View allI'm feeling really lightheaded and having some chest discomfort. A couple of years ago, I did some tests like ECG, ECHO, and TMT, and everything was normal except there was a comment about systolic dysfunction in the echo. My blood pressure was also fine at that time. But now, when I checked my blood pressure because of the lightheadedness, it was 10661. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be worried about the systolic dysfunction part from before?
Feeling lightheaded and experiencing chest discomfort, especially with a history of systolic dysfunction noted in your echocardiogram, warrants immediate attention. Although your previous tests were normal, new or worsening symptoms should not be ignored. Your current blood pressure of 10661 mmHg is on the lower side, which may contribute to your lightheadedness. Given your symptoms and history, it is essential to seek medical evaluation promptly to rule out any potential cardiac issues or other causes. Please visit an emergency room or contact your healthcare provider as soon as possible for a thorough assessment and appropriate management.

I'm experiencing chest pain and back pain along with breathing problems. My doctor said it might be due to gas issues, but I'm still feeling tightness in my chest and having trouble breathing. Could it be something else, or should I just wait it out a bit longer?

I'm a bit concerned about my health after a routine check-up. I got my ECG report, and it mentioned a "normal ECG sinus rhythm" and something about an "RSR pattern in V1." Can you help me understand what that means? Should I be worried about this pattern?
The ECG report showing normal sinus rhythm with rsr' pattern in V1 indicates a normal heart rhythm with a possible sign of right bundle branch block. You don't need to worry about it.
