My sister's been dealing with some pain on her left side, like under her armpit and shoulder, for a month. She had an ECG done back then, and it seemed normal. But now, she just got another ECG and it said "borderline abnormal." Should we think about doing another one or maybe see a cardiologist? What do you suggest?

I'm really worried because last year I had strong issues with acidity, anxiety, and headaches. I even got an ECG in June 2018, and everything was normal back then. But since January 2019, I've been experiencing these sudden strong heartbeats that feel like a thump in my chest, even when Im just walking around. It's really upsetting and makes me anxious for days, thinking about why it's happening. Lately, I cant sleep at night and sometimes feel really empty and lacking enthusiasm. I saw a cardiologist who prescribed me Inderal, but Im just trying to understand what could be causing all this. Any idea what's going on with me?

Inderal can help control your physical symptoms, and addressing underlying anxiety through therapy, relaxation techniques, and lifestyle changes should improve your overall well-being. If youre feeling stuck, consider discussing these issues further with your doctor or a mental health professional.

I've been thinking about getting an infrared heating panel, but I'm worried it might mess with my pacemaker because of the electromagnetic field. The company says it actually gives off less electromagnetic static than the sun, so it shouldn't be a problem. Should I be concerned about this?

Infrared heating panels typically emit low levels of electromagnetic fields, which are unlikely to interfere with a pacemaker. However, it is always best to consult with your cardiologist or healthcare provider for personalized advice. If you experience any unusual symptoms or concerns regarding your pacemaker while using the infrared heating panel, please seek medical attention promptly.
