I'm feeling this strange pulsating sensation in my left ribs that goes down my armpit, and I'm having some chest pain as well. It's pretty unsettling, and on top of that, my left hand and leg keep sweating. This mostly happens at night, and I notice my heart is beating faster during these episodes. Any ideas on what might be causing this?

Question

I'm a bit concerned because I recently had an ECG and it turned out normal, but my blood pressure is at 14090. I'm 25 years old and weigh 96 kgs. Does this mean I have high blood pressure, and what can I do to lower it?

Question

I'm really worried about my brother. He had COVID-19 a few months back, and he's still dealing with some tough symptoms like a racing heart rate, tremors, tinnitus, and fatigue. Hes only 30 and was super healthy and fit before all this. His echo was normal a while ago, but the cardiologist did mention arrhythmia back then. Lately, he's been feeling chest pain just from walking or climbing stairs, and his heart rate shoots up to 150-180. It's affecting his daily life a lot post-COVID. We got an NT Pro BNP test done, and it came back at 160. Could this be an early sign of heart failure? Should we look into more tests or anything else?

Question

My mom was diagnosed with chest pain on December 7, 2018. She's in the hospital, and the doctor did an angiography and is suggesting a bypass. I'm really worried and just want to know if the bypass is absolutely necessary and how long we can safely delay it. She's had blood pressure for about 10 years and diabetes for the last 4 years. Could you please advise?
