I've been feeling this heaviness in my chest for about two weeks. There's no actual pain in my chest, but I do feel some kind of pain at the back. Should I be worried about this?

I'm experiencing all the symptoms that feel like angina. I've had chest pain, shortness of breath when walking, pain in my left arm, and jaw pain. I already did an ECG and an echocardiogram, and they came back normal. Should I have more tests done?

I'm really concerned about my husband's heart; his heartbeat is always too fast. He says it's been like this since he was a child. Should I be worried about this?

Hi, if your husband's heart rate is consistently fast, it is important to have him evaluated by a doctor to determine the underlying cause. One common condition that can cause a fast heart rate is supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Medications like Metoprolol (25-100mg) can be prescribed to help control the heart rate. However, a proper diagnosis is necessary to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

I'm having some slight chest pain and noticed a little change in my ECG readings. Could this be related to the medications I'm taking? I'm currently on Ecosprin, Thinrin, Concor, Coversyl, and Crestor. Should I be worried about this combination of medicines affecting my heart?

The chest pain and ECG variation could be due to underlying cardiovascular issues. The medications you mentioned are commonly used for heart conditions: - ECOSPRIN (Aspirin) is a blood thinner and antiplatelet medication. The usual dosage for heart conditions is 75-325mg per day. - THINRIN (Clopidogrel) is also a blood thinner and antiplatelet medication. The usual dosage is 75mg per day. - CONCOR (Bisoprolol) is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure and heart conditions. The usual dosage ranges from 2.5mg to 10mg per day. - COVERSYL (Perindopril) is an ACE inhibitor used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. The usual dosage ranges from 2mg to 16mg per day. - CRESTOR (Rosuvastatin) is a statin medication used to lower cholesterol levels. The usual dosage ranges from 5mg to 40mg per day. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.
