Question

I'm a bit concerned after my recent open heart bypass surgery. I'm experiencing a burning sensation around my chest where the surgery was done. Do you think this is normal or should I be worried? What steps can I take to help with this?

Question

I'm 41, unmarried, and I'm carrying quite a bit of extra weight108 kg with a height of 5 feet 7 inches. I've got asthma and I used to take Formoflo inhaler 250mg and Asthalin rotohaler 200mg regularly, even Montek AB for a bit. But since I haven't had symptoms for a while, I stopped. Then recently, after climbing stairs, I had some breathing trouble and found myself needing to take deep breaths and yawning a lot throughout the evening. I did an ECG a week ago that showed everything was okayjust that my heart skipped a beat. My last master health check-up was 45 days ago and that was fine too. I saw a cardiologist because I had chest pain, and they suggested doing a TMT. I've also got GERD. So, my mind's been racing a bitshould I be worried about heart disease or fluid in my lungs? I'd really appreciate some guidance.

Question

I've been taking propranolol 10mg for my anxiety whenever needed, and it's been a big help. But lately, I've had to take it every day for about a week, and now I'm experiencing this sharp, stabbing pain in the center of my chest that goes to my back. I'm not sure if it's just anxiety or something more serious. I'm a healthy 26-year-old guy, and my resting heart rate is between 52 and 56 bpm, but sometimes it drops into the 40s. I do have a history of gastroparesis. Do you think this chest pain could be an issue related to the medication or something else going on?

Question

I'm a 33-year-old guy, and I just got all my heart check-ups done. The results for my ECG, ECHO, and TMT seemed fine, but my echo report mentioned something about trivial tricuspid regurgitation and trivial mitral regurgitation. My doctor said it's nothing to worry about, but I'm eager to start some physical activity like gym workouts and swimming to lose weight. Is it safe for me to go ahead with cardio and strength training with these heart conditions?
