View allI'm experiencing this weird throbbing sensation in my chest and head, and I'm also feeling it in my legs. I had some tests done like ECG, echo, and they all came back normal. What could be causing this, and how can I address it?
Based on your symptoms and normal heart reports, it is possible that you are experiencing migraines with associated symptoms in your legs. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can take acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the throbbing feeling in your head and chest. For the pulsation feeling in your legs, you can try ibuprofen (Advil) to reduce inflammation and discomfort. Make sure to stay hydrated, get enough rest, and manage stress levels. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit concerned because after I did some moderate exercise, like walking uphill and climbing steps, my heart rate hit about 151 BPM. Now, it's been two hours, and its still around 113 BPM. I used my pocket ECG device, Sanketlife 2.0, to check, and it says I have Sinus Tachycardia. Should I be worried about this? How long will it typically take for my heart rhythm to return to a normal sinus rhythm?
Sinus tachycardia after exercise is common, but it usually returns to a normal resting rate (typically 60-100 BPM) within a few minutes to an hour after stopping the activity. If your HR remains elevated for an extended period or if you experience other symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or palpitations, it is important to seek medical evaluation promptly.

Is it a big deal that my TMT showed significant ST depression of 0.1mm in leads V4-V6 at peak exercise but didn't persist in recovery? The test said mildly positive for RMI, and I reached my target heart rate. I did Bruce stage 3 for about 8.09 minutes. My blood pressure is normal resting at 12080 and after exercise, it was 14080. I'm not diabetic. My METs were 10.2. Should I be worried about this? Could it be treated at this stage? Do I need to go for an angiography, and if I do, how soon should it be done?
