I've been seeing several cardiologists and had a bunch of echoes and TMTs, but I'm still feeling really rough. I used to get panic attacks but haven't had one in about a year. These last 3 days, I've felt off and noticed my blood pressure is on the rise, getting up to like 140104 or 13495. I saw a cardiologist who is a DM, and he said the ECG was normal but the echo showed mild TR, RSVP 45mmHg, and mild PAH. He prescribed me Dilzem 90. This morning I woke up and my heart rate was 111, and honestly, I felt like I was gonna collapse. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really sorry you're feeling this way. Given your history and current symptoms, it's understandable to be concerned. While your ECG and echo results show mild issues like mild tricuspid regurgitation and mild pulmonary hypertension, the elevated heart rate and BP need close monitoring. It's essential to follow up with your cardiologist and maybe explore further tests or adjustments to your treatment. Anxiety can also play a big role, so managing stress alongside medication might help stabilize things. Stay in touch with your doctor for tailored advice and reassurance.

View allLately, I've been noticing something a bit strange. Whenever I lie down or sit back, I feel my pulse throughout my whole body. It's not constant, just every now and then, and I especially feel it around my hips and the back of my head. The pulse isn't racing or anything out of the ordinary, but it's definitely noticeable. Should I be worried about this or is it just a normal thing?
That could be Gastritis usually,no need to worry its alswys better to get it clear,visit Cardiologist for evaluation and appropriate management

I'm really worried about my grandma. She's 87 and has no history of diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart disease; but she recently had a silent heart attack. She started complaining of breathlessness a few days later, and tests showed a weakened heart. They treated the pulmonary edema with lasix, and her pulse saturation seems stable now. Should we consider going for angioplasty?

My mom, who's 50, has been taking Thyronorm 50 for her thyroid. Her doctor mentioned noticing some changes in her ECG twice during her follow-ups and suggested she should get a TMT and an Echo done. Her 2D Echo looks normal with an LVEF of 65%, but her TMT came back positive for inducible ischemia at a moderate workload level. She's mentioned having shortness of breath sometimes when she's climbing stairs, but other than that, she's fine and doesn't have any chest pain or a history of high blood pressure or diabetes. What would you suggest as the next steps for her?
A 2D Echo is advised as a diagnostic procedure for heart blocks and other pathology..
