I've done all the tests like an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal, but I've been having this pain on my left side of the chest for a month now. I'm worried because it feels like it might be leading up to a heart attack. Could it still be something heart-related even if the tests were okay?

Since your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, your chest pain may not be related to a heart attack. However, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your chest pain. You can try taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for the chest pain. If the pain persists or worsens, you may consider taking an antacid like omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once a day to see if it helps with the pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and stress management may also be beneficial.

I'm feeling pretty anxious because I've had this heavy feeling in my chest since yesterday. I went for an ECG and it showed Tall T waves. Is this something I should be really worried about? I'm attaching my ECGs, and the second one was done an hour after the first. Could this possibly be hyperkalemia because I had a couple of coconut waters and eggs? Would appreciate any clarity on this.

Tall T waves in an ECG can be a sign of hyperkalemia, which is high potassium levels in the blood. It can be life-threatening if not treated promptly. To lower your potassium levels, you can take medications like Kayexalate to help remove excess potassium from your body. The usual dosage is 15-60 grams orally 1-4 times a day. Additionally, you should avoid high potassium foods like coconut water and bananas. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been feeling this heavy sensation in my head for the past few days, and while my blood pressure was normal before, recently it's been at 126 over 80. I'm curious, does the heavy feeling in my head mean my blood pressure is actually shooting up past 140 over 90 during those times? When I visited my doctor, my pressure was 126 over 80 and I didn't have that heavy feeling at that moment.

The feeling of heaviness in your head may not necessarily correlate with your blood pressure being above 14090. It is possible to experience symptoms like a heavy head even with a blood pressure reading of 12680. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a medication like Acetaminophen 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for headache relief. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated, practice relaxation techniques, and get an adequate amount of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

I'm really worried about my mother-in-law. She's 65 and her blood pressure's at 18290. She's had a light headache and even vomited once. I'm wondering if these could be signs of a minor heart attack or if it's just the high blood pressure causing these issues. She's been taking Telma 20 for the high blood pressure and Vertigon D for vomiting. Could you help me understand what's going on?
