I'm having chest pain for the past two years and have already done tests like HLA B27 by PCR, ECG, 2D Echo, TMT, and a CT Coronary Angiography. All the results have come back normal, but I'm still dealing with this left-sided chest pain. My recent blood tests show HS CRP is 9.7, Lipoprotein A is 35.09, SGOT is 70.9, SGPT is 88.4, and GGT is 80.9. Now my doctor wants me to do a 2D Echo with a GLS test. What do you think is going on? Is there something specific my doctor might be looking for with this new test?

View allI'm a 25-year-old female and I've been having some chest discomfort along with feeling breathless. I'm also experiencing chills and sweating. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?
These symptoms could be indicative of a variety of conditions, including anxiety, panic attacks, asthma, or even a heart-related issue. It is important to seek medical attention for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a pain reliever like acetaminophen and try to relax in a comfortable position.

I'm a bit worried because my recent ECG shows a shortened PR interval of 107 ms, and my 2D echo indicates it's 200 GM. I've been diagnosed with mild LVH and currently take Revelol XL 50 and Newtel 20. I'm curious about the risks of having a PR interval less than 120 ms. Do you think I should get more tests?
The PR interval on your ECG report being lower than 120 ms indicates a shortened PR range. This can be a sign of an underlying heart condition. Considering you have mild LVH (Left Ventricular Hypertrophy) and are currently taking Revelol XL 50 (Metoprolol) and Newtel 20 (Telmisartan), it is important to monitor your heart health closely. To address the risk of a shortened PR interval, it is advisable to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation. Additional tests such as a Holter monitor, stress test, or cardiac MRI may be recommended to assess your heart function more comprehensively. It is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider to determine the best course of action based on your individual health status.

I'm taking 40 mg of Inderal daily since August 2019, but I switched to 20 mg last month. My pulse seems okay now. I also have thyroid issues, but they're under control at the moment. Could you guide me on how to safely stop taking Inderal?
take tab inderal 10 mg for another 6 months and then stop gradually..
