Question

I've been having some mild pain in the mid and left upper chest when I breathe heavily, and it changes depending on how I'm sitting. It seems to happen when I switch from inhaling to exhaling. I've had an ECG and Chest X-ray, and both came back normal. Could this be something to worry about?

Question

Is heart disease more common in people with diabetes?

Question

I'm really puzzled right now. My EKG keeps coming back abnormal, but the cardiologist didnt mention any problems before. I've started having palpitations, and there's been a lot of stress in my life lately. I decided to get a second opinion from a different cardiologist, but I'm confused. My EKG shows an incomplete right bundle branch block and a left anterior fascicular block. What does that even mean? My blood work is fine, my blood pressure is always excellent, and I dont have high cholesterol. Can you help me understand this?

Question

I'm a bit worried because I've been experiencing palpitations and when I took an ECG, it showed sinus tachycardia. My 2D echo test came back normal, so my doctor prescribed Betacap TR 20mg. After a week of taking it, the follow-up ECG was normal. Can you explain what sinus tachycardia is? Should I be concerned about any heart-related issues? I've also been dealing with anxiety for the past six months. I've attached my ECGs. Can you take a look and let me know what's going on? I'm really worried about my health.
