I'm 16 and recently had an electrocardiograph that showed I have incomplete RBBB. The doctors mentioned it might be related to my tonsils because they get inflamed a few times a year, and they're suggesting I get them removed. I tried finding more info about this link between tonsils and RBBB but didn't come across anything helpful. Could you explain how they're connected or if you've seen anything like this before?

View allI'm curious about what's happening with my heart. Sometimes my ECG shows these non-specific ST changes, and while my echo was normal, I'm still worried. I often feel chest discomfort and pains in my left arm. Is there something specific these ST changes could indicate, even though my ECG and echo seem alright? Could something be missed?
Non-specific ST changes on an ECG can be caused by various factors, including electrolyte imbalances, medications, anxiety, or even normal variation. Since your echocardiogram was normal, it is less likely to be related to a structural heart problem. However, given your symptoms of chest discomfort and left arm pains, it is important to continue monitoring and investigating further. To address your symptoms, you can try taking a medication like aspirin for chest discomfort (75-325mg once daily) and acetaminophen for pain relief in your left arm (500-1000mg every 4-6 hours as needed). Additionally, you may benefit from a medication like ranitidine for acid reflux if present (150mg twice daily). It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I've been having this discomfort in my left arm and shoulder that doesn't get worse when I exercise, and resting doesn't seem to help either. Plus, I've been experiencing sudden breathing difficulties along with sweating every couple of evenings, and it's really exhausting, but strangely, no chest pain like a heart attack. These symptoms were there about a year ago but felt less frequent. Now, it's been more than a month and it's happening more often. A year back, my ECG, ECHO, TMT, and Holter tests came back normal, along with normal TSH, lipid profile, vitamin D levels, etc. The doctor thinks it might be panic attacks, but why do I still have this persistent arm pain? If it was a heart issue, shouldn't there have been complications by now? What do you think I should do?
Persistent discomfort in your left arm and shoulder, along with symptoms like sudden breathing difficulties, sweating, and exhaustion, can be concerning. While it's reassuring that your ECG, ECHO, TMT, and Holter tests were normal, and your doctor suggested panic attacks, persistent and worsening symptoms warrant further evaluation. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider to reassess your condition and rule out other potential causes, such as musculoskeletal issues, nerve compression, or even conditions like GERD or anxiety disorders. Discuss your ongoing concerns with your doctor to ensure a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate management plan.
