Question

I'm dealing with depression and recently had some heart tests done - my TMT came back negative, and both my ECG and echo were normal. However, my doctor prescribed me macsart 40 for blood pressure. I'm confused and a bit worried. Why would they prescribe BP medicine if my tests are normal? Any advice would be appreciated.

Question

I'm a bit concerned because my ECG showed some middling left axis deviation and my cholesterol levels aren't great either. On top of that, I've been having this back pain that seems to radiate to my hand. Could these issues be related somehow? Should I be worried about any underlying health problems connecting these symptoms? Any advice on what steps I should take next?

Question

I've been experiencing this weird irregular and thumping heartbeat but there's no chest pain. It's just this uncomfortable feeling in my chest, especially when I drink water or eat. It makes it hard to take a deep breath. I went to the doctor and they suggested an ECG, which came out normal. It went away for a couple of days but now it's back again. What could be causing this?
