I'm feeling really puzzled and a bit worried about these weird symptoms I've been having. My chest feels heavy on and off, and even though I've had loads of tests like ECG, echo, holter, TMT, and even a C-reactive protein test, everything came back normal. But then there's this pain in my arms and legs, with the left side feeling worse. In the last couple of days, I've also had some breathlessness. Eating and sleeping seem fine. There are these very brief chest pains that feel like an electric shock, just for a second. I've been trying to keep active by walking 5 km daily, but sometimes I find it hard because I get out of breath. What could be going on with me?

echo and angiography is advised,, cardiac opinion

I'm 22 and I've been dealing with some blood pressure issues. I was on propranolol, but it didn't seem to help much, so my doctor switched me to telmisartan and metoprolol. I'm a bit concerned about switching meds so quicklycan stopping one and starting another suddenly cause problems? Also, since I'm pretty young, are these medications going to have any negative effects on me? I think my BP might be more of a "white coat" issue than a constant problem. What do you think?

I've recently had an echo done, and it showed grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I'm a bit concerned and wondering if this is something serious. Should I see a cardiologist about it, or is it a common finding that's usually not a big deal?

It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. Treatment may include lifestyle modifications and medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril (5-20mg once daily) or ARBs like Losartan (25-100mg once daily) to help improve heart function and symptoms. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is recommended to monitor your condition.
