I've been having this really awful chest pain for about a month now, and it sometimes feels like my heartbeat is a bit off. After doing a bunch of research, I think it might be esophageal spasms. I went to the ER twice, and they said my EKG and heart monitor were fine. My doctor gave me muscle relaxers, which help with the spasms, but I still cant shake this terrible feeling in my chest. My blood pressure seems okay, it's usually around 120 over 86. I keep feeling my pulse all down my chest and arms, and its been really hard to get any sleep. Could there be something else going on that Im missing?

View allI'm a bit concerned about my wife's recent master health checkup. Her ECG results came back abnormal, but her TMT was normal. Could you help us understand what the abnormal ECG might mean? We would appreciate any insights you have.
I cannot view attachments, but if your wifes ECG results show abnormalities, it could indicate various issues like arrhythmias, heart strain, or other conditions. Since her TMT was normal, its a positive sign, but I would recommend discussing the ECG results further with her doctor to pinpoint the exact cause and get proper guidance.

I'm a bit worried because I recently experienced a sudden increase in my heart rate, and when I got an ECG, it showed something called an ST abnormality. I'm wondering, is this a cause for concern? Does it often show up on ECGs, or should I be more alarmed about it?
ST abnormalities in an ECG can indicate various cardiac conditions. It is important to determine the specific type of ST abnormality (e.g. ST elevation or ST depression) and its location on the ECG. ST abnormalities can be seen in conditions such as myocardial infarction, angina, pericarditis, myocarditis, or electrolyte imbalances. Given your sudden increase in heart rate and the presence of ST abnormalities on your ECG, it is important to further evaluate the underlying cause. Depending on the severity and type of ST abnormality, treatment may include medications such as aspirin, nitroglycerin, beta-blockers, or interventions like angioplasty or surgery. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.
