Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here...My mother is 71 and is experiencing heart fluttering, chest heaviness, slightly numb lips, her bp is 160/83. She saw her Dr. today who has scheduled some sort of test for tomorrow but should she go to E.R. I think she is anxious about it.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Her blood pressure is recorded high. So we should definitely rule out heart diseases for her symptoms. So take her to emergency room and get done ECG, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test) to rule out heart diseases. If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Stress and anxiety can also cause similar symptoms. So telling her to avoid stress and tension, be relaxed and calm. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your mother. Thanks.
