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 dealing with CAD and recently found out from my CT Angio test that there's a 60-70% blockage in my LDA artery. I've been reading up on EECP and Bio Chemical Angioplasty online, and I've talked to some folks who've undergone EECP. I'm trying to figure out if it's actually effective. Also, do you know what medication is used in Bio Chemical Angioplasty? And once I've gone through it, how long can I expect the blockage to stay away?
Yes that procedure is good you can get it done if adviced no problem, recurrence would be on your lifestyle and diet pattern,maintain healthy lifestyle to avoid recurrence

I was really stressed out and had a day where I experienced palpitations. It's been about a month since then, and I went in for both an ECG and an echocardiogram. The doctors told me everything looked normal, but I noticed a Q wave in lead 3 on my ECG. Is that something I should be worried about, or is it considered normal?
Seeing a q wave in lead 3 on an ECG can sometimes be a normal variant and not necessarily indicative of any heart condition. However, it is important to consider the overall clinical context and additional factors. In this case, since your ECG and echo results were reported as normal by your doctors, it is likely that the q wave in lead 3 is not a cause for concern. It would be advisable to continue monitoring your symptoms and follow up with your healthcare provider for any further evaluation if needed.
