I've had a normal ECG and ECCO test, and even the treadmill stress test was normal. My blood sugar level and lipid profile are fine, but my cholesterol's high. I'm still having pain in my lower chest and a bit in my left hand. I'm really concerned. What's going on with me?

The pain in your lower chest and left hand could be due to musculoskeletal issues or possibly related to acid reflux. To alleviate the pain in your lower chest, you can take over-the-counter medications like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. For the pain in your left hand, you can try applying a topical pain relief gel like Volini gel and avoid any activities that worsen the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it's advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Sometimes my heart rate goes above 115 bpm, which is making me concerned since I know the normal range is between 60 to 100 bpm. I've been using an oximeter to check my heart rate. My baby recently passed away due to a cardiac problem and was born with a heart defect. Could this be related to my heart rate issues? Should I consider getting any tests done to check for potential issues?
A heart rate of 115bpm or higher is considered elevated. It can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, or physical activity. It is important to monitor your heart rate regularly and consult a doctor if you have persistent high heart rates. Given your family history of a baby with a heart defect, it may be a good idea to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation. Tests such as an ECG, echocardiogram, or stress test may be recommended to assess your heart health and rule out any underlying conditions. It's important to address any concerns about your heart health, especially given your family history.
