Should I Seek Emergency Care for Chest Pain Lasting 3 Days?

I went to urgent care yesterday for chest pain. They told me that my EKG said that my heart might not be getting enough blood/oxygen flow on the right side, and could have been from a mini heat attack from smoking even though I’m only 17. Should I go to the hospital since I’ve had this pain now for about 3 days?..

I'd advise that you go to see a cardiologist very soon. Chest pain may present very serious issues with the heart, especially at your age. A cardiologist would further investigate the etiology by doing an echocardiogram or a stress test and then give appropriate management.

Good afternoon respected Sir / Ma’am I am 34 years old woman and tend to see that my pulse rate increases and holds for maximum 2-3 minutes and I come back to normal But Yesterday the same thing happened but the pulse was very rapid for over 15 to 20 minutes and had breathlessness also Kindly suggest what should I do

Female | 34

It is possible that the rapid pulse and breathlessness could be symptoms of an underlying medical condition. Consult a cardiologist to determine the cause and the appropriate treatment. Some tests like ECG or a stress test may require to determine the cause of the symptoms. After that only correct course of treatment can be started. Try to get enough rest, eat healthy, and exercise regularly.

What would it take for me to be able to have a lead pellet removed from the lymph node so rounding the main aorta of your heart. With MRI results show ing to be a sixteenth of an inch from said aorta. The incident had happened in the summer of 1998. I'll be 40 in a couple of months. I'm sick of being afraid to breathe.

Male | 39

I know you are worried about the lead pellet that is close to your aorta. In such situations, only a specialist can determine the best course of action. The closeness to such a life-saving place is really indeed severe. Chest pain, breathing problems, or exhaustion are some of the symptoms to look for. Seeking medical help right away is vital for a proper assessment and the recommendation of treatment options.

I am married to my second cousin. During my first pregnancy there were no complications nothing. My daughter was born with normal delivery. She was completely alright and normal baby. Completing her every milestone in time. But at 11 month of the age she got ill and the major symptoms were flu and difficulty in breathing thn she was diagnosed with MYOCARDITIS. And died after 1 week and was under treatment in AFIC (Armed Forces Institute Of Cardiology) Rawalpindi. I was pregnant at that time with my second child. My second daughter was born. She was also completely normal covering every milestone in time. She was treated in al shifa hospital throughout each and every test were clear till the 17 months of age. Thn again once in a while she suffered from same symptoms and diagnosed with MYOCARDITIS. She got treated in Al Shifa hospital Islamabad and expired at the age of 17 months.So now i need some expert advise what to do now. I am not getting any satisfactory answer from any doctor in Pakistan some are claiming it as genetics but some are arguing it can't be this because babies show no defects in any of there milestone throughout their life span. So any thing or any help regarding this is highly appreciated.

Myocarditis is a condition where the heart muscle is inflamed and can be caused by viruses, bacteria, or other infections. It is possible that there is a genetic component to this condition, and I would recommend consulting with a genetic specialist or a pediatric cardiologist. They may be able to provide more information about potential genetic causes and what steps can be taken to prevent it in future pregnancies. It is important to seek medical attention and advice from a experienced healthcare professional.
