I'm a bit confused and worried about my recent blood pressure readings and echo results. Usually, my BP is around 9070, but recently it's been up to 11090 or 11085, and then the cardiologist recorded it as 13090. My echocardiography showed a trace of AR and grade I LV diastolic dysfunction, yet the doctor said everything looked normal. Is it possible that this grade I LV diastolic dysfunction happened just because of my elevated BP at the time, and could it potentially go back to normal by my next echo? I've never really had high BP before, and now it's sometimes at 10070 or even back to 9070 mostly. Just trying to make sense of all this.

View allI'm really worried about my heart. I've been having heart palpitations for the past six months, and it's happened six times already. Just a few days ago, I woke up with my heart racing at 159 BPM. I went for an ECG, and the report said Sinus tachycardia with a heart rate of 139. My cardiologist said my ECHO 2d test was normal and prescribed me Cardarone 100mg and Petril Beta 10 for a month. But just two days ago, it happened again - I woke up with a rapid heartbeat of 125 BPM. I went for another ECG, and that one was normal, too. I even did a thyroid profile test, and it came back normal. When I'm trying to sleep, I can hear my heart pounding so loudly, and if I lie on my chest, it feels even worse. It's really uncomfortable. What should I do now? Should I stay on the medicine, or should I go in for more tests?
In your case, since you have already consulted a cardiologist and undergone tests like ECG and 2D ECHO which came out normal, the medications prescribed to you are appropriate for managing your symptoms. You should continue taking TAB Cardarone 100mg and Petril Bata 10 as prescribed by your doctor. TAB Cardarone helps in controlling irregular heartbeats, while Petril Bata helps in reducing anxiety which can sometimes exacerbate palpitations. If you are still experiencing discomfort and palpitations, you may consider discussing with your cardiologist about adjusting the dosage of the medications or exploring other treatment options. Additionally, you may benefit from lifestyle modifications such as reducing stress, avoiding stimulants like caffeine, and maintaining a healthy sleep routine to help manage your symptoms. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist regularly to monitor your condition and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

I've been having this pricking pain in my chest that isn't super intense, but it crops up when I'm on the treadmill or climbing stairs. I'm in my mid-20s and last week I saw a doctor about some chest discomfort. They thought it was acid reflux. What could be causing this? I also felt some pressure in my neck and shoulders that went away after a few minutes. Any ideas on what's going on? Should I be worried?
