I'm curious about some symptoms I've been experiencing. A few months back, I did an echo report and a TMT, which came back negative. Lately, though, I've been having this pressure and a burning sensation in my chest, plus a lot of burping. I'm a bit worriedis this something heart-related? Should I consider getting more tests done to check my heart health? Would love to hear your thoughts.

based on your symptoms of pressure in chest, burping, burning sensation, and pain in chest, it is important to further evaluate your heart health. In addition to the echo report and negative TMT, I would recommend a few more tests for a comprehensive heart evaluation. 1. **ECG (Electrocardiogram)**: To assess the electrical activity of your heart. 2. **Holter Monitor**: To monitor your heart's activity over a period of time. 3. **Cardiac CT Scan or MRI**: To get detailed images of your heart's structure and function. 4. **Blood tests**: Such as lipid profile and cardiac enzymes to check for any abnormalities. Based on the results of these tests, further treatment or management can be determined.

Had open heart surgery with a bental procedure back in August 2014 and now dealing with seroma pinna swelling and fluid buildup in my outer ear. The doctor suggested either needle drainage or surgery, but I'm on daily warfarin 10mg. Is it safe to go ahead with either option given the blood thinners?

yes, can use blood thinner.

I'm worried because my heart rate is always above 90, even when I'm just relaxing. I've had Eclampsia with a high heart rate and blood pressure before, and my doctor prescribed Ivabrad 5 mg. They mentioned I could stop taking it after a month. I've got a month's supply left, and I'm wondering if I can keep taking Ivabrad to help with my heart health. Is that a good idea?

Ivabradine 5 mg is a medication commonly used to lower heart rate in certain heart conditions. Since you were prescribed this medication for a specific reason and advised to stop after a month, it is important to follow your healthcare provider's instructions. If you have remaining tablets and are concerned about your heart health, you can continue taking ivabradine as prescribed until you finish the course. However, it is recommended to consult with your doctor before starting or stopping any medication regimen.
