Question

I've been feeling some pressure and tightness in my chest after eating, and my stomach gets really bloated. Sometimes it even feels like I'm having an anxiety attack. I'm not sure what's going on. Could there be a link between these symptoms, and what might be causing this?

Question

I'm feeling a bit worried after our recent echocardiography showed mild pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and moderate tricuspid regurgitation. Can this one test really confirm I have PAH, or should I be looking into more testing? And what should I expect in terms of life expectancy with mild PAH? Is there any chance that this condition can be cured?

Question

I'm feeling really overwhelmed and unsure what's going on with my health. Whenever I do even a little bit of work, I start feeling pain all over my body and feel really weak. My heart beats really fast, like once it was 165 bpm and then it came down to 115 bpm after 10 minutes. I've been told I have high blood pressure and cholesterol, but my ECG, TMT, and echo tests all came back normal. The ECG did show some changes in areas called Avf, but they've been like that for 9 years. On top of that, I've been dealing with severe anxiety and OCD for about 12 years now. I'm really worried if this might be a heart problem or if it's all just because of my anxiety. Every time I try to do any work, the weakness and palpitations hit me, along with a full body ache. I really need some advice on what's happening.
