I'm experiencing shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my chest, and I've also noticed some pain in my calf muscles when I climb stairs. My heart starts beating really fast too. I've already had an echo stress test and a chest X-ray, and everything came back normal. What could be causing these symptoms? I'm really confused about what's going on.

View allI'm 18 and just got my ECG results which say sinus arrhythmia but I don't really understand what that means. My heart rate is 75 bpm, P is 97 ms, PR is 117 ms, QRS is 98 ms, QTQTc is at 352395 ms, and there's something about RV5 and SV1 being at 2.7031.245 mv. They noted it's a normal ECG, but I'm still a bit worried. Should I be concerned about any of these numbers?
Your ECG report indicates a normal heart rhythm with a diagnosis of sinus arrhythmia, which is a benign condition characterized by a variation in heart rate with breathing, and all other parameters, including PR, QRS, and QT intervals, are within normal limits, suggesting no underlying cardiac abnormalities, so you can be reassured that your heart is functioning normall

I'm really concerned because my heart rate is staying really high around 180 bpm. Even after taking medicine, it only went down to 160 bpm. Is this something I should be worried about? What can I do to help it get back to normal?
Heart rate of 180 bpm is considered very high and can be a sign of tachycardia. It's good that the medicine helped reduce it to 160 bpm, but it's still elevated. You should seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, you can take Metoprolol 25mg to help lower your heart rate. Make sure to rest, stay hydrated, and avoid any stimulants like caffeine.

I've been having this neck pain near my carotid pulse for a few days now, and it's like this sharp pain that comes and goes. My carotid pulse feels like it's beating strongly and sometimes fast. The first time it started was when I almost got mad at my boss. I also noticed my neck felt tight, and my tie was a bit snug. The next day, I checked my blood pressure at a clinic, and it was normal. I'm worried about what's going on. Do you think this is something I should be concerned about?
ecg ,cardiac markers and cardiologist opinion is advised.
