I've been having heart pain for about 10 days now and it's really starting to worry me. It's also affecting my lower shoulder and back, and I'm finding it hard to breathe sometimes. I feel tired all the time and occasionally feel nauseous too. I'm concerned about what's going on. Do you think this could be something serious?

Based on the description of your symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. The combination of heart pain, lower shoulder and back pain, heavy breathing, constant fatigue, and occasional nausea could be indicative of a serious underlying condition. It is crucial to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

View allI'm wondering if it's okay to take my blood pressure while I'm lying down or if I should always be in a sitting position. Does the blood pressure reading change when I'm lying down compared to when I'm sitting?
It is generally recommended to measure blood pressure while sitting, as this is the standard position for accurate readings. However, in some cases, it may be necessary to measure blood pressure while lying down, especially for patients who have difficulty sitting or standing. Blood pressure readings can vary depending on body position, with readings typically lower when lying down compared to sitting or standing.

I'm really worried about my mom. Lately, she's been feeling these vibrations in her heart every now and then. It sounds strange, but she tells me it happens occasionally. On top of that, she's also been having leg pain for the past few days. Is this something to be concerned about? She's currently on medications like Ozone cynocal, lcOsil, and Ozone ozocal. Could these symptoms be related to the meds, or is it something else going on? Would really appreciate some guidance.
Your mother's symptoms of occasional heart vibrations, also known as palpitations, and leg pain, could indicate an underlying condition such as arrhythmia, anemia, or poor circulation, and while the medications she's taking, such as Ozone Cynocal LC (iron supplements), Osil Ozone ( omega-3 fatty acids), and Ozocal (calcium supplements), may be helpful, it's essential to consult her doctor urgently to rule out any serious cardiac or vascular issues and adjust her treatment plan accordingly

Greetings, doctors. I'm really worried about my heart. I'm 36, weigh 45 kg, and stand 5'4". I've been through countless tests like ECG, echo, TMT, and USG, and they all show I'm normal. Despite this, I'm terrified that I'll die of a heart attack. I witnessed my cousin's grandmother die from a heart issue right in front of me a couple of years ago, and ever since, Ive been living in fear. Because of this fear, my heart's always palpitating, I have difficulty breathing, feel dizzy, and get chest pains sometimes. Even when I had palpitations, my ECG showed normal at 116 bpm. My blood pressure is also steady, usually at 12080 or 70. It's scary, and I've even quit my job over this stress. All my tests like thyroid, KFT, lipid, vitamins, and LFT are also normal. Should I consider coronary angiography or maybe something else? I'm just feeling lost and need guidance, please.
It sounds like you are experiencing a lot of anxiety and fear related to your heart health. Given your age, weight, and the normal test results you have mentioned, it is less likely that you have a serious heart condition. The symptoms you are describing, such as palpitations, difficulty breathing, dizziness, and chest pain, could be related to anxiety and panic attacks. To help alleviate your fears and symptoms, I recommend trying a medication called **Propranolol**. It is a beta-blocker that can help with palpitations, chest pain, and anxiety. You can start with a low dose of **10mg** once a day and gradually increase it as needed under medical supervision. In addition to medication, it would be beneficial for you to seek counseling or therapy to address the underlying anxiety and fear you are experiencing. **Sertraline** is an antidepressant that can also help with anxiety. You can start with a dose of **25mg** daily and adjust as needed. Remember to practice relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness, to help manage your anxiety symptoms. It is important to take care of your mental health as well as your physical health. If your symptoms persist or worsen, do not hesitate to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and support.
