I'm feeling really worried because I've been experiencing chest pain whenever I walk or exert myself. I had a TMT test done, and it was negative. They tried doing a PFT test, but it couldn't be performed. My X-ray came back normal, and the 2D echo showed 60. What could be causing these chest pains despite all these tests being normal? I'm really concerned about what might be happening.

View allI'm experiencing heart palpitations and my heart beats faster sometimes along with chest discomfort, all this in the past six months or so. I've had an ECG, echo, and TMT and they all came back normal. My blood pressure at home is usually below 12085, but when I go to the doctor's office, it shoots up to 13090 and sometimes even 150100. Should I be worried about this difference in blood pressure readings, and could it be linked to the palpitations I'm feeling?
Since six months some time feel heart palpitation and beat faster and chest discomfort. I have done ecg echo tmt everything normal. Bp also below 12085 at home But doctor clinic always 13090 some time 150100. It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of palpitations and chest discomfort despite normal results on your ECG, echo, and TMT tests. Your blood pressure readings are also slightly elevated at the doctor's clinic. In such cases, your symptoms may be related to anxiety or stress. I recommend trying a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (dosage: 25-50mg once daily) to help with the palpitations and chest discomfort. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may also be beneficial.

I've been having some chest pain for the last few days and it's really been bothering me. Sometimes it feels uncomfortable and along with the chest pain, I get this ache in my arm joint or at the back of my neck, and it's just getting worse at times. The pain tends to last for a few hours. What could be causing this and should I be concerned?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. In such cases, it is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment. Common medications prescribed for angina include: - Nitroglycerin: 0.4mg sublingual tablet, to be taken as needed for chest pain - Aspirin: 81mg to 325mg daily, to help prevent blood clots - Beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol): Dosage varies, to help reduce heart rate and blood pressure - Calcium channel blockers (e.g. Amlodipine): Dosage varies, to help relax blood vessels It is important to seek medical attention to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and receive appropriate treatment.

I'm feeling really anxious because I've been having some breathlessness and gastric issues. I had an ECG done and it showed sinus tachycardia along with a small inferior wave. The report mentioned something about a borderline ECG and that an infarct can't be excluded. The doctor said the ECG's normal and there's nothing to worry about if the acidity improves. But I'm still a bit concerned. Should I be worried about the sinus tachycardia or the possibility of an infarct? Are there any other tests I should consider?
"Based on your ECG report showing sinus tachycardia with a small inferior wave, along with concerns about borderline ECG and the possibility of infarct not being excluded, it is important to further evaluate your cardiac health. Sinus tachycardia is often a normal response to various factors such as stress, anxiety, or caffeine intake. However, in some cases, it can be related to underlying heart conditions. To assess the situation further, I recommend additional tests such as a cardiac enzyme test to rule out any potential heart damage, a stress test to evaluate your heart's function under exertion, and possibly a coronary angiography to assess the blood flow to your heart. These tests will provide more information about your heart health and help determine if any further treatment or monitoring is necessary. In the meantime, managing your gastric symptoms and acidity is important. You can take medications like omeprazole for acidity relief. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as avoiding spicy foods, eating smaller meals, and avoiding lying down after eating can help alleviate gastric issues. It's essential to follow up with your doctor for a comprehensive evaluation and to discuss the results of these additional tests."
