I'm experiencing this chest heaviness and heavy breathing whenever I walk or do any small physical activities, and it's been going on for about three weeks now. I already went to my GP about two weeks ago and was on Azithromycin for three days, but it didnt really help. Yesterday, I started feeling some chest pain right in the center, and when I consulted a cardiologist online, they said it wasn't cardiac pain. But this morning after a little activity post-breakfast, I felt the same heaviness and then a dull pain in the center of my chest. It only lasts about 2 seconds and then disappears for a minute. The pain doesn't get worse when I breathe deeply either. Just wondering what's going on and what I should do next. Any thoughts?

I'm looking at my 2D echo report and trying to understand a couple of things. It mentions there's no regional wall motion abnormality and that my LV systolic function is good with a normal filling pattern. I'm relieved that there's no MR, AR, or precardial effusion, and no clots were found, but it says there's trivial TR and mild PAH. Could you help me understand what mild PAH means? From what you see in my report, how should I feel about these results overall?

That not a matter of concern just consume healthy diet and maintain regular physical activity follow your doctors advice

What does high blood pressure headache feel like?

According to the research available, most studies show that headache is not a symptom of high blood pressure unless a person is in hypertensive crisis. Hypertensive crisis is a medical emergency where blood pressure is more than 180/120 mm Hg with other symptoms such as nose bleed, chest pain and breathlessness. During this episode, headache can occur which is usually on both sides, pulsating type and increases with activity.
