I'm 22 years old and I smoke regularly. Lately, I've been experiencing a tight feeling and pain in my chest and back over the past few days. I'm not sure if it's related to my heart, lungs, or maybe something gastric? It gets worse whenever I lift something heavy or if I try to get up quickly from bed. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

I'm trying to understand what it means when an ECG shows a probable normal early repolarization pattern with ST elevation. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it usually considered benign?

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure readings over the past two days. They've been around 10476, 11076, 10583, and 10366. This started after I switched my medication from Metoprolol 50 mg to Tazloc CT 406.25 about 10 days ago. Are these readings considered low? Could you please tell me what would be considered low blood pressure?

The blood pressure readings you have provided are within the normal range. Low blood pressure is typically considered to be a systolic pressure less than 90 mmHg and a diastolic pressure less than 60 mmHg. Since your readings are consistently above these values, your blood pressure is not considered low. Regarding the medication change from metoprolol to tazloc CT-406.25, it seems to be working well for you as your blood pressure readings are within the normal range. Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly and consult your doctor if you have any concerns

I've been feeling this chest pain every day, and it's making me really uncomfortable. My ECG, echo, and TMT all came back normal, so Im a bit puzzled and worried. Why isn't anything showing up in the tests even though I'm still dealing with these symptoms? What could be going on with my chest?

Given that your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, and you continue to experience daily chest pain and discomfort, it's likely that your symptoms might not be heart-related. Other possible causes could include musculoskeletal issues like costochondritis or muscle strain, gastrointestinal problems such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or anxiety-related symptoms. It would be beneficial to consult with a gastroenterologist to rule out any digestive issues and consider a musculoskeletal evaluation for potential muscular causes. Additionally, managing any underlying anxiety through therapy or relaxation techniques may help alleviate your symptoms. Please discuss these possibilities with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate treatment plan.
