Question 1

I'm feeling a tickling sensation in my chest and what's kind of like fluttering, which makes me anxious and sad. It's also strange because I get this mild headache only at night. Any idea what might be going on?

Accepted Answer

To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter medication such as paracetamol for the headache. Additionally, you can consider using anti-anxiety medication such as lorazepam at a low dose to help with the feelings of anxiety and sadness. It is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication.

Question 2

I was lying down and felt some mild chest pain, so I went to the doctor. They did an ECG and echo, and everything seemed normal, but it showed something about a mild TR Pah and Tr jet at 2.8 with RVSP at 30rap. The doctor said it was fine. A year later, I had another echo, and this time it showed no TR, just PJV at 1.23 msec. I'm not really sure what that means and just want to confirm that there's no PH. The echo report says chamber size and function are normal, so should I be worried about anything?

Accepted Answer

The results of your echocardiogram show that there is no tricuspid regurgitation (TR) this time, and the pulmonary jet velocity (PJV) is 1.23 msec. This indicates that there is no significant backflow of blood through the tricuspid valve and the blood flow through the pulmonary valve is normal. The right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) of 30 mmHg is also within normal limits, indicating normal pressure in the right side of the heart. Overall, the echo results show normal chamber size and function of your heart. No further treatment is needed at this time based on these results.
