I'm wondering if you can help me out. I was stretching my neck and suddenly felt a squeezing sensation in my upper chest. Now, I'm noticing a bit of pain in my chest whenever I stretch or do activities that involve my chest. My breathing seems fine, though. Should I be concerned about this chest pain, or is it something that might go away on its own? Looking forward to your advice.

I've had several EKGs, and they keep showing I have inverted T wave lines. Ive also done a few stress tests, which were said to be normal. But then I ended up in the ER with chest pain, and the doctor there said I need a heart cath because my stress tests werent completely normal. One doctor says they're normal, and another one disagrees. I'm only 45 years old, and I'm just wondering if a heart cath is really necessary. I've got an appointment with a cardiologist in 9 days, and I'm feeling a bit nervous about all this. What do you think?

ECHO is advised for further management.

I'm really worried about my brotherI could use some advice. He's 32 and had angioplasty with 2 stents about 1.5 years ago. Right now, he's doing okay and just takes one tablet in the morning that the doctor advised. But here's the thinghe's started drinking alcohol twice a week, and he claims the doctor said it's fine. I'm not sure if he's being completely honest or not. Is drinking okay for someone with his heart issues, especially considering the stents? What could be the pros and cons?

alcohol cessation is advised. Also salt restricted diet , DASH diet like fruits,vegetables, legumes are advised to the patient.
