I've woken up today with this weird numb feeling on the top left part of my chest right above my breast. It feels tingly when I touch it, but there's no pain. Also, I'm sweating on and off and my mid back is aching. Could this be something serious?

So I've been having this cough for the last couple of days and it's making my heart race and flutter, even when I'm trying to sleep. I got some tests done like an ECG, echo, and chest X-ray back in March. Should I be doing all those tests again? Every time I cough, it feels like my heart is either trying to jump out or like it's getting all tight, and it's really freaking me out. There's also this pain now and then, plus twitching in my feet and neck, and it's making me super anxious about my health. Is Benadryl syrup gonna help with all this? I'm also burping a lot, and my heart feels like it's pounding out of my chest. With all those tests coming back normal before, Im just wondering if I need to repeat them. And while I'm at it, what exactly is the main reason people get heart attacks? It's been like this since February, and I'm feeling really low and freaked out. My blood pressure is usually 11090 and my pulse is often above 100. I'm 25, by the way. Any ideas what's up with all this?

The fluttering and pounding sensation in your heart could be related to the increased pulse rate and coughing. Given your history of normal tests in March, it may be beneficial to consult with a doctor for a thorough evaluation. Benadryl syrup may help with some symptoms, but it is important to address the underlying cause. Considering your symptoms and history, it is advisable to try a combination of medications. You can take Benadryl syrup for cough relief and consider taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole 20mg for burping. Additionally, you can take Propranolol 10mg for heart palpitations. However, it is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication. The main reason for a heart attack can be due to various factors such as smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, lack of physical activity, and stress. It is essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle to reduce the risk of heart attacks, especially at a young age. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my husband's recent health tests. He had an ECG and a 2D echo at Manipal hospitals as part of a health package. When we looked at the reports at home, we noticed that the Doppler study mentions a mitral flow ea and a tr jet at 2.7ms with a 30mm gradient. The doctors there didn't mention anything unusual, but this feels concerning. He's had high blood pressure for years but it's now under control with lifestyle changes and he's stopped taking medication recently. His cholesterol is also high, with a total of 222, HDL at 39, and LDL at 159. I'm not sure what steps to take next. Should we consider an angiogram?

No need to worry they are optimum and no need to rush for any other investigations maintain healthy lifestyle and follow your doctors advice and regular follow ups with your doctor

I've got my ECG results, and it mentions left axis deviation and early repolarization. I'm 21 and male, and I'm really confused about what this means for my health. Should I be worried about being medically unfit? What should I do next?

You should show your ECG report to a physician to get a clearer picture of your condition. Left axis deviation can be seen in various conditions, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block and even inferior wall myocardial infarction. Early repolarisation refers to ST segment elevation with no underlying cause.
