I'm really worried about my relative who had MVR surgery a year ago. Yesterday, he experienced severe abdominal pain and his blood pressure shot up to 190100, but it's back to normal now. His troponin level came back at 0.0527. Could you help me understand what this means for his heart health? Should we be concerned?

I'm a bit worried because for the past two days, I've been having some breathing discomfort, but it's not constant. It mostly happens after I've eaten in the afternoon and at night. I'm also experiencing some pain in my shoulder. I just started Zumba exercises, and it seems like this all started the day after. Do you think there's a connection? What's going on with my breathing and shoulder?

I'm a 39-year-old guy dealing with high blood pressure, and I've been on telmisartan 40 mg for like five years. Just recently, I found out I have Grade 1 Left Ventricular Hypertrophy. I don't have diabetes but my cholesterol is on the higher side, and I'm taking medication for anxiety too. I'm really stressed about this LVH diagnosis and can't help but wonder about my life expectancy with it. Is this something that's going to affect me in just the next couple of years? I'm from Australia and my appointment with the cardiologist is still two months away, so any insight before then would mean a lot to me.

I've been feeling really nervous lately, and my heart starts beating really fast. Sometimes it even feels like there's a tremor in my heart. I'm really worried that my heart might be weak. Can you suggest any treatments or advice to help me with this heart issue?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety and panic attacks. To help manage these symptoms, you can try taking Propranolol (Inderal) 10mg to 40mg as needed to help reduce the physical symptoms of anxiety such as fast heart rate and tremors. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques, deep breathing exercises, and mindfulness meditation can also be helpful in managing anxiety symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
