It's understandable to feel concerned when experiencing discomfort in your chest area. Symptoms like pain or pressure could indicate various conditions, including angina. It's essential to consult a cardiologist for proper evaluation and diagnosis. They may recommend tests such as an ECG, stress test, or echocardiogram. These can help determine the cause of your symptoms. Treatment options may include lifestyle changes, medications, or procedures, depending on the diagnosis. Discuss financial concerns with your doctor, as many clinics offer sliding scale fees or payment plans.

Echogenic focus seen in left ventricle massuring approximately 2.9mm it's normal?
Female | 26
You have an echogenic focus measuring 2.9 mm in the left ventricle - this is often a meaningless discovery that isn’t associated with symptoms. This can happen when there are tiny deposits inside the heart muscle. The heart is still by all means okay with it. Always remember to check it during the regularly scheduled visits to make certain that everything is within normal limits.

Male | 36
Ok. Actually the procedure helps open the blocked artery and prevent future blockages. After cardiac rehabilitation and lifestyle changes are normally recommended to take care of heart health and reduce the risk of heart issues in future. Still consult your cardiologist for personalized advice.

I am 25 year old female ,recently had a echocardiogram . Report was showing everything normal except one finding - Mild thickened aortic ncc . Does it mean I have aortic sclerosis?
Female | 25
Mild thickening of the aortic valve is not the same as aortic sclerosis. Sometimes, as people get older, their aortic valves can get a little bit thicker. It’s usually not a big deal and doesn’t cause any symptoms. Make sure to keep following up with a cardiologist so they can keep an eye on it.

I was diagnosed with a ascending aorta 44cm but my doctor said I have no restrictions at all and it's not a anyersom confused thanks
Male | 53
A 4.4 cm ascending aorta measurement might be within normal limits. Your doctor has reassured you that there are no restrictions or aneurysm concerns. If you're still uncertain, discuss your diagnosis and seek a second opinion from an experienced cardiologist.. that could provide more clarity.

I recently switched medications from hctz to chlorthalidone. Should there be a difference typically?
Male | 40
Both HCTZ and chlorthalidone are used to treat high blood pressure and water retention. But chlorthalidone is known to have a longer duration of action and a higher potency compared to HCTZ. It is recommended to consult your cardiologist if you are experiencing any changes in your blood pressure or other symptoms after switching medications.

Sir with all normal heart reports DEcho TMT negative can anyone face cardiac arrest as some one told me cardiac can come to any one anywhere is it true sir please help..
Female | 33
With Normal heart reports on DEcho and TMT, there’s a minimal probability of cardiac arrest. But one should bear in mind that cardiac arrest may happen to anyone, anywhere and even people with no previous history of their heart being affected by any illness. Any signs and symptoms including chest pain, shortness of breath or palpitations should be referred to a cardiologist for an evaluation.

Is 15 grams of propafenone dangerous?
Male | 32
Yes, ingesting 15 grams of propafenone is more than enough to turn into a dangerous medical situation. The dose of propafenone overdose has various effects including dizziness, airway difficulty, cardio palmar discomfort, and arrhythmia. Early recognition and prompt medical attention become crucial for an overdose case. I recommend having a cardiologist on board for more comprehensive evaluation and therapy guidelines.

Hi, I have been experiencing chest pain since Nov'18. Post which I have done 7 ECG test, a stress test and the results were normal. I was advised hyperactivity medicines, however the pain never stopped. I met a Gastroenterologist, who confirmed no issues. Than I met a cardiologist who suggested for 2D echo, did it, it was normal. Then I did sonography, stage 1 fatty liver observed. Than did angiography, no blockages observed, however the blood flow is slow. Now I am left with nothing... The chest pain still persists, post angiography I also feel numbness in my left arm. Don't know what to do. I was recommended following medicines post angiography... strovas Dilzem sr Pan 40mg I have already started following a proper diet. Avoiding junk food, extra salt, oil etc. This has started affecting my work and i am unable to deviate from the thought of the pain
Chest pain can have various causes, even if initial reports appear normal. Potential reasons include:
Musculoskeletal Issues: Strained muscles or costochondritis may cause chest discomfort.
Gastrointestinal Conditions: Acid reflux or gastritis may mimic cardiac pain.
Psychological Factors: Stress and anxiety can contribute to chest pain.
Respiratory Issues:Conditions like pleurisy or inflammation of lung lining.
Nerve Irritation:Conditions affecting nerves in the chest may cause pain.
If chest pain persists or worsens, consult with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation to rule out serious conditions.

Low BP and on spironilactone for acne. BP was 99/60 on Monday. Today at 6:30am, it was 89/54 and at 7pm today it was 95/58. Have off and on nausea.
Female | 21
You seem to experience issues with hypotension and nausea. Spironolactone, a medication you take, can decrease blood pressure. When blood pressure declines excessively, dizziness and sickness may occur. Stay hydrated by consuming ample fluids. Additionally, opt for frequent small meals. If symptoms persist, consult your cardiologist promptly for guidance.
