Most healthy people can eat up to seven eggs a week without increasing their risk of heart disease. Some studies have shown that this level of egg consumption may even help prevent certain types of stroke.

Question

I've read that a normal resting heart rate is between 60-100, but mine usually stays around 53-55. I'm 45 years old, and I've been on blood pressure medication for 25 years now. At the moment, I'm taking Metoprolol 25 in the morning and Telday 40 at night. My ECG results were normal, but my echocardiogram showed normal results with reduced diastolic compliance. Should I be worried about my heart rate?

Question

I'm a 27-year-old female and my heart rate seems unusually high, usually over 100, sometimes even reaching 130 beats per minute, even when I'm resting. All my tests, like Spo2, ESR, vitamin levels, thyroid, lipid, and many more have come back normal, including the NT-proBNP. But I just can't shake off this feeling of worry about my heart. The doctors didn't seem to focus much on the heartbeats, though, and asked me to get an MRI spine for my pain. I often experience upper back pain, a heavy feeling in my head, shortness of breath, and sometimes pain in my left breast and shoulder blade. It's less when I'm in bed but gets severe when I'm sitting or working. With my heart rate always on the high side at my age, is this something to be concerned about? Also, why did my doctor order an MRI and not more heart-related tests?

Question

I'm really concerned because I have a history of minoxidil poisoning and now I'm experiencing chest pain even when I'm just resting. I also feel like my heart starts beating really fast out of nowhere, like palpitations. I don't have a smoking history, so I'm not sure what's causing this. Could this be related to the past poisoning, or should I be worried about something else?
