Question 1

I've been fasting for the past few days for Ramadan and I'm 30 years old. I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing this slight pain in my left chest whenever I take a deep breath. Could this be related to fasting, like maybe from not eating for 12 hours? Is there something specific I should be worried about, and should I be taking any medication for it?

Accepted Answer

Question 2

Is it normal to feel like my heart is pounding really hard when I'm exercising? It feels like my heart's just doing a crazy workout on its own, almost like I can hold it in my hand. When I checked, my heart rate was between 130-140 during a heavy workout. I'm 20 and I do have high cholesterol. I had an ECG and echo done back in May, and everything seemed okay. But when I'm resting, my heart rate drops to about 50 bpm and it doesn't feel heavy at all. It's only happening when I'm working out. Should I be worried and stop doing these intense exercises?

Accepted Answer

It is not uncommon to feel a heavy heartbeat during intense exercise, especially when your heart rate is elevated. Given your age and previous normal cardiac evaluations, it is less likely to be concerning. However, if you continue to experience discomfort or if the symptoms worsen, it may be advisable to modify your exercise routine. To help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol at a low dose before exercise to help control your heart rate and reduce the sensation of a heavy heartbeat. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication. Additionally, focusing on aerobic exercises within your target heart rate zone and gradually increasing intensity may also help in reducing the sensation of a heavy heartbeat during exercise.

Question 3

I've been dealing with chest pain for the past one and a half months. I've had a chest X-ray, ECG, Echo, and TMT done, and all the reports came back normal. I even went to a cardiologist, and he said it's not related to my heart. The pain started about a week after I found out I have high BP. I'm currently taking Prolomet AM, Pantocid IT, Drise 60k, and Rozavel.

The pain feels like muscle pain on the upper side of my chest, on both sides. Sometimes, it feels like a pinch all over my chest. It also extends to my underarms and neck occasionally, and I feel tightness, especially on the upper right side of my chest. I sometimes have itching in my chest and sensations below my chin and jawline. What's strange is that I feel a bit better after some physical activity, like exercising or walking.

Could you help me figure out what's going on? What should I do next?
