I've been having this chest pain for a few days now and sometimes when I'm trying to sleep, I get these heart palpitations and feel short of breath. It honestly feels like I'm going to die, and it's making it hard for me to get any sleep. I went to a general physician recently and explained everything. The doctor just checked my pulse and listened to my heart with a stethoscope and said theres nothing to worry about. But can I actually trust that? I keep feeling like something's wrong with my heart, but the doctor didnt suggest any tests. Should I get some tests to check my heart health, or am I overthinking this? What would you advise?

it seems like there may not be an immediate cause for concern regarding heart health. However, if your symptoms persist, worsen, or cause you significant distress, its perfectly reasonable to ask for further testing to rule out heart conditions and also explore the possibility of anxiety-related symptoms. If you're still unsure or worried, I recommend having a follow-up consultation with your doctor or seeking a cardiology specialist for more specific tests, such as an ECG or echocardiogram.

I'm dealing with both mitral and aortic valve stenosis, plus some leakage, and I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if that's possible. Is there anything that can help me steer clear of needing valve replacement surgery?

Mitral valve stenosis and aortic valve leakage can be managed with medication to help control symptoms and slow down the progression of the condition. For mitral valve stenosis, you can take medications such as diuretics to reduce fluid buildup, beta-blockers to control heart rate, and blood thinners to prevent blood clots. For aortic valve leakage, medications like ACE inhibitors or ARBs can help reduce strain on the heart and improve symptoms. It is important to regularly monitor your condition with your healthcare provider and follow their recommendations for medication dosage and frequency.

I'm 32 years old and recently had an ECG done for my ICL eye surgery. It's showing a heart rate between 120 to 127. I havent had any health issues or heart pain for the past five years, and I've been getting full body checks regularly since I was 27, which consistently show my heart rate in the 120 range. Is this something I should be really concerned about, and is it safe to go ahead with the ICL eye surgery? My report is attached. What should I do?

You have a consistently high heart rate around 120 range for the past 5 years without any health issues or abnormalities. This may be normal for you, especially if you are physically active or have a naturally high heart rate. However, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your elevated heart rate to ensure it is not due to any underlying medical condition. Considering you are planning to proceed with ICL eye surgery, it would be advisable to consult with a cardiologist to assess your heart health and determine if any further investigations or treatment are necessary before undergoing the surgery. The cardiologist may recommend medications such as Metoprolol to help lower your heart rate if needed. It is important to address any potential cardiac issues before proceeding with surgery to ensure your safety and well-being
