I'm really worried about my mom. She had chest pain a week ago and her ECG showed T wave inversion in V4, V5, and V6. The echo also showed rwma. We started her on clopidogrel and nicorandil. Today, both the ECG and echo came back normal. What should we do next?

Since the recent ECG and echo results are normal, it is a positive sign. However, considering the previous findings, it is important to continue monitoring her closely. I would recommend continuing with Clopidogrel to prevent blood clots and Nicorandil to help with chest pain. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management should be followed. Regular follow-up visits with her cardiologist are also important to ensure her heart health is maintained.

I'm really worried about my mom. Her heartbeat's been acting up and she's feeling a heavy sensation around her chest. About a month ago, her hemoglobin was really low at 6, and the doctor suggested 7 cycles of iron injections. She's already done five of those. The last four times, it took about 2 to 2.5 hours to finish each cycle, but the nurse did the fifth round in just an hour. Also, they usually fixed the cannula on the back of her hand, but during this last session, they put it on her wrist and told her to hold it. Do you think these changes could be why she's feeling chest heaviness and her heartbeat's speeding up? Can the quick iron injection cause these symptoms?

I've been experiencing some really strange sensations around my heart. It feels heavy, like my heart is beating too hard or could stop at any moment. Sometimes I even feel like an electric shock goes through my body. I've had an echo and TMT test, and both came back normal. The doctors say my heart is perfect and healthy, but I can't shake the feeling that I might have a cardiac arrest or heart attack at any time. I'm 18 years old and honestly, it's kind of freaking me out. Can you give me some advice or insights on what might be going on?
