I'm experiencing this sharp pain in my left chest, like someone is poking me with a needle. It's been happening for the last 34 hours, not continuously, but I notice it every few months. It's not regular, but it keeps coming back. What could be causing this?

pain could be a cause of either myocardal infarction, acid reflux and could be either pericarditis or pericardial efusion or it could be precordial catch syndrome

View allI'm wondering about continuing with corbis bisoprolol 5 mg, which I've been taking for a decade now. My blood pressure is normal, and my pulse is hanging around 60. I'm aware that bisoprolol can lower heart rate, and even though I'm not experiencing any issues, I'm curious whether I should consult a doctor about switching medications because of the lower pulse rate. How long is it generally okay to stay on corbis if I'm not having any problems?

I'm a bit worried because my recent ECG shows a shortened PR interval of 107 ms, and my 2D echo indicates it's 200 GM. I've been diagnosed with mild LVH and currently take Revelol XL 50 and Newtel 20. I'm curious about the risks of having a PR interval less than 120 ms. Do you think I should get more tests?
The PR interval on your ECG report being lower than 120 ms indicates a shortened PR range. This can be a sign of an underlying heart condition. Considering you have mild LVH (Left Ventricular Hypertrophy) and are currently taking Revelol XL 50 (Metoprolol) and Newtel 20 (Telmisartan), it is important to monitor your heart health closely. To address the risk of a shortened PR interval, it is advisable to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation. Additional tests such as a Holter monitor, stress test, or cardiac MRI may be recommended to assess your heart function more comprehensively. It is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider to determine the best course of action based on your individual health status.

I'm trying to understand my echo report. It says all chamber sizes are normal, there's no regurgitation, and valve morphology is normal, with normal LV function. But it doesn't mention anything about pulmonary artery pressure. Does this mean my pulmonary pressure is normal? I'm a bit confused and would love some clarity on this.
Normal echo report..
