I've been experiencing some really strange sensations around my heart. It feels heavy, like my heart is beating too hard or could stop at any moment. Sometimes I even feel like an electric shock goes through my body. I've had an echo and TMT test, and both came back normal. The doctors say my heart is perfect and healthy, but I can't shake the feeling that I might have a cardiac arrest or heart attack at any time. I'm 18 years old and honestly, it's kind of freaking me out. Can you give me some advice or insights on what might be going on?

View allI've been noticing that my heart starts beating really fast sometimes, especially when I'm going up the stairs, and it makes me feel pretty anxious. Could you suggest some tests to figure out what's going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart condition. I recommend you get the following tests done to evaluate your heart health: 1. Electrocardiogram (ECG) to check the electrical activity of your heart. 2. Echocardiogram to assess the structure and function of your heart. 3. Stress test to evaluate how your heart responds to physical activity. 4. Holter monitor to record your heart's activity over a period of time. 5. Blood tests to check for any abnormalities in your heart enzymes or hormones. These tests will help determine the cause of your symptoms and guide further treatment.

I'm Priyanka, and I'm a bit concerned about my health. My TMT test showed inconclusive results regarding ischemia. I'm also looking at my lipid profile, which shows total cholesterol at 172, triglycerides at 172, HDL at 42, and LDL at 95.5. Could you help me understand what these numbers mean for my health and suggest any steps I should take? I've been feeling unwell, and I'm not sure what to do next.
Hello Priyanka, based on your test results and symptoms, it seems like you may be experiencing some cardiovascular issues. I would recommend starting treatment with a statin medication to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. You can start taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help improve your lipid profile and reduce the risk of ischaemia. Additionally, you should focus on lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management to further improve your overall cardiovascular health.

I'm feeling really anxious today because after taking Bromelain this morning, my blood pressure machine has been showing an irregular heartbeat consistently. My BP reading is 133 over 80, and my heart rate is 71. I'm not sure if this is serious enough to warrant a trip to the hospital. Any insights on what I should do?
Bromelain is a natural supplement derived from pineapples that may cause side effects such as irregular heartbeat in some individuals. Since you are experiencing this symptom along with uncertainty, it is advisable to seek medical attention. You can take 25mg of Metoprolol to help regulate your heartbeat. If the irregular heartbeat persists or worsens, please visit the hospital for further evaluation and management.
