I've been feeling like my heart is racing constantly, almost like how when I'm really stressed or anxious. Could it be related to sinus tachycardia, and what symptoms should I look out for? Should I be worried about this, or does it normally resolve on its own?

Had open heart surgery with a bental procedure back in August 2014 and now dealing with seroma pinna swelling and fluid buildup in my outer ear. The doctor suggested either needle drainage or surgery, but I'm on daily warfarin 10mg. Is it safe to go ahead with either option given the blood thinners?

yes, can use blood thinner.

I've been noticing this weird pain in the upper left side of my chest, especially when I yawn. It's not constant, but more annoying in the mornings. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it? Any advice would be appreciated.

The intermittent chest pain in your left upper chest, particularly when yawning, could be related to musculoskeletal issues, such as costochondritis (inflammation of the cartilage connecting ribs to the breastbone) or intercostal muscle strain; however, to rule out cardiac or pulmonary causes, consult a cardiologist or a primary care physician for a thorough evaluation, including a physical exam, electrocardiogram (ECG), and possibly a chest X-ray or stress test.

I'm a bit worried as I checked my ECG today, and it showed something like 302 TV1 TV5 and it said borderline normal ECG. Im really not sure what this means. Could you help me understand what the actual issue might be and suggest any precautions I should take when dealing with a borderline ECG?
