I've been having this weird pain, like in my heart and behind it, and it's been slowly moving to my shoulder. Now my mouth is super dry and I'm even feeling some pain near the top part of my left arm, right above my heart. What could this mean? Should I be worried about these symptoms?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart attack. It is important to seek immediate medical attention. In the meantime, you can take a tablet of aspirin (325mg) to help thin the blood and reduce the risk of further complications. Call emergency services or go to the nearest hospital as soon as possible for proper evaluation and treatment.

View allMy aunt has a heart problem and doctors recommended a heart valve replacement, including Dr Anil Bhan last year. We couldn't afford it then, but now she's admitted at SKIMS Hospital in Srinagar and her condition is serious. She has young daughters, so we really need to figure this out. Can you tell me the approximate cost for the valve replacement surgery, including hospital stay and medicines? We need to arrange funds quickly to save her life.
Heart has 4 valves in all . I would need to see a 2 D Echo and then decide what surgery and then predict appropriate cost

I got over covid a couple of weeks ago, but my heart rate has been up since then. I did an ECG and an Echo test. The Echo came back normal, but the ECG mentioned something about Early Repolarization. Is this something I should be worried about? My heart rate was 120 during covid, and its now down to 100. What should I do?
Early Repolarization on an ECG is a common finding and is usually considered a benign condition, especially in young and healthy individuals. Since your Echo report is normal and your heart rate has decreased from 120 to 100, it is a positive sign. However, it is important to continue monitoring your symptoms and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation if needed. In the meantime, you can focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle and regular exercise routine to support your heart health.
