I'm really worried about why so many people under 30, both guys and girls, seem to be getting cardiac arrests lately. What's going on, and how can we protect ourselves from this happening? I've had my 2D echo done and it came out normal, but should I still be concerned about this?

Cardiac arrest in young individuals can be caused by various factors such as genetic predisposition, underlying heart conditions (such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy), substance abuse (such as cocaine or stimulant use), infections, and structural abnormalities of the heart. To prevent cardiac arrest, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle by exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, managing stress, and getting regular check-ups with your healthcare provider. Since your 2D echo is normal, it is a good sign that your heart is functioning well. However, it is still important to continue with a healthy lifestyle and regular check-ups to monitor your heart health and prevent any potential issues in the future.

I'm really worried because I've been having this chest pain for the last 40 days. It used to be constant, but now it just comes and goes. I feel this heaviness in my left chest, and then it moves to the right. Sometimes there's this sharp pinch that lasts like two seconds, and I'm also burping a lot when I sit down. I've already done an ECG, which I've attached. Can you give me any advice or suggest any medication?
Based on your symptoms and ECG findings, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. However, considering the description of your pain and symptoms, it could also be related to acid reflux or gastritis. I recommend starting with an antacid medication like **Omeprazole** 20mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take **Simethicone** for relief from burping. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
