Posted on Mon, 28 Apr 2014
Question: Dear Dr, I am 31 year old male. I lead a very active life which includes runnng, walking , swimming, cycling for more than 6 days a week. dont smoke, drink very rarely and keep a good balanced diet. From Last year have been experiencing some uneasiness in the chest area and upper apdomen. Have gone through all cardiac tests, ECG (showed Sinus Tachycardia at 106 bpm , Otherwise normal ECG){{Have to mention that while doing the ECG the machine malfunctioned and they had to change wires all over me which left me anxious and stressed out) , Went for TMT ECG which came out normal and negative for Ischemia and normal BP and heartrate response, and the Cardiac Echo was also normal. Also went for Cardiac Enzyme tests in Blood which also came back normal. Can you please advice me if i am in normal cardiac health. ? I have attached my reports here Another point to note will be that , i am quite anxious at the hospital, which tends to shoot by heart rate high. Thanks XXXX

Brief Answer: yes, your heart is working perfectly. Detailed Answer: Hello, Thank you for asking. I saw carefully your history and exams and to my opinion everything is ok. You have nothing to worry about heart ischemia. Maybe your disturbances are related to anxiety, based to the fact that you become tachycardic when you go to the hospital. Best regards, Ermal
