Question

My dad had bypass surgery about 10 years ago but lately he's been having heartburn and his heartbeat feels irregular sometimes. What could be causing this and what should we do? (Note: This version keeps the medical terms intact, sounds conversational, expresses genuine concern, avoids robotic formality, and drops excessive punctuation/greetings while maintaining natural flow.)

Heartburn and irregular heartbeat in a post-bypass patient could be caused by acid reflux or heart arrhythmias. Consult a cardiologist to rule out serious conditions. Medications and lifestyle changes could help manage the symptoms.

Question

I'm dealing with anxiety and I've been getting treatment for it, but I still feel this mild, constant pain or sensation in my chest. I had an ECG, TMT, and an echo done and all the reports came back fine. What could this mean?

Question

I'm having some discomfort on my left side, and I've already done an ECG and ECHO 2D, both of which came back normal. My SPO2 level is also above 95. Can anyone help me figure out what might be going on?

Question

I'm trying to understand my echo report and I'm a bit concerned. It says my cardiac size is normal with some terms like Lvdd being 5.4 cm, La at 3.8 cm, and mild lvh. Then it mentions good lv systolic function and an EF range of 55 to 60. Plus, normal right systolic function and no abnormal wall motion. Should I be worried about anything here? Just looking for some clarity on what all this means for my heart health.
