Why do most heart attacks occur in the morning?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Our body has Carcadian system and this rythm dips and raises throutout the day. This system sends out PA1-1 cells which blocks the blood clots from breaking down. Another reason is when we wake up, brain floods the heart with hormones which increases the load on the heart .

View allI'm really concerned about my mom. She's got diabetes and high BP, and her recent echocardiography test had some results that are making me anxious. Her exercise duration was 9.51 minutes, and her max heart rate hit 152 bpm, which is 88% of the target heart rate of 172 bpm. Her max BP was 16680 mmHg, and she reached a max workload of 11.14 METS. The stress test came back positive for RMI. The doctors are suggesting an angiography test. I'm really worried. Is everything okay, or should I be more concerned?
Based on the results of the stress test showing a positive for reversible myocardial ischemia (RMI) and the recommendation for an angiography test, it indicates that there may be reduced blood flow to the heart muscle during physical activity. This could be a sign of underlying coronary artery disease. To address this issue, your mother may need to undergo angiography to further evaluate the blood flow in her coronary arteries. Depending on the findings of the angiography, the doctors will be able to determine the best course of treatment, which may include medications such as aspirin, statins, and beta-blockers to manage her condition and reduce the risk of complications. It is important to follow the advice of the medical professionals and proceed with the recommended tests and treatments to ensure the best possible outcome for your mother's heart health.

I've been feeling this pinching kind of mild pain on the left side of my chest that lasts for like 46 seconds or so. At those moments, I can really feel my heart beating faster when I put my hand on my chest. I did talk to a cardiologist about it, and they recommended an ECG, which turned out normal. But I'm still really worried. Could these be warning signs, and should I consider getting more heart-related tests just to be on the safe side?
Given your symptoms of intermittent, mild, left-sided chest pain lasting 4-6 seconds, accompanied by an awareness of a rapid heartbeat, and a normal ECG result, your cardiologist may recommend further tests, such as a stress test, echocardiogram, or Holter monitoring, to rule out potential causes like arrhythmias, pericarditis, or cardiac anxiety, and provide reassurance, but in the meantime, pay attention to any triggers or patterns, and consider maintaining a symptom journal to discuss with your doctor.

I was lying down and felt some mild chest pain, so I went to the doctor. They did an ECG and echo, and everything seemed normal, but it showed something about a mild TR Pah and Tr jet at 2.8 with RVSP at 30rap. The doctor said it was fine. A year later, I had another echo, and this time it showed no TR, just PJV at 1.23 msec. I'm not really sure what that means and just want to confirm that there's no PH. The echo report says chamber size and function are normal, so should I be worried about anything?
The results of your echocardiogram show that there is no tricuspid regurgitation (TR) this time, and the pulmonary jet velocity (PJV) is 1.23 msec. This indicates that there is no significant backflow of blood through the tricuspid valve and the blood flow through the pulmonary valve is normal. The right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) of 30 mmHg is also within normal limits, indicating normal pressure in the right side of the heart. Overall, the echo results show normal chamber size and function of your heart. No further treatment is needed at this time based on these results.
