I've been having these short period chest pains for about 6 months now, and honestly, it's freaking me out a bit. I got my ECG and Doppler tests done, and they came back normal. I'm also taking esoz d every morning for gastric issues. But, the chest pains still show up sometimes, and I can't help but worry about them being signs of a heart attack. What do you think is going on here? Any guidance would really help.

I'm a bit concerned because I've been feeling some palpitations, breathlessness, and dizziness, even without pushing myself too hard physically. I had an echocardiogram, and it turns out I have mitral valve prolapse with just mild mitral regurgitation. Is it usual to have these symptoms with only mild regurgitation? Also, it's been tough not being active, and I've dropped to an underweight level. To top it off, I've been experiencing erectile dysfunction. Could this be linked to the mitral valve prolapse?

My creatinine level is at 1.3, which I understand is borderline. I'm considering going for coronary angiography but I'm a bit worried. Is it safe to proceed, and if so, what precautions should I be aware of?

If creatinine is at the borderline level of 1.3, it is important to assess the overall kidney function before proceeding with coronary angiography. Precautions that should be taken include ensuring adequate hydration before and after the procedure, monitoring kidney function closely, and considering the use of contrast media with lower nephrotoxicity. Additionally, medications such as N-acetylcysteine and sodium bicarbonate may be considered to help protect the kidneys during the procedure.

I've been really anxious since hearing about a friend's sudden heart attack while they were sleeping. That same night, I felt my heart racing, and I couldn't sleep because I was so worried it might happen to me too. The day after, I went to the doctor, got an ECG and a blood test, and was told everything looked fine. But ever since, I haven't been able to get good sleep, and I'm really scared. My heart has been feeling weird, like a poking pain, and my shoulder hurts on and off too. I'm freaked outdo you think I should be worried about something serious?

It is understandable to feel anxious after hearing about someone's sudden death from a heart attack. However, based on your description and the tests done by your doctor, it seems that there is no immediate concern regarding your heart health. The ECG and blood tests did not show any problems, which is a good sign. The symptoms you are experiencing, such as rapid heartbeats, fear, difficulty sleeping, heart pain, and shoulder pain that comes and goes, could be related to anxiety and stress. It is common for anxiety to manifest physically, including chest discomfort and shoulder pain. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try relaxation techniques, deep breathing exercises, and mindfulness practices. In some cases, your doctor may prescribe medications such as **anxiolytics** to help manage your anxiety symptoms. Additionally, engaging in regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy diet, and getting enough sleep can also contribute to your overall well-being. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
