I'm really worried right now because my mom just got her test results back and it shows she has a negative troponin test. I'm not sure what this means for her health. Can you please explain what steps we should take next or what we need to watch out for? Would really appreciate some advice on this.

Having a negative Trop T test indicates that there are no signs of a heart attack. It is a good sign. However, further evaluation may be needed to determine the cause of her symptoms. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

View allI've been dealing with some concerns about my blood pressure. I'm a 17-year-old guy, in pretty good shape with a BMI of 24.7, and I've noticed my blood pressure readings are often around 14060 or 13060. When I'm calm, the systolic number goes down to about 125, but the diastolic stays below 70, which I find unsettling. I do experience a bounding pulse in different areas of my body which adds to the stress. I've had health anxiety since the lockdown began, and I've been using homeopathy which has helped, and I'm also trying to keep my diet in check and exercise regularly. What's bugging me is why my diastolic number doesn't return to a typical range even when I'm managing everything else pretty well? When people talk about high blood pressure, I usually hear both systolic and diastolic numbers rise together, but mine seems to have one high and the other low. Could this be more than just anxiety, or is there something unique about my situation?
1. Your diastolic blood pressure not returning to normal despite your efforts could be due to a combination of factors, including anxiety and possibly other underlying health conditions. It's great that you are managing your anxiety with homeopathy, but it's essential to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management. In terms of medication, you can consider starting with a low dose of a calcium channel blocker like Amlodipine 2.5mg to help lower your diastolic blood pressure. 2. The fluctuation in your blood pressure readings, with systolic going up and diastolic going down, can be attributed to various factors such as stress, anxiety, and even the time of day when you measure your blood pressure. It's not uncommon for individuals to experience variations in their blood pressure readings, especially in response to different stimuli. However, persistent high diastolic blood pressure warrants attention and monitoring. 3. While anxiety may be a significant contributing factor to your elevated blood pressure readings, it's essential to rule out any other underlying medical conditions that could be impacting your diastolic blood pressure. Considering your age and overall fitness level, it's crucial to continue with your healthy lifestyle habits, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. Additionally, incorporating stress-reducing activities such as mindfulness or yoga may further help in managing your anxiety and potentially improving your blood pressure levels. Regular follow-ups with a healthcare provider will be beneficial in monitoring your blood pressure and adjusting your treatment plan as needed.

I'm a bit concerned about my latest ECG report and I was hoping you could help me understand it better. The QRS is 74 ms, the QTQTc Baz is 326420 ms, PR is 110 ms, P is 84, and the RRPP is 602600 ms. It also mentions PQrsT at 567627 degrees. Is there anything in there that I should be worried about? I've attached my cholesterol report too, if that helps give a clearer picture.
ECG report shows normal values for QRS duration, QTQtcBaz interval, PR interval, and P wave duration. The PQrsT angles are also within normal range. Based on the ECG report provided, there is no immediate cause for concern. For the cholesterol report, please provide the specific values for total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides for a more detailed assessment.

I'm experiencing arm pain that started in my left arm, but now it's also in my right arm. I've got this weird center chest pain too. I did an ECG, echo, and some blood tests, including a thyroid test about four days ago, and everything came back normal. The doctor mentioned it might be anxiety because my heart rate was really highlike 130 bpm during the ECG and my blood pressure was 15080. I've had this fear of heart issues for months, and now the symptoms seem to have gotten worse. They gave me Betanol TR 40 to try and help. Sometimes the arm pain gets really bad, but then it goes away and comes back. It feels like pins and needles, maybe like cramps. What could this be?
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety and cardiophobia, which can manifest as arm pain and chest discomfort. The medication prescribed to you, Betanol TR 40, is a brand name for Propranolol. This medication can help with managing symptoms of anxiety and can also help with reducing heart rate and blood pressure. The usual dosage for Propranolol in anxiety is 20-40mg taken 2-3 times a day. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and frequency of taking the medication. If you experience worsening symptoms or have any concerns, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
