I've been having headaches and palpitations at the same time for years, but my ECG always comes back normal, so I didn't see any point in getting more tests like a 2D echo. Lately, these issues have gotten worse, and it sometimes feels like my heart's being crushed. The only thing that helps is coughing. I've also noticed my feet are swelling. My blood work shows high cholesterol and SGPT levelswhat does that mean?

These symptoms could be indicative of underlying heart and liver issues. The high total cholesterol levels suggest a risk of cardiovascular disease, which may be contributing to your palpitations and chest discomfort. The elevated SGPT levels indicate potential liver damage or inflammation. For your condition, you can start taking medications like Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) for high cholesterol, and Metoprolol (brand name Lopressor) for palpitations. Additionally, you may benefit from a diuretic like Furosemide (brand name Lasix) to help with the swelling in your feet. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been having this pain in the heart area of my chest for over three months now, and it happens about twice a week. I haven't been doing any kind of exercise recently. I'm starting to get really worried about it. Could this be something I should be concerned about? What might be causing this, and what should I do?

Ecg and chest x -ray is advised to the patient.
