I've been having this pain in my left arm since yesterday, and it's really concerning me. I took a myotop p painkiller last night, but instead of getting better, the pain actually got worse this morning. I'm quite worried about what might be causing this. What should I do?

View allI'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.

I'm working night shifts from 5 PM to 3 AM IST, and my routine has me going to sleep around 3:30 AM, then waking up at 11:30 AM. I usually have my first meal at 1 PM, which is lunch. After that, I often take a nap, but during this time, I've noticed my heart feels like it's beating very fast, and I can actually hear it beating. Could you help me understand why this might be happening and what precautions I should follow?
After having lunch and going to sleep, feeling a high heart rate and hearing your heart beating sounds could be due to a condition called palpitations. Palpitations are feelings that your heart is skipping a beat, fluttering, or beating too hard or too fast. This can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, or certain medications. To help reduce palpitations and maintain a healthy heart rate, you can try the following precautions: - Avoid heavy meals right before bedtime - Stay hydrated throughout the day - Limit caffeine intake, especially in the afternoon and evening - Try to manage stress through relaxation techniques or activities - Ensure you are getting enough sleep and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule If the palpitations persist or worsen, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm trying to figure out what's going on with this persistent chest pain. I did a TMT on May 25 as advised by my doctor, and it turned out negative, but the pain in the middle of my chest just won't go away. I dont smoke or drink and there's no family history of heart disease. I've been dealing with asthma for the last two years. The pain doesn't increase when I walk or run, but it's really starting to make me anxious and it's even affecting my sleep. What can I do to alleviate this pain?
As per your description, it seems like you are experiencing chest pain despite a negative TMT result. Since you have a history of asthma and the pain is not worsening with physical activity, it may not be directly related to your heart. To help alleviate the chest pain and manage your anxiety, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like paracetamol (e.g., Tylenol) at a dose of 500mg to 1000mg every 4-6 hours as needed. Additionally, you can try using a heating pad on the area of discomfort and practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation to help with your anxiety and improve sleep. If the chest pain persists or worsens, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
