I'm having this tender chest pain right in the middle of my chest, and it's getting me worried. I did an ECG, and everything seemed fine. My TMT test was negative too, which was a relief at first. But now, I'm sometimes feeling short of breath and there's a pain in my left hand. I even had a CT Coronary Angiography last year that showed normal results. What could be going on? Could you help me figure this out?

Question

I've been noticing something a bit unsettling recently, like my heart seems to be beating really hard, especially when I'm just lying down or relaxing. My resting heart rate is around 94bpm, which seems a bit high to me? Also, I can feel this strong pulse over my suprasternal notch and some weird tingling vibrations on the right side of my sternum near the carotid. Its almost like a sensation of anxiety, but I dont feel anxious at all. Could you give me some insight into what might be going on?

Question

I'm feeling really anxious because I've been having some breathlessness and gastric issues. I had an ECG done and it showed sinus tachycardia along with a small inferior wave. The report mentioned something about a borderline ECG and that an infarct can't be excluded. The doctor said the ECG's normal and there's nothing to worry about if the acidity improves. But I'm still a bit concerned. Should I be worried about the sinus tachycardia or the possibility of an infarct? Are there any other tests I should consider?

Question

I'm really worried about what happened to me a few days ago. My heart started racing, and it felt like there was some relief when I passed gas, but the fast heartbeat didn't totally go away. I ended up in the hospital and they had to give me shock treatment for my heart rate. That helped, but my blood pressure is still pretty high at 170120, even though it was normal just a week earlier. The doctor prescribed Ixarola 20 mg and cordarone tablets for 15 days. Can someone help me understand what caused this sudden change? I'm also looking for advice on any lifestyle changes or diet adjustments I should make to get my blood pressure down. Any suggestions?
