I'm feeling really concerned because for the last 23 days I've been having this chest pain on the left side. It spreads to my left hand and even down to my wrist. It feels like my chest is being squeezed, and at times it's like someone's poking me with a pin. The pain sometimes goes to my back too. About six months ago, I had this pain that felt like a mild heart attack. Do you think this could be something serious?

Chest pain, especially when radiating to the arm and back, could be a sign of a heart issue. Given your past experience, I strongly recommend that you seek immediate medical evaluation to rule out any serious heart conditions.

View allCan an angiogram lead to cardiac instability? What might happen to other parts of the body if the heart becomes unstable? Could it cause things like clumping of the intestines, severe stomach pain, or nausea? Just trying to understand the possible effects, you know?
Angiogram is a diagnostic procedure that involves injecting a contrast dye into the blood vessels to visualize the heart's blood flow. While rare, there is a small risk of cardiac instability during an angiogram, which may include irregular heartbeats or changes in blood pressure. Cardiac instability can lead to decreased blood flow to other organs, potentially causing symptoms such as dizziness, shortness of breath, and chest pain. In severe cases, it can result in organ damage or failure. Will it cause clumping of intestine, severe stomach pain, nausea, etc.? Cardiac instability itself is unlikely to cause clumping of the intestine, severe stomach pain, or nausea. However, if there are complications during or after the angiogram procedure, such as a reaction to the contrast dye or a blood clot formation, it may indirectly affect the gastrointestinal system and lead to symptoms like abdominal pain or nausea. If you experience any unusual symptoms after an angiogram, it is important to seek medical attention promptly.

I'm a bit confused about my recent TMT test results since it came back negative. Can you explain what that means for me?
A negative TMT (Treadmill Test) result indicates that there were no significant abnormalities detected during the test. It means that there is no evidence of blockages or reduced blood flow to the heart during physical activity. This is a good sign for your heart health.

I've noticed that almost every time I shout or scream while at church, I start feeling really lightheaded and dizzy, almost like I might pass out. It's like I have to close my eyes and hold onto something just to stay steady. Is this normal, or could it be a sign of something more? What's going on with my body when this happens?
The symptoms of lightheadedness, dizziness, and feeling like passing out after shouting or screaming at church may be related to a vasovagal response, a common condition where the nervous system overreacts to stress or excitement, causing a temporary drop in blood pressure and heart rate, and it's recommended to consult a md medicine to rule out other potential causes, such as dehydration, anxiety, or underlying heart conditions.
