I'm really worried about my cousin. Every time they're talking, they get this warm feeling in their left upper arm and chest. It feels kind of hot, and then there's pain in the upper arm, but it goes away after a while. Should we be concerned, or is this something that might be normal?

View allI'm a bit concerned about my health and would really appreciate some advice. Back in May 2017, I had an angioplasty and have been keeping up with my meds and exercises since then. Currently, I'm on cilacar for my blood pressure and crevast 7510. I used to take ecosprin 7520, but my ENT doctor suggested that it could have been causing my nasal block and sinus issues. I've had two nasal surgeries to remove polyps, and I've been on crevast for the past month. So, I'm just wondering how often I should be getting my ECG, treadmill, echo, and other tests done. I've been doing lab tests every three months and everything's come back normal. Any guidance on this would be really helpful.
it is important to monitor your heart health regularly. Since you have already been taking lab tests once every three months and they have been normal, it is recommended to continue with this frequency for now. Additionally, it is advisable to undergo an ECG, treadmill test, and echo once every 6-12 months to assess your heart function and overall cardiovascular health. However, the frequency of these tests may vary based on your individual health condition and any specific recommendations from your cardiologist.

So, I've been having this chest pain for a few months now, and I went through all the basic heart checks. My ECG was normal, but it showed Sinus tachycardia, and the TMT came back negative. The first time I did a 2D Echo, they mentioned Mild Concentric LVH, but when I repeated it a few days later, they didnt find any LVH. I even went for another 2D Echo at a different place, and again, they said there was no LVH. Is it common for results to differ like this? Could my chest pain still be related to my heart, and have I done enough tests to rule out any cardiac issues? Also, just to add, I dont smoke or drink.
It is possible for there to be discrepancies in medical imaging findings, especially when it comes to conditions like mild concentric LVH. However, since your ECG and TMT results are normal and there is no longer evidence of mild concentric LVH on your recent 2D Echo, it is less likely that your chest pain is cardiac in nature. It is important to consider other potential causes for your chest pain, such as musculoskeletal issues, gastrointestinal problems, or even anxiety. To further evaluate your chest pain and rule out any other cardiac issues, you may consider discussing with your healthcare provider about other tests such as a stress echocardiogram, coronary CT angiography, or cardiac MRI. Additionally, lifestyle modifications, stress management techniques, and regular follow-ups with your doctor are important for your overall health and well-being.
