I've been noticing this fluttering feeling under my left breast and I'm not sure if it's my heart or something with my stomach. On top of that, I keep feeling hot and cold at the same time, and my feet are freezing, even with socks on. I struggle with bad anxiety and panic attacks, plus I'm bipolar, and I've been a hypochondriac since I was little. I'm constantly worried about having a heart attack. What could be going on?

View allI'm really worried because her entire body is getting swollen and the doctor mentioned something about heart enlargement with fluid buildup. She seems to only stay healthy and not get swollen if she consistently takes her medication and injections to remove the fluid. What's this condition called, how serious is it, and what can be done to help her live a healthier, longer life? I'd really appreciate any advice.
It sounds like your loved one is experiencing symptoms of congestive heart failure, which is a serious condition where the heart is unable to pump blood effectively, leading to fluid buildup in the body. To manage this condition and improve her health and longevity, she will need to take medications such as Furosemide (Lasix) to help remove excess fluid from the body. Additionally, medications like Lisinopril (Zestril) or Carvedilol (Coreg) may be prescribed to help the heart function better and reduce symptoms. It is important for her to follow a low-sodium diet, monitor her fluid intake, and regularly follow up with her healthcare provider for proper management of her condition.

I was recently told by my general physician to start a 10-day course of Telma 40 mg because my blood pressure was quite high at 170110. I've been checking my BP in the evenings for the next few days, and it's usually between 100150 and 115155. After taking the medication for six days, my BP has come down to around 13090, and for the last couple of days, it's stabilized around 12080 in the evening. I've also cut back on salty and oily foods and started walking about 4 to 5 km, plus doing 20 minutes of Pranayam. I'm a bit concerned and curious about what else I can do. I have a BMI of 26.5. Any advice?

I'm a bit concerned about my ECG results. It mentioned "Sinus rhythm and ST Elevation probable normal early repolarization pattern." Can you help me understand what this means? Should I be worried about it?
A sinus rhythm on an ECG indicates that the heart is beating normally. ST elevation with probable normal early repolarization pattern can be a normal variant in some individuals, especially young, healthy individuals. However, it can also be seen in conditions like pericarditis or myocardial infarction. Since I don't have the complete picture of your health and medical history, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation.
