I've done a bunch of tests like the 2D echo, ECG, and TMT stress test, and everything came back normal. My cholesterol is at 158, BP is 12080, and both calcium and alkaline phosphatase are within limits. All the CBC, blood count, sugar, and urine tests went well, and the doctor said nothing's wrong with me. But I still feel chest pain and back pain, right opposite my heart and pain around my ribs. After dinner, I feel pretty uneasy, and my work hours are 5 pm to 3 am. When I try to sleep at night, I end up feeling stressed and uneasy. The 2D echo test showed my heart's compatibility is 64, and blood circulation is normal. I quit smoking about 8 months ago but still have tobacco twice a day, and I'm trying to quit. I'm also getting into exercise regularly. I'm wondering if this is all in my head because a colleague of ours passed away recently. Is there any chance I'm at risk for a heart attack here, and what precautions should I be taking?

-It sounds like your tests have ruled out major heart issues, and the chest and back pain could be related to stress or the tobacco use you're trying to quit. It's great that you're exercising regularlythis can help reduce stress and improve overall he

View allI'm just trying to understand what the next steps are for my treatment based on my recent test results. I'm a 62-year-old woman and my 2D Echo Report shows Mild LVH and Mild diastolic dysfunction, with an LVEF at rest of 50. Thankfully, there are no regional wall motion abnormalities, and my RV contractile function is adequate. The report also notes no pulmonary hypertension or pericardial effusion, and no intracardiac clot or vegetation. My chest X-ray mentions a mild unfolding of the aorta but no pluroparenchymal abnormality. Should I be worried about any of these findings, and what kind of treatment might be necessary?

I've been feeling a bit worried. I'm 14 and I've noticed my heart starts to race, like palpitations, especially after I've had a lot of sugar or after I've been really stressed out for a couple of days. Is this normal? Should I be concerned about this?
Heart palpitations in young individuals can sometimes be triggered by excessive sugar intake and stress. It is important to monitor your sugar consumption and practice stress management techniques. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker like Propranolol 10mg to help with the palpitations. However, if the palpitations persist or worsen, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I'm a bit confused about my blood pressure medication. My doctor measured my blood pressure at 149 over 90, using a digital BP machine, and prescribed me TelmaH. But that day, I'd walked to the clinic without resting, so maybe that's why my reading was so high. I've been on the meds for 15 days, but in the last 2 days, my blood pressure has been normal even without taking the medication. Is it safe for me to stop taking it, or should I continue the course just to be sure? What should I do?
It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding medication. In this case, since your blood pressure has been normal without taking the medication for the past 2 days, you can discuss with your doctor about possibly adjusting the dosage or frequency of Telma-H. It is also possible that your high reading at the clinic was influenced by walking without resting. However, it is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen.
