I've been having some strange symptoms lately when I masturbate or watch intimate scenes. My chest gets tight, it feels like there's a lump in my throat, and I have shortness of breath. I sometimes even feel light-headed with my heart racing. I've had heart and lung tests but everything came back normal. Do you have any idea what this might be?

View allI've been having chest pain for the past two months along with a fast heartbeat but my ECG came back normal. Next week I'm scheduled for inguinal scrotal hernia surgery and my PFT test showed small airway obstruction with severe restriction on spirometry though the doctor said it's fine. Should I be concerned about these results or is there something else I should do?

I'm looking for some advice about my heart health. I had a CT coronary angiogram about three years ago because I was having chest pains and my exercise capacity was low. The results showed no significant stenosis in any artery, but Im wondering if minor blockages might have been overlooked. Also, it mentioned that my circulation is left dominant, and I'm curious if that could be related to my chest pain. Do you think it's necessary to repeat the CT angio even though I'm worried about the radiation exposure?
If your CT coronary angiogram from 3 years ago showed no significant stenosis in any artery, it means that there were no major blockages detected at that time. Minor blocks may not have been mentioned in the report because they were not significant enough to cause concern. The fact that your circulation is left dominant is just a variation in the blood supply to your heart and is not necessarily a cause for chest pain. Based on the information provided, if you are still experiencing chest pains or other concerning symptoms, it may be advisable to consult with a cardiologist to determine if a repeat CT angio or other cardiac tests are necessary. However, the decision to repeat the CT angio should be based on your current symptoms and risk factors, rather than just for routine surveillance. It is important to weigh the potential benefits of the test against the risks of radiation exposure.

I'm worried because I've noticed that my heartbeat seems irregular over the past couple of days. It's almost like my heart has these hiccups that occur about 57 times a day. While I'm not experiencing any pain, nausea, or discomfort, it just feels really strange to have this abnormal beat in between my normal heartbeats. What could be going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations. Palpitations are sensations that feel like your heart is pounding or racing. In your case, it seems like you are experiencing occasional irregular heartbeats. One common cause of palpitations is stress or anxiety. However, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend you to take **Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor)** 25mg once daily. Metoprolol is a beta-blocker that can help regulate your heart rate and rhythm. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and monitoring. If you experience any worsening symptoms or new symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or fainting, seek immediate medical attention.
