG checked by a doctor to rule out any problems. For anxiety and heart pain, you can take a medication like Xanax (Alprazolam) 0.25mg as needed for anxiety relief. For heart pain, you can take Aspirin 81mg once daily to help with any inflammation or discomfort. Remember to follow up with your doctor if you have any persistent symptoms or concerns.

I'm a 27-year-old who's just gone through some heart tests like the ECHO, ECG, and Holter. The ECHO test showed something called grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, and the ECG came up with sinus tachycardia. Thankfully, the Holter test was normal. Should I be worried about these results? And is there a way to get the diastolic dysfunction back to normal?
based on your test results, it seems like you have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, sinus tachycardia, and a normal Holter report. Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction is the mildest form of diastolic dysfunction and may not cause any symptoms. To help reverse diastolic dysfunction, it is important to focus on lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet low in salt, exercising regularly, managing stress, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. In terms of medication, your doctor may prescribe medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril or ARBs like Losartan to help improve heart function. It is also important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your condition and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. If you have any concerns or notice any new symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management."
