I'm a bit concerned about some symptoms I've been experiencing. My heart sometimes feels like it's pounding even when I'm just standing. There are times when I can feel my radial artery and it seems like my heartbeat pauses and then starts again. I had an ECG done earlier, and it showed something like an incomplete RBBB with ST and T changes. I even occasionally feel a pulse in my back. Could this be something serious? Should I be worried about these results?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to an irregular heartbeat. Based on your description and ECG findings of incomplete right bundle branch block (RBBB) with ST and T changes, you may benefit from a medication called Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) to help regulate your heart rate and rhythm. The usual starting dose for Metoprolol is 25-50mg twice daily, but the dosage may vary depending on your specific condition and response to the medication. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been having this mild, intermittent pain in the middle of my left palm, just at the bottom part. It was odd because it would last only about 30 seconds before disappearing, and then it would come back again after a few minutes. It didn't spread anywhere else and was just in that one spot. This happened last night, but by this morning, the pain was gone. I'm puzzled about what could've caused this. Could it be something related to a heart issue?
"Based on your description, the intermittent pain in your left palm does not seem to be directly related to a heart problem. This type of localized, mild, intermittent pain is more likely to be musculoskeletal in nature. It could be due to overuse of the hand, a minor injury, or even a nerve issue. To alleviate any discomfort, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed. If the pain persists or worsens, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation."

I'm really concerned about this ongoing chest pain I've been experiencing along with pain in my left arm. It's been happening quite a lot over the past eight months. I'm trying to figure out what's really going on. Any ideas what could be causing this?
This could be a sign of a heart condition, specifically angina or a heart attack. It is important to seek immediate medical attention. In the meantime, you can take aspirin (e.g. Bayer Aspirin) 325mg to help reduce the risk of blood clot formation.
