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 dealing with depression and recently had some heart tests done - my TMT came back negative, and both my ECG and echo were normal. However, my doctor prescribed me macsart 40 for blood pressure. I'm confused and a bit worried. Why would they prescribe BP medicine if my tests are normal? Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm looking at my echo report, and it mentions Grade 1 LVDD. I'm a bit worried. Is this something I should be concerned about? I've attached the echo file so you can take a look. Could you help me understand what this means?

Grade 1 LVDD (Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction) is a mild form of diastolic dysfunction where the left ventricle of the heart has slightly impaired relaxation. It is usually not considered a serious condition on its own, but it can progress to more severe forms if left untreated. Treatment usually involves managing underlying conditions such as high blood pressure or coronary artery disease. Without seeing the echo report, I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

I'm really worried about this constant headache I have, mostly because my blood pressure and sugar are both on the high side. I've done a CT scan and an MRI, but both came back normal. Even my neurologist confirmed everything looks fine. Despite all that, I'm still feeling this awful sense of suffocation. There's no history of any heart problems in my family or anything like that. Do you think I should see a cardiologist about the suffocation issue?

In this case, since suffocation is still an issue, it would be advisable to consult with a cardiologist to rule out any cardiac-related causes. The cardiologist may recommend medications such as Amlodipine (5mg) for high blood pressure and Metformin (500mg) for diabetes to help manage your conditions and alleviate symptoms. It's important to follow up with the cardiologist for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.
