I'm noticing my heart beats a lot when I'm climbing stairs, and I'm feeling a sensation in my ears because of it. Is this something dangerous? I've heard a bit about mild MRV in 2D imagingshould I be concerned about that in this context? What do you think is going on?

I'm trying to understand what's more accurate for diagnosing left ventricular hypertrophycardiac CT or echocardiography. Which one should I trust more for reliable results? I'm a bit worried and want to make sure I get the right diagnosis.

For the diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), echocardiography is generally considered to have better accuracy compared to cardiac CT. Echocardiography provides real-time images of the heart's structure and function, allowing for a more detailed assessment of LVH. In contrast, cardiac CT can also be used to diagnose LVH, but it may not provide as much detail as echocardiography. In terms of accuracy, echocardiography is typically the preferred imaging modality for diagnosing LVH due to its ability to visualize the heart in real time and assess various parameters such as wall thickness and chamber size. Therefore, if you are looking for a more accurate result in diagnosing LVH, echocardiography would be the recommended imaging test. In some cases, both imaging modalities may be used in conjunction to provide a comprehensive evaluation of LVH. However, if you are specifically looking for the most accurate result, echocardiography is often the preferred choice.

I've been feeling kind of uncomfortable in my chest, mostly at night, and sometimes the pain stretches out to my left arm. On top of that, I've been dealing with this left side neck pain and a bit of an ache in my upper back. Do you think I should be worried about this or is it something that might go away on its own? What could it be?

The symptoms you are describing could be indicative of a heart-related issue. It is important to seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg for potential heart-related chest pain. Please chew the tablet for faster absorption. Remember to call emergency services or go to the nearest emergency room for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm experiencing some pain in my chest on the right side of my body, especially when I take a deep breath. It's hard to pinpoint the exact spot, but it feels like it's near the upper part of my back. The pain gets intense with certain movements and when I breathe deeply. This happened about a year ago too, and the doctor did an ECG, but everything checked out fine back then. I don't have any other symptoms, and everything else seems normal. Could it be from bad posture while sleeping or sitting, or maybe it's a severe acidity problem? What do you think is causing this?

Patient is advised pulmonary function test(PFT).
