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 a 13-year-old boy with a hole in my heart, and my parents didn't go for the surgery. What kind of problems could this cause for me now and later in life? Will it get worse as I grow older?
A heart defect can cause breathlessness, fatigue, or infections later in life. Get an echocardiogram. If large, surgery may be needed before adulthood.

I'm really worried about my heart health. I had an echocardiogram about 7 months ago, and it showed a 60% ejection fraction with trace mitral regurgitation and aortic regurgitation. I've been asking my doctor for another echo for weeks, but he's not keen on it, saying the heart structure won't change that quickly. I'm experiencing what I think are classic heart failure symptoms thoughevery heartbeat feels weak and faint, like my heart's struggling to pump blood. When I stand up, I get short of breath, and my heart rate shoots up. Should I keep pushing for a repeat echo? Is it possible for my heart to get worse in less than a year?
ECHO is done atleast every 6-12 months.

I've been experiencing some chest pain for about a week now. It moves around a bitsometimes it's on the left side, sometimes the right, and occasionally I feel it in my back too. I'm really worried it might be something to do with my heart since I'm 31 and a bit on the heavier side. Should I be concerned about this?
Chest pain can have various causes, including heart-related issues. However, since your pain is on both sides of the chest and also on your back, it may not be directly related to the heart. It is important to rule out other potential causes such as muscle strain or gastrointestinal issues. You can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain. However, it is crucial to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.
