I've been dealing with tinnitus and anxiety for about six months now, and this morning when I blew my nose, I noticed these random blood stains in my mucus, and it was really frothy. I've also been feeling this weird gurgling sensation in my chest, and occasionally, there's a sharp pain in my left shoulder, but it doesn't last more than a second. My blood pressure was 104 over 70 this morning. I don't have diabetes, but my cholesterol levels are off; it's at 228, with HDL at 49 and LDL at 150, and my triglycerides are at 142. I'm getting worried... is this something serious, or is my heart okay?

It is important to address these symptoms promptly. The presence of blood in your mucus, along with chest discomfort and shoulder pain, could indicate potential issues with your heart or respiratory system. Given your cholesterol levels, there may be an increased risk of cardiovascular problems. I recommend seeking immediate medical attention. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 81mg for potential heart-related symptoms. Please consult a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm feeling really confused and worried. Last year, my echocardiogram showed diastolic dysfunction, but when I did it again this year, it showed everything was fine with no sign of it. I'm trying to understand if diastolic dysfunction can reverse itself? I read online that it usually happens to older people, but I'm not that old and my blood pressure, sugar, and thyroid levels are all normal. Why did this happen to me, and should I be worried about it?

Your present echocardiogram is normal, previous report may reflect your clinical condition on that time. At present your reports are within normal limits.

I'm curious about some symptoms I've been experiencing. A few months back, I did an echo report and a TMT, which came back negative. Lately, though, I've been having this pressure and a burning sensation in my chest, plus a lot of burping. I'm a bit worriedis this something heart-related? Should I consider getting more tests done to check my heart health? Would love to hear your thoughts.

based on your symptoms of pressure in chest, burping, burning sensation, and pain in chest, it is important to further evaluate your heart health. In addition to the echo report and negative TMT, I would recommend a few more tests for a comprehensive heart evaluation. 1. **ECG (Electrocardiogram)**: To assess the electrical activity of your heart. 2. **Holter Monitor**: To monitor your heart's activity over a period of time. 3. **Cardiac CT Scan or MRI**: To get detailed images of your heart's structure and function. 4. **Blood tests**: Such as lipid profile and cardiac enzymes to check for any abnormalities. Based on the results of these tests, further treatment or management can be determined.
