I've been having some chest pain and got an echo done, and the report mentioned "normal diastolic dysfunction." I'm trying to understand what this means. Should I be worried about it being serious, or is it something normal? I'm a bit anxious about what this report could imply. Could you help clarify this for me?

I'm really worried because I was just sitting and out of nowhere, I felt a shock in my chest. My legs suddenly went cold, and I started vomiting something that tasted like acid. I have all my reports with me. Does this sound like something serious?

Sudden sensations of a shock in the heart, cold legs, and vomiting acid are concerning symptoms that should be promptly evaluated by a healthcare provider. While your recent 2D echo, TMT, and chest X-ray are normal, the acute nature of these symptoms, especially the feeling of a heart shock and cold legs, could indicate a serious condition such as a cardiac event or a severe gastrointestinal issue like a stomach acid reflux or esophageal spasm. It is crucial to seek immediate medical attention to rule out any potentially serious conditions. Your healthcare provider may recommend additional diagnostic tests, such as an electrocardiogram (ECG) if not already done, blood tests, or an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy to determine the cause of your symptoms.

I'm a bit worried because my cardiologist just switched my medication from clopidogrel 75mg and aspirin 75mg to clopitab cv 20mg. I took the old meds this morning. Is it okay to start with the new one tonight? If I wait until tomorrow, itll be over 24 hours between doses. What should I do?

If your cardiologist has advised you to switch from clopidogrel 75mg and aspirin 75mg to Clopitab CV 20mg (which combines clopidogrel and a lower dose of aspirin), you can start taking the new medication tonight. This will ensure continuous antiplatelet protection without a significant gap. However, to be absolutely certain and to avoid any potential interaction or complications, it is best to confirm this plan with your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

I'm really concerned about this situation. I recently experienced chest pain and pain in my left hand, so I went to the doctor and had a TMT test done. The results came back positive for exercise-induced myocardial ischemia. What's confusing is that I had a CT Coronary Angiogram back in 2019 and everything was normal then. Could you help me understand what this might mean for my heart health now? I've attached my TMT and Angiogram reports for reference.
