I've noticed that when I'm just walking at a normal pace, my pulse rate sometimes jumps to around 130. I'm not doing any brisk walking, just regular walking. Is this something I should be concerned about? My ECG came out normal, but I'm still a bit worried about this pulse range of 110-130 when I'm just walking. Any thoughts?

A pulse rate of 110-130 during normal walking can be considered normal for some individuals, especially if you are not used to regular physical activity. Since you have already undergone an ECG and it was normal, it is a good sign that your heart is functioning well. However, it is always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

View allI'm 26 and I've been having anxiety symptoms. A couple of months ago, I experienced episodes of sinus tachycardia, and the ECG showed sinus tachycardia with ST and T wave depression in leads II, III, and AVF. I've had more ECGs since then with similar results, but my 2D echo was normal. My doctor suggested a TMT, which returned borderline positive with a low likelihood of significant CAD. During the TMT, METS was 8.8, BP was 15080, and the max heart rate was 187. I didn't feel any chest pain during the exercise. Do you think an angiogram is necessary, and what could be causing those ST and T wave changes?
Angiogram is needed any heart blocks..

I'm having chest pain for the past 20 days and it's getting worse. I saw a gastric doctor, but it didn't help. I have diabetes and I'm on insulin. I just visited a pulmonologist who did a chest X-ray and gave me digestive tablets and tonic. Should I be doing more tests or is this the right way to go?

I've been feeling pretty anxious about my heart health lately. A while back, I did an ECG, echo, chest X-ray twice, and a TMT, and it was like 8 months ago. My BP is usually around 150, and my LDL is 138. I got a blood test, and it was normal. I'm on the heavier side but don't smoke or drink and there's no family history of heart issues. Still, I get these short, sharp pains in my left chest, like they disappear in seconds, and sometimes there's this bubbling or vibrating sensation there too. Plus, there are moments when my left chest and bicep feel like they're pounding, just for a few seconds. Recently, when I'm walking, it feels like I'm wobbling or floating, and my legs and hands feel lighter. The doctor said not to worry and just keep my BP and LDL in check, but I'm still worried. What should I do?
"Based on your symptoms and medical history, it is important to focus on controlling your blood pressure and LDL levels to reduce the risk of heart issues. In addition to lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and a balanced diet, you may benefit from medication to manage your blood pressure and cholesterol levels. I recommend starting a medication like Atorvastatin (10mg) to lower your LDL levels and Amlodipine (5mg) to help control your blood pressure. It is important to take these medications as prescribed by your doctor and follow up regularly for monitoring and adjustments if needed."
