I've been having chest pain when I walk for the last 8 days, but my ECG and 2D echo reports came back normal. I've had asthma since childhood, and I'm 48 years old, weighing 75 kg. When I get the chest pain, there's no breathlessness or anything else, just the pain. It eases up when I rest. My blood pressure is normal, too. What could be causing this?

I'm recovering from Covid and sometimes I feel my heart racing, so my doctor wants me to get some tests done. I've already finished my ECG and Echo, and I'm wearing this Holter monitor today. Do I need to just hang out at home and keep an eye on things, or can I go about my normal day, like going to work, having meetings, and driving around? If keeping up with my usual routine is doable, is it necessary or could I just relax at home if I wanted to? Let me know what you think!

While the Holter machine is fitted on your body, it is recommended to continue your regular daily activities as usual. You can go to the office, attend meetings, drive, and carry on with your daily routine. There is no need to stay at home and observe yourself during the Holter monitoring. It is important to maintain your usual activities to get an accurate representation of your heart's activity throughout the day. Thank you for providing the information.

I've been feeling a bit off lately and got a 2D echo. It says I have LV diastolic dysfunction type 1. I'm only 34. Is this something I should be really worried about? What should I do next?

LV diastolic dysfunction type 1 indicates that the left ventricle of your heart is not relaxing properly during the filling phase. In such cases, it is important to manage any underlying conditions that may be contributing to this dysfunction. Treatment may include medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril 5-20mg once daily or ARBs like Losartan 25-100mg once daily to help improve heart function and reduce symptoms. It is also important to make lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking to support heart health. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is essential to monitor your condition and adjust treatment as needed.
