Hello,

Will you please tell me about other conditions and reasons, which can
express or mimic heart problem in an otherwise healthy person? I thing
gas and heart-burn are relevant to this aspect.

Best wishes.

For three years, my doctors told me that my chest pain was muscular or
skeletal even though I was describing classic symptoms. My stress test
as well as all other tests and risk factors put me at the absolute
bottom of the risk scale. They were wrong in my case. But apparently
sore muscles or bones (joints) can produce symptoms similar to heart
problems.

than 0.85 (males) or greater than 0.75 (females).

It is only when we are at our hungriest (stomachs laughing and

Panic disorders, pulmonary embolus, gastroesophageal reflux disease
(GERD), esophageal spasm, esophagitis, for example, can cause chest
discomfort, and in some cases, mimic angina symptoms.

For a type-2 diabetic, it remains wise to address VAT as the proximate
reason for most if not all other medical problems.

I'm not sure exactly what the docs were thinking. Maybe previously
broken bones acting up. Maybe a pulled muscle that wouldn't heal. I
was a jogger at the time with a tendancy to trip/fall now and then. I
just accepted their diagnosis for awhile and was relieved it wasn't
heart related. I don't recommend that anyone to do that now though.

Thanks. Can arthritis in left hand joints, left soulder, frozen
shoulder, hyper/hypo-volemia also mimic heart type problem?

To add to my previous reply to your post;

Whether unclear motions, constipation, arthritis in left hand and
shoulder, in general those conditions which need heart and blood flow
manipulations can show heart problem type symptoms?

Sorry, I was unclear.
I accepted their diagnosis of "chest pain due to muscular or skeletal
problems" for three years, but they were wrong. I had Coronary Artery
Disease all along. So in my case, the heart disease was mimicking
"muscular or skeletal problems".

Not me. At least no more than what I've already stated.
Another possibility, I'm not sure my doc believed what I was telling
him when I was describing the pain. Since I had no risk factors and a
negative stress test (did the full 15 minutes on the treadmill, no
prob), and had never experienced heart problems, he may have thought I
just didn't know how to describe muscle pain or skeletal pain. I
really don't know for sure. But he knows for sure that I know heart
pain when I describe it now.

Hi Andrew,

you are fond of using some email-address on the general format of
heart...@emorycardiology.com,

and for some reason also of using multiple identities via a variation of
the numericals XX, it may be because you seem to have an issue with spam
filters or it may be to make it look more like the real thing, ie. a
real affiliation to Emory University.

You do seem to intentionally convey the impreesion that you are employed
by Emory's Department of Medicine and speaking on their behalf.

Interestingly they also use the addressformat nameXX.domainname.root. I
don't know whether they want to be associated with your tribal medicine
man approach to reality.

There sure are a lot of adjunct faculty. Considering that Chung did a
lot of work there, including his PhD and his fellowship, you would think
that they would want him to be a adjunct faculty and have medical
students rotate through his busy practice as they do their cardiology
and medicine rotations. It's a sad statement that they don't.

Well, at least Chung can make one more service to Emory ... If he checks
off the "anatomic" donation on his license application.

Eating less down to the optimal amount (32 ounces) is hardly tribal

In truth, have not pursued an adjunct faculty position with Emory
University.

They have known for a long time that the 2PD-OMER Approach is the good
work that GOD has prepared in advance for me to do.

Then again, you have known this for a long time too :-)

'Oxidation May Be New Blood Pressure Regulator
Scientists at King's College London have found a pathway which
involves oxidation. You can read about this in the journal Science.

Oxidation is a term we usually associate with free radicals and
oxidants, which are harmful and cause cell damage. However, oxidation
is central to normal cell function, say the scientists.

No.

Inflammation from VAT is completely pathological.

Can't Lactic acid can be intermidate to it? Pressure, heat and acidic
conditions can be sensation to nerves?

Do all above conditions are dependant of one type of vascular tone and
transcapallity movements--vaso contriction or dilation? I think, heart
beats/load are changed due to above conditions?

All three because inflammation is the nonspecific effect of damage
occurring at the cellular level.

I've read through a few of your responses to diet in general, if you
are a doctor, then you know that VAT is at least a little important as
it provides protection not only from temperature extremes, but also
the age old famine. Is it not also the dramatice loss of VAT which
leads a doctor to decifer potentially life threatening metabolic
disorders. It seems to me that you should be a little concerned that
your message of healthy as being hungry and hungrier as being blessed,
is bordering on "Long Live Ed" and "Ed is my friend"...in other words
I hope, for the sake of your medical lisence (if you really have
one)that you are not condoning behavoirs and a mind set which bring
people closer to Anorexia--because if you are then you are also
encouraging people into another extreme of body weight which also
negatvely affects the heart.

" Summary of Major Biochemical Causes of Pain:
1. Lactic Acid-increases Bradykinin, the most potent chemical mediator
of inflammation..
A Diet-Induced Pro-InflammatoryState (Excessive amounts of meat, sugar
and refined carbohydrate intake along with deficient quantities of
cold water fish, vegetables and fruits):

1. Increased tissue acidity- activates bradykinin a potent nociceptor
(pain) irritant

2. Inadequate potassium intake- causes alkalosis, ischemia and hypoxia
(reduced blood and oxygen supply)

3. Inadequate magnesium intake- causes increased lactic acid, platelet
aggregation and free radicals
http://www.eimed.com/nutrition.htm "

I think above is a good article on pain and inflammation. Lactic acid
is involved as per this article.
