I'm a bit worried after seeing the results of my 2D ECHO. It mentions "diastolic dysfunction present EA," and I'm not quite sure what that means. Could you explain it to me?

Diastolic dysfunction means that the heart is not able to relax and fill properly during the resting phase of the cardiac cycle. This can lead to problems with the heart's ability to pump blood efficiently. In this case, you may be prescribed medications like ACE inhibitors (e.g. Enalapril) or beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) to help improve heart function. The dosage will depend on your specific condition and needs.

I've been dealing with chest pain for the past six months, and it's been really worrying me. I've already had ECGs done five times, an echocardiogram, blood tests, and even an endoscopy, but they all came back normal. My physical activity seems fine, but the pain is there all day. I'm just trying to figure out what might be going ondo you have any thoughts or advice on what I should do next?

It's good that you have already undergone several tests to investigate the cause of your chest pain. Since your ECG, echocardiogram, blood tests, and endoscopy all came back normal, it's less likely to be related to the heart or gastrointestinal issues. Considering your symptoms have persisted for 6 months, it's important to explore other possible causes such as musculoskeletal issues or anxiety-related chest pain. I recommend trying a medication like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques or deep breathing exercises may help if anxiety is a contributing factor to your chest pain. If the pain continues, further evaluation by a specialist may be needed.

I'm having this weird feeling of short breath and some dizziness, especially when I try to sleep. It's been happening just recently, and it's getting kinda uncomfortable. I had a full body check-up not too long ago, including heart tests like an ECG, echo, diabetes check, and a TMT, and they were all normal. My weights around 110 kg, and my blood pressure is 14090. I'm really puzzled about what could be causing this mild shortness of breath. Any ideas?

I've been experiencing this cramp on the right side of my chest whenever I yawn. Its really painful for a bit, almost unbearable, but then it fades away. I'm trying to figure out what might be causing it and how I can prevent it. Also, is there anything I can do to lessen the pain quickly when it hits?

It sounds like you may be experiencing muscle spasms or tension in the chest area, possibly due to deep or frequent yawning. To ease the pain quickly, try gently stretching or massaging the area. If it continues or worsens, it's best to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues.
