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?

I've been checking my pulse rate a lot since yesterday, like 34 times, and it's been between 95 to 100 on the pulse oximeter. Is this okay, or does it seem a bit high? I'm just wondering what I should do to improve it if needed.

A pulse rate between 60 to 100 beats per minute is generally considered normal for adults. A pulse rate of 95 to 100 may be slightly on the higher side, but it could be due to various reasons such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, or physical activity. To help lower your pulse rate, you can try relaxation techniques like deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga. Make sure to stay hydrated, avoid caffeine and nicotine, and get an adequate amount of sleep. If your pulse rate consistently stays high or if you experience any other concerning symptoms, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance.

I'm concerned after seeing something on my dad's ECG report that mentioned diastolic dysfunction. He had a heart attack back in 2006 but hasn't had any problems for 11 years. Should we be worried about this diastolic dysfunction showing up now? What does it really mean for his heart health moving forward, especially given his heart history?

The ECG report indicating diastolic dysfunction in a patient with a history of a heart attack in 2006 is concerning, despite the absence of recent issues. Diastolic dysfunction refers to abnormalities in the heart's relaxation phase, which can lead to impaired filling of the heart chambers. To address this, it is important to manage the underlying heart condition effectively. In this case, prescribing medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril or ARBs like Losartan can help improve diastolic function and reduce the risk of further complications. Additionally, beta-blockers such as Metoprolol can be beneficial in managing heart conditions and improving overall heart function. Regular follow-ups with a cardiologist are essential to monitor the heart's health and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
