I've been having chest pain for the past few months, and sometimes it's on the left side as well. I've noticed it in my left hand too. It kind of comes and goes on its own. Could you suggest what might be going on or what steps I should take?

View allIve been getting this warm sensation near my left ribs and just below my breast lately. I went for a master checkup and had an ECG and 2D Echo done, and everything came back normal. But I couldn't do the TMT test because of an ACL ligament tear, so walking on the treadmill isn't an option for me. Do you think I need the TMT or any other tests to make sure it's not a heart issue?
Since your ECG and 2D Echo reports are normal, it is less likely that the heat feeling near your left ribs and below your breast is related to a heart issue. However, considering your symptoms, it may still be beneficial to undergo further testing to rule out any other potential causes. One option could be a CT scan or MRI to evaluate the area near your left ribs and below your breast for any abnormalities. Additionally, a consultation with a gastroenterologist may also be helpful to assess for any gastrointestinal issues that could be causing your symptoms.

I've been dealing with low blood pressure, and whenever I'm lying down, it drops to around 90 over 55. It's pretty unsettling because I feel lightheaded when that happens. I've tried drinking saltwater and coffee, but it doesn't seem to help much. I've read that having a low diastolic blood pressure could lead to heart failure since the coronary heart artery gets its supply during diastole. Is this true? And what steps can I take to prevent my blood pressure from falling below safe levels? Also, is having such low blood pressure dangerous?
Low blood pressure can indeed lead to symptoms like lightheadedness, especially when changing positions. To help manage your low blood pressure, you can try increasing your salt intake and staying hydrated. Additionally, wearing compression stockings can help improve blood flow. In terms of medication, you can consider taking Midodrine to help raise your blood pressure. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult with your healthcare provider for proper management.

I'm 28 and just got my echo results. It says I have a mitral valve prolapse with mild mitral regurgitation and a tricuspid valve prolapse with mild tricuspid regurgitation. My LEVF is 60, and my heart rate is 110. Should I be worried about these findings? Is this something serious?
Based on your echo report, the presence of mild mitral valve prolapse and regurgitation, as well as mild tricuspid valve prolapse and regurgitation, along with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 60% and a heart rate of 110 beats per minute, indicate some abnormalities in your heart function. While mild valve prolapse and regurgitation are common and may not cause significant issues, it is important to monitor them regularly. To address the mild regurgitation and prolapse, you can take medication such as beta-blockers like Metoprolol Succinate (Toprol XL) to help regulate your heart rate and reduce strain on the valves. Additionally, you may benefit from ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril (Zestril) to help manage any potential heart failure risk. It is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your heart condition. Regular monitoring and lifestyle modifications, such as maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking, can also help manage these conditions and prevent any serious complications.
