improving the survival rate with a 30% ejection fraction (low EF) is possible with a combination of medical treatment, lifestyle changes, device therapy, and careful monitoring. Close collaboration with your healthcare team is essential to managing heart function, preventing complications, and improving quality of life. Always follow the guidance of your cardiologist for the most appropriate treatment options based on your specific condition.

Question

I'm feeling really worried because after some arguments in my family, I noticed my stomach was moving up and down a lot, and my heart was beating way faster than usual. Is this something I should be concerned about, or is it just stress? What can I do to calm things down?

Question

I'm really worried about my health. I've been dealing with chest discomfort, gastric issues, and health anxiety for the last two years. Last year, I went through several tests like ECG, echo, TMT, blood tests, and even checked troponin levels twice, but everything came back normal. I also had deficiencies in vitamin D and B12, for which I took injections and tablets. Now, for the past two weeks, I've been feeling that high gastric indigestion and chest discomfort again. Yesterday, I did another ECG, and it showed a slight ST depression in V5, but I was really anxious at the time. Could this be just anxiety, or is there something serious going on? I'm really concerned about this.

Question
