I've been having chest pain for the last 10 days and I'm really concerned because both my ECG and 2D Echo results came back normal. They mentioned something about PAH and mild TR. Could you please suggest what kind of medication or next steps I should consider?

Echo suggestive of tricuspid regurgitation , hence cardiologist opinion is advised for further management of the patient.

I've been having these frequent palpitations lately, and my heart seems to be pounding harder than usual. I had an echo done a couple of months ago, and it came out normal. I just did an ECG a couple of days ago, and I've attached the results. Should I be worried about this?

The ECG you have attached shows sinus tachycardia, which means your heart is beating faster than normal. Since your echo two months back was normal, this may be due to other factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, or thyroid issues. I recommend you to take a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate and palpitations. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm a 23-year-old guy experiencing some weird chest pains that also hit my shoulders, arms, back, and even my abdomen. It's like a burning pain that moves around, and I'm worried because it's not constant. I went to the doctor, and they said my ECG is normal, but I still don't know what's going on. Any ideas on what might be causing this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of musculoskeletal pain or nerve irritation. To help with the pain in your chest, arms, shoulders, and back, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief gel like Volini gel on the affected areas for relief. Make sure to avoid any activities that worsen the pain and try to maintain good posture. If the pain persists or worsens, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been feeling pretty anxious about my heart health lately. A while back, I did an ECG, echo, chest X-ray twice, and a TMT, and it was like 8 months ago. My BP is usually around 150, and my LDL is 138. I got a blood test, and it was normal. I'm on the heavier side but don't smoke or drink and there's no family history of heart issues. Still, I get these short, sharp pains in my left chest, like they disappear in seconds, and sometimes there's this bubbling or vibrating sensation there too. Plus, there are moments when my left chest and bicep feel like they're pounding, just for a few seconds. Recently, when I'm walking, it feels like I'm wobbling or floating, and my legs and hands feel lighter. The doctor said not to worry and just keep my BP and LDL in check, but I'm still worried. What should I do?

"Based on your symptoms and medical history, it is important to focus on controlling your blood pressure and LDL levels to reduce the risk of heart issues. In addition to lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and a balanced diet, you may benefit from medication to manage your blood pressure and cholesterol levels. I recommend starting a medication like Atorvastatin (10mg) to lower your LDL levels and Amlodipine (5mg) to help control your blood pressure. It is important to take these medications as prescribed by your doctor and follow up regularly for monitoring and adjustments if needed."
