Just found this channel, this cardiologist explains things so well and breaks it all down. He also managed to cover so much, without causing confusion. Just found an amazing cardiologist that teaches so well. Thank you consultant cardiologist Dr Sanjay Gupta! Would love to meet you one day! You sir are amazing

I truly admire the way he explains this because it is clear and understandable. Thank you Dr. Gupta!

Thank you for advising us as patients to the reasons and relevance of troponin elevation and decline values. Your series of videos are a comfort and empowering to many who wish to manage their health by education as to risk versus benefit outcomes. It is as if you are a brother, uncle or father consulting with a family member as you teach.

Thanks for sharing Dr. Gupta!!!

I’m in the UK and I wish you were my Doctor, not many Doctors seem to care enough anymore and they don’t listen to patients, it’s sad that most people today, myself included get more help and information from people on KZread who care enough to make these video’s 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I had chest pain, pain down left arm, excessive sweating, fatigue, faintness back last year. They did my obs, ECG and normal blood tests. All came back fine. Luckily a doctor stopped me from leaving the Emergency Room. Sent for a troponin test and found I had heart damage and had suffered a heart attack. So lucky that doctor stopped me leaving. Was about to climb a mountain that morning too.

Do you mind me asking you if doctors have given you any anti inflammatory meds and/or pain medication? The reason I asked is because I got myocarditis two days after Pfizer vaccine but it’s been three months now and even with medication I’m still dealing with symptoms. 😢

Thank you. I first learnt about Troponin when in A&E resusc unit after SVT not resolved with the normal meds. After elevated T level, the registrar kept me in until a second later test showed T levels weren't rising and I was safe to be discharged.

I had the same thing. Woke up with bad chest and jaw pain, felt awful. Drove to hospital, they did an ECG and thought it was a heart attack (I was only 29)! After a week in hospital and every test they had, it turned out to be myopericarditis. Happened again a year after, although much less scary as I knew what it was. Hasn't happened since thankfully, two years in the clear!

Dr. Gupta, I wonder if this is something you would like to cover one day, but I think it would be useful for many patients (like mine) who have panic attacks with or without any heart issues. Of course, we may have someone who has heart issues but don't panic about it because they know what their problem is, but others do and don't know what their palpitations or other symptoms are caused by. For those who don't have known heart issues, every new panic attack is a "potential heart issue that just may have happened" in their mind. Maybe you could explain differences from a cardiology standpoint as you are so good at being reassuring and also able to explain various conditions in clear and simple terms. Thank you.

I came in the hospital for toxic metabolic encephalopathy. Troponins were elevated the first test, but on the next test, when my condition was more under control it settled back down to normal levels. I had no chest pain, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, etc. Only thing they did not do is a stress test because I couldn't have done it at this point anyway. They kept me in a bed and kind of made me weak.

I had what I thought was a heart attack during the night. I felt ok when I woke the next morning but went to hospital for a check.

Hello - I realize this video is a couple yrs old. You have been most informative. When you refer to "Elevated" can you expand upon a number? I have heard most patients experiencing a heart attack have readings in the thousands. Do you agree numbers lower than 100 should be of no concern? My readings taken a year apart are still around 56. *I don't know the correct form to show the measurements. Can you please give a rough idea of elevated?

Hi Dr. Sanjay! Thanks for all your tips! I'm from Birmingham!

Very interesting thank you. Could I ask if a heart attack has been confirmed by elevated troponin and ecg changes or confirmed in the “ cathlab “, why are patients routinely discharged from hospital with in about four days if they are considered a high risk of a big heart attack with in two weeks ? Also if troponin is elevated and ecg changes are recorded why are some chest pain considered only to have been an episode of angina rather than a heart attack ? Thank you

Thank you very much for all your wonderful informative videos. However I find the unnecessary background music EXTREMELY distracting and much prefer it quiet to be able to concentrate on your helpful words.

which troponin suggests MI exactly? C, I or T? And how do you rule out MI as opposed to Heart infection whilst noting elevated troponin levels? Is it mostly EKG?

I had very high troponin levels after 5th chemo. Then developed sepsis. But the high troponin was definitely the chemo. Interesting that you didn’t mention this. Still kept me in cardiology for 3 weeks...

Has Troponin test any role in post mortem? It seems silly to conduct all autopsy cuttings if one suspect a person died of heart attack? Also, in the case of aortic collapse, would Troponin level increase? Thanks for your response.

Please answer urgent!!!!! Dr Sanjay Gupta you are the best I have been following you for long time. I am 25 wt is 190lb ht 6-1" and I think I started getting actual afib attacks on top of my 2 year old palpitations problem. I do have family history my dad has tychardia/ afib. But I havnt been diagnosed yet. I don't have any morbidities. My existing symptoms include chest tightness and contained pain under left breast area and feeling a bit breathless. My doc said they are anxiety related. However Then this new attack happened twice this month once out of blue when I was working on laptop at home and second at work I got up to give something to my boss and my heart suddenly started fluttering no pain but I felt like passing out and breathless however thank God both attacks lasted only few seconds (before this happened at work, I was having a feeling of some tightness and mild pain in left side or rather discomfort I have since last 2 years, I have days when I am perfectly fine but they don't last long and i return to this supposedly anxiety state. My heart rate is usually around 80 at work but I have Samsung watch so sometimes I am having this anxiety like symptoms and have 70). My concern is will it get worse, is stress a factor, is the heart beating fast and pain or tightness I often get while working also afib but the attack was worse afib? Is it fatal should I take meds? Please answer because I get more stress by these....i got stress tested about year ago and it was fine. Ekg and cardiology visit was about 8 months ago and it was normal. I am planning another visit soon but I are the most humble and informative doc I have ever seen so asking you. Thanks p.s: please answer in light of your afib types video because I have watched that in which you explained type 1 and 2 etc.

While we wait for Dr. Gupta's response, pathologic Q waves on an ECG mark the presence of current or past cardiomyocyte infarction. Patients may have Q waves and present no symptoms, much long after having a heart attack. On Echo, you can look at a number of factors such as SV, concentric wall motion (akinesis, dyskinesis) and other parameters that indicated infarct to the myocardium

I'm a health coach with several years experience in functional medicine and it sounds like you are having PVCs. They are usually brought on by anxiety and/or eating certain foods. If it happens more after eating then more than likely that is the problem, especially after eating sugars or anything that contains sugars. The fix is whenever you feel the discomfort to make yourself burp repeatedly until you let all the air out of your stomach. This fixes the problem most of the time and it's caused by an irritated vagus nerve due to excessive gas. You can also take magnesium glycinate because if you are deficient it also contributes to heart palpitations. You can rule out most heart issues by simply walking up 2-3 flights of stairs. If you can accomplish this without being extremely out of breath and/or without ANY chest discomfort then you are most likely fine. Of course it's not guaranteed, but from my experience someone with heart issues experience extreme breathlessness when doing any type of physical activity.
