Question

I'm experiencing some mild pain in my upper chest on both sides and also in my upper back, and sometimes even in the lower part of my chest. I went to the doctor yesterday, and he did an ECG, which came back normal. My oxygen level is 97, but I'm still feeling like I need to take a deep breath every 10 minutes or so, and Im not sure why. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

Question

Is sleeping good for high blood pressure?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about a TMT test I did a couple of days ago. The results came back as a normal stress test, but while reaching a 100 heart rate during the test, I experienced some mild dizziness that lasted for about 2 minutes. It was manageable and got better after I rested. I could walk and move around fine afterward, but I had a mild headache for the rest of the day. The next day, I felt completely okay, and there were no other symptoms. Should I be worried about this, or is it normal for TMT results? Please check my report and advise.

Question

Lately, Ive been noticing that every time I stand up or go for a walk, my heart starts racing to around 130bpm, and it doesnt calm down until I sit or lie down. My chest hurts, and my legs feel weak and shaky during these times too. I did have an iron deficiency last year, but it never made me feel like this, and even though it's still slightly low, my recent results show it's getting better. Ive had an ECG done, and that seemed fine, so I'm wondering if I should be seeing a cardiologist. Could this be something serious?
