I'm really worried about my cousin. Her heart rate is consistently over 120, and her blood pressure is averaging around 14080. What's strange is she doesn't seem to have any symptoms. Can you explain why her heart rate might be so high all the time and if it's something we should be seriously concerned about?

Question

I'm really worried because my heart rate has been staying between 100 and 130 for the past three months. Just a few days ago, I started feeling pain in my chest and arm. What should I do?

I'm having these heart palpitations in my chest, left arm, and left leg for months now. They get worse at night and right after I wake up. Plus, I often feel really tired and out of breath. It's so frustrating and starting to affect my mood. Do you think this is something to do with my heart, or could it be linked to anxiety and depression?

Question

I've been dealing with some pain near my heart, left shoulder, and back for the past three years. Theres a mild problem at C5 C6. I've had a bunch of ECGs and they always come back normal. With these results, do you think I still need an ECO or TMT? I'm just trying to figure out what should be my next steps.
