I'm experiencing some pain in my shoulder and arm, and it seems to be affecting the left side of my chest too. It's making it a bit hard to breathe. My current weight is 68 kg. Can you help me figure out what this might be?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart condition. The combination of pain in the left shoulder, arm, and chest, along with breathing problems, could be indicative of a heart issue. One common condition that presents with these symptoms is angina. I recommend you to take Aspirin 325mg immediately and call emergency services. It is important to seek medical attention promptly in such cases.

View allI've noticed that my heart rate is always above 90, and I also deal with anxiety. When I start overthinking, my heart rate shoots up to 105. Is this something normal, or should I be concerned and seek treatment?
A heart rate above 90 at rest and reaching 105 with anxiety and overthinking may indicate that your heart rate is elevated. To help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking Propranolol (Inderal) 10mg to 40mg as needed to help lower your heart rate and reduce anxiety symptoms. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm really worried about my mom, she's 40 and has been dealing with rheumatic heart disease. She had valve replacement surgery and is now on various medications, including something called cotton, but she's still facing issues like shortness of breath and a fast heart rate. I'm wondering if it's safe to try Ayurvedic treatment instead? Are there any risks if she stops her allopathy medicine in favor of Ayurvedic options?
Switching from allopathy (conventional medicine) to Ayurvedic treatment for a serious condition like rheumatic heart disease, especially after valve replacement surgery, should be done cautiously and under the guidance of healthcare professionals. Ayurvedic medications may have interactions with the current medications she is taking, so it is important to consult with her cardiologist before making any changes.

I'm trying to understand my echocardiography report and it's a bit confusing. It mentions terms like LVH, RWM, and systolic function, and I see numbers related to valves and arteries. It mentions things like Aorta 3.9 cm, LA 3.4 cm, and LV 5.3x3.2 cm, with an EF of 70. Could you help me figure out what this means? Is everything normal, or should I be worried?
ECHO report is normal
