I've been experiencing some mild chest pain for about a month now. There hasn't been any coughing, fever, or cold symptoms, but the pain is located near my left breast. Occasionally, I also feel pain in my left arm and shoulders. Sometimes I struggle to breathe normally, and it often feels like something's stuck in my throat. What's going on with me?

View allI'm kind of worried because my recent TMT test was mildly positive, yet my cholesterol, BP, and ECG results were all normal. My doctor is suggesting an angiogram, but it's pretty expensive for me. Do you think it's really necessary to go through with it?
A mildly positive TMT test result, especially when other parameters like cholesterol, blood pressure, and ECG are normal, may indicate a potential issue with blood flow to the heart. An angiogram is considered the gold standard for evaluating blockages in the coronary arteries. However, in some cases, additional non-invasive tests such as a CT coronary angiography may provide further information before proceeding with an invasive procedure. It is important to discuss the necessity and potential alternatives with your doctor based on your individual health situation.

I'm really concerned about my health right now. My ECG showed sinus arrhythmia, but my other tests like the 2D echo and blood work came back normal. I have some heart blocks, but I've been trying to manage them with diet control. The issue is, I feel breathless whenever I walk, even though I don't have any other symptoms. Could you give me some advice on what steps I should take next?
Sinus arrhythmia is a common condition where the heart's rhythm varies with breathing. Since your 2D echo and blood tests are normal, it's a good sign. For managing heart blocks and breathlessness, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. This will help in controlling your heart rate and symptoms. Additionally, continue with your diet control and regular exercise routine. If breathlessness persists, you can use a bronchodilator like Salbutamol inhaler as needed.

I've been noticing that my heart is beating really fast and sometimes skips a beat, and it started about three weeks ago. I just turned 18 and have been masturbating a lot lately; I'm wondering if that's connected. I had an ECG done, and the doctor said my heart is fine, but it doesnt feel normal to me. My heart's never done this before. What steps can I take to get my heart rate back to normal?
