I'm trying to understand my echo report, which mentioned moderate systolic dysfunction. What does this mean exactly? I'm a bit concerned because the report is already six months old. Can you help me make sense of this?

Question

I'm trying to understand something from an ECG report I received. It says "ECG within normal limits, sinus rhythm, no ST T changes." What does all this actually mean? Is there anything here that I need to be concerned about or pay attention to? Could you please explain it to me?

Question

I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest and it's also in the inside part of my left shoulder, going to the back as well. It's weird because it's not the whole chest, just specific points. Sometimes the pain even jumps to my right side for a few seconds. I've been keeping an eye on my blood pressure and it's been 80120. Should I be worried about this or is it something that will pass on its own?

Question

I'm really curious and a bit concerned about something that's been happening to me lately. Every time I finish my lunch, it feels like my heart starts racing more than usual. It's really noticeable, and it only happens after I eat a meal. Just to give you a bit of context, I'm a 53-year-old woman, and I do have a history of thyroid problems. Could this be related, or is there another reason why my heart speeds up after eating?
