I've been experiencing some chest pain when I'm jogging or running. My diagnosis results, including the echo and ECG, came back normal. Could you please help me understand what might be causing this kind of pain?

Chest pain during physical activity like jogging and running, with normal results on echo and ECG, could be due to musculoskeletal causes such as muscle strain or costochondritis. It could also be related to conditions like acid reflux or anxiety. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen for muscle pain, or antacids for acid reflux. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques for anxiety may also help. If the pain persists or worsens, further evaluation may be needed.

I'm really worried because her entire body is getting swollen and the doctor mentioned something about heart enlargement with fluid buildup. She seems to only stay healthy and not get swollen if she consistently takes her medication and injections to remove the fluid. What's this condition called, how serious is it, and what can be done to help her live a healthier, longer life? I'd really appreciate any advice.

It sounds like your loved one is experiencing symptoms of congestive heart failure, which is a serious condition where the heart is unable to pump blood effectively, leading to fluid buildup in the body. To manage this condition and improve her health and longevity, she will need to take medications such as Furosemide (Lasix) to help remove excess fluid from the body. Additionally, medications like Lisinopril (Zestril) or Carvedilol (Coreg) may be prescribed to help the heart function better and reduce symptoms. It is important for her to follow a low-sodium diet, monitor her fluid intake, and regularly follow up with her healthcare provider for proper management of her condition.

Hey, I'm 43 and generally healthy, but I recently had an ECG done. It says my heart rate is 66 beats per minute with a sinus rhythm, but there are nonspecific ST-T changes in III and aVF. I'm not sure what that means. Should I be concerned? Can you help explain this to me?

The ECG report showing a heart rate of 66 beatsminute with sinus rhythm and nonspecific ST-T changes in III and aVF may indicate possible heart conditions such as myocardial ischemia or electrolyte imbalances. To address this, you can take Aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent blood clot formation and improve blood flow to the heart. Additionally, you can take Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm getting really out of breath whenever I climb stairs, even though I recently had a stress echo and other tests that came back normal. Could this be related to my heart, or is it just because I don't climb stairs that often? What else could be causing this?

pulmonologist opinion.
