I'm having this chest pain again, just like a few months ago. I've already seen a doctor and done an ECG, but everything came back normal. It's happened three times nowsame pain, normal ECG results. What should I do next?

View allI'm feeling really anxious lately, and I've started noticing this strange sensation where my heart suddenly seems to beat extra hard or feels delayed, especially when I'm just sitting or standing quietly. Could my anxiety be causing these strong or extra heartbeats, or is there something else going on that I should be worried about?

I'm 36 and dealing with high cholesterol, but my heart checkup in May 2019 was all clear except for that. Just a couple of days ago, I suddenly got dizzy and sweaty during dinner, but I didn't have chest pain or trouble breathing. When I went to the hospital, they did two ECGs a couple of hours apart, and the doctor noticed some changes. They said my blood Troponin levels were negative though. Should I be worried about these changes in the ECG? Is it something I need to look into further?
Based on the information provided, it is important to follow up on the changes noted in your ECG to rule out any potential cardiac issues. The presence of dizziness and sweating, along with ECG changes, warrants further evaluation. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a thorough assessment and appropriate management. In the meantime, to help manage your high cholesterol, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dose of 10-20 mg once daily, as prescribed by your healthcare provider."

I'm a bit worried because my blood pressure is at 14289. I'm not really keen on starting medication right away if I can help it. Do you think changing my lifestyle could bring it down, or should I seriously consider taking medication? Any advice would be great.
For a blood pressure reading of 14289, it is slightly elevated and falls within the prehypertension range. Lifestyle changes can definitely help in lowering your blood pressure. You can start by maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, reducing sodium intake, eating a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables, limiting alcohol consumption, and managing stress. However, if lifestyle changes alone are not enough to lower your blood pressure, medication may be necessary. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare provider to discuss the best treatment plan for your specific situation.
