I've noticed when I'm lying down that I can really feel my heartbeat in my left chest and sometimes even in other parts of my body. I've already had an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal. My anxiety has been under control, but this is still happening. Could it be something else or is this just something normal?

can be due to benign causes such as heightened awareness of your heartbeat (palpitations) or muscle twitching. This can be exacerbated by anxiety. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to reduce the sensation of palpitations. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga can also be beneficial in managing these symptoms.

View allI'm feeling really confused about something. My ECG says I have LAD, but I'm not experiencing any symptoms, and both my echo and TMT came back normal. I haven't been diagnosed with LAH, BLBB, or LVH. So, why would I have LAD? I've attached my ECG if that helps. Can someone explain what's going on here?
Based on the information provided and the attached ECG, it appears that you have been diagnosed with Left Anterior Descending (LAD) artery involvement. In this case, it is important to focus on managing your cardiovascular health. I recommend starting treatment with Aspirin 75mg daily to prevent clot formation in the arteries. Additionally, you can take Atorvastatin 20mg daily to help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further artery blockage. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is essential to monitor your condition and adjust treatment as needed.

I keep waking up with chest pain in the morning. I've already had an ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-rays, and everything came back normal. I'm currently taking acidity tablets. Sometimes I even feel a pinning sensation in my chest. Do you have any advice on how I can make this pain go away?

I've had some tests done like ECG, 2D Echo, and a thyroid test, and they all came back normal. But still, my pulse rate sometimes jumps to like 120 or 140 and then goes back to normal after a bit. I tried beta blockers for about 4 months, but it didnt really help, so my doctor told me not to worry and said it's normal for me. I've stopped taking the meds now. Should I really not be concerned about these spikes in my pulse rate?
It sounds like you have been experiencing episodes of high pulse rate despite normal results on your ECG, 2D echo, and thyroid tests. Since beta blockers did not effectively control your pulse rate, you may benefit from a calcium channel blocker such as Amlodipine. The usual starting dose for Amlodipine is 5 mg once daily, which can be adjusted based on your response. It is important to monitor your pulse rate regularly and report any persistent high readings to your doctor.
