I've been having these sudden chills or a cold feeling in my chest while I'm asleep, and it's been happening on and off, like a couple of times a week for the last few months. I already saw a cardiologist and did some tests to make sure it's not heart disease because I'm a 35-year-old guy who was recently told I have hypertension. Can someone help me figure out what might be causing this?

View allI'm experiencing a fast heartbeat and I'm worried if it could be a case of SVT. I had an echocardiogram and it came back normal. Does that mean my heart is fine or should I be concerned about something else?
It is good that your echo is normal. Fast heart beat can be due to various reasons, including SVT. To help control your heart rate, you can take medication like Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) at a dosage of 25-100mg twice daily. However, it is important to consult with a cardiologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I'm experiencing chest pain and back pain along with breathing problems. My doctor said it might be due to gas issues, but I'm still feeling tightness in my chest and having trouble breathing. Could it be something else, or should I just wait it out a bit longer?

I'm really concerned about what my cardiologist told me regarding aortic valve leakage. Can you explain what might be causing this condition? And he mentioned that the valve might need to be changed in the future. How serious is this situation, and what should I expect going forward?
The main reason for aortic valve leakage is usually due to a condition called aortic valve regurgitation, where the valve does not close properly and allows blood to leak back into the heart. This can be caused by conditions such as rheumatic fever, infective endocarditis, or congenital heart defects. In some cases, age-related changes or wear and tear on the valve can also lead to leakage. If the leakage becomes severe and starts to affect the heart's function, the cardiologist may recommend aortic valve replacement surgery.
