I've been experiencing heart palpitations with a rate of 130bpm for the past 4 months, and I also have chest pain. I'm only 17 years old. Can you help me figure out what's going on? I saw a physician, but I'm still not feeling better. What's the issue?

heart palpitations (130bpm) and chest pain for 4 months, it's essential to take your symptoms seriously and seek specialized medical attention. Although you've consulted a physician, consider seeking a second opinion from a cardiologist.

View allI'm getting really tired when I dance or do even small heavy tasks, and I'm not sure why. I already had an ECG, and it came back normal. I'm just wondering if there's something else that could be causing this?
Feeling tired during physical activity could be due to various reasons, even if your ECG results are normal. One common reason for this could be iron deficiency anemia. I recommend you to take iron supplements like Ferrous Sulfate 325mg once daily after meals for a few months. Additionally, make sure you are staying hydrated and eating a balanced diet rich in iron and other essential nutrients. If the symptoms persist, further evaluation may be needed.

I've had a bit of a scare recently while doing the dishes. I accidentally cut my finger on a piece of glass. Initially, it seemed alright after rinsing it with water, but then things got weird. I started feeling short of breath, my head went all dizzy, and just as I grabbed a napkin for the wound, my vision went dark like I couldn't see anything. I almost collapsed but managed to lie down on my bed, and then it all just went away. Does this sound like a serious issue to you?
You may have experienced a vasovagal response, which can sometimes occur in response to pain or stress. However, given the symptoms you described, such as difficulty breathing, dizziness, and vision changes, it is important to seek medical attention to rule out any serious underlying issues. In the meantime, you can clean the wound with antiseptic solution and apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Keep the wound covered with a sterile bandage and monitor for any signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, or discharge.

My dad's treadmill test results came back with a positive result, and the doctor mentioned he might need an angiography. The TMT report shows an ST depression of 1.5 to 2 mm. I'm really concerned about what this all means. Is this depression considered mild, or does it indicate a high possibility of blockage?
The ST depression of 1.5 to 2 mm on the TMT report indicates a moderate level of ischemia, suggesting a significant possibility of blockage in the coronary arteries. It is important to follow up with the angiography as recommended by the doctor to further evaluate the extent of blockage and determine the appropriate treatment. In the meantime, medications like Aspirin 75mg and Clopidogrel 75mg can be prescribed to reduce the risk of clot formation.
