I've been having this odd pinching sensation on my left side, and my doctor suggested getting a 2D Echo and an ECG. They said everything came back normal, but now I'm finding it harder to breathe. I'm not really sure what's going on. Can anyone offer a second opinion on this? I've got my 2D Echo and ECG reports attached.

Based on the symptoms you are experiencing and the normal results of your 2d Echo and Ecg, it is possible that you may be dealing with a respiratory issue. I recommend trying an inhaler such as Salbutamol (Ventolin) 100mcg, 2 puffs as needed for shortness of breath. Additionally, you can consider using a steroid inhaler like Fluticasone (Flovent) 100mcg, 2 puffs twice a day to help with any underlying inflammation in the airways. It would also be beneficial to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and possible pulmonary function tests.

View allI'm a bit concerned because I've been having chest pain for the past week. I got an echo done and it came out normal, but my TMT results showed mild positive for inducible ischemia. My cholesterol numbers are also worrying me - HDL is 34, triglycerides are at 195, and total cholesterol is 209. I don't smoke and I'm trying to follow the diet and lifestyle changes my cardiologist suggested but I'm still feeling worried. I'm 31 years old and my blood pressure is at 14080. Do you think I might need an angiogram?
Based on your symptoms and test results, it's important to continue following the advice of your cardiologist regarding diet changes and lifestyle activities. In addition, considering your age and the mild positive TMT result, an angiogram may be recommended to further evaluate any potential blockages in your coronary arteries. To help manage your cholesterol levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to lower your total cholesterol and triglycerides. It's important to continue monitoring your blood pressure and cholesterol levels regularly.

I'm a 28-year-old woman and I've noticed something odd with my heart rate. Even though I don't have any family history of heart disease and I'm generally healthy, my heart suddenly races from normal up to 127 to 170 bpm. This happens when I'm just resting or even asleep and can last for 5 to 15 minutes each time. It occurs about 2 to 5 times a day and I've been experiencing this since I was 7 years old. I'm starting to get a bit worried about it. What could be causing this?
u require echo test and a cardiologist opinion

I'm currently on clopidogrel 75 mg and aspirin 75 mg daily. I'm thinking of switching to clopitab CV 20 mg instead. Is it okay for my health to stop the aspirin and just take clopitab CV 20 mg? Would love to hear your opinion on whether this is a good idea or not.
NO u have to continue all the medications including aspirin also.
