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?

I'm really worried about my mom. She had chest pain a week ago and her ECG showed T wave inversion in V4, V5, and V6. The echo also showed rwma. We started her on clopidogrel and nicorandil. Today, both the ECG and echo came back normal. What should we do next?

Since the recent ECG and echo results are normal, it is a positive sign. However, considering the previous findings, it is important to continue monitoring her closely. I would recommend continuing with Clopidogrel to prevent blood clots and Nicorandil to help with chest pain. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management should be followed. Regular follow-up visits with her cardiologist are also important to ensure her heart health is maintained.

Hey there, so my wife had some trouble breathing last Sunday night. We managed to see a doctor by Tuesday, and after doing an ECG, we found out theres this change called ischemia. The doctor said it's not serious and not to worry, and we even did an echo which turned out normal. But they still prescribed ecosprin tabs, and now I'm a bit confused. Is this something I should be really worried about, or can I take it easy since the doc said it's normal? Could this become a serious issue down the line? Is it one of those things that just come and go, or might it stick around for life? She's only 35, and we have no family history of heart problems, so what's up with this? What should we do to make sure her heart stays healthy?

1. The doctor's assessment that the ischemia shown on the ECG is not serious and normal is reassuring. Ecosprin (Aspirin) is commonly prescribed to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. It is important to follow the doctor's advice and continue taking the medication as prescribed. 2. As per the current evaluation and prescription of ecosprin, the likelihood of serious issues later should be reduced. However, it is essential to follow up with regular check-ups and adhere to any further recommendations from the doctor. 3. Ischemia can be a temporary or chronic condition depending on the underlying cause. In this case, since the echo was normal and the doctor reassured that everything is okay, it may not necessarily be a lifetime disease. However, ongoing monitoring and lifestyle modifications may be necessary. 4. The presence of ischemia at the age of 35 without a family history of cardiac issues raises the importance of evaluating other risk factors such as smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity, and physical inactivity. These factors can contribute to the development of heart conditions at a younger age. 5. Since there is no known cardiac history in the family, it is crucial to focus on lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, avoiding smoking, managing stress, and attending follow-up appointments with the doctor for monitoring. 6. Precautions that can be taken include following a heart-healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, engaging in regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy weight, managing stress levels, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption,
