I've been experiencing this strange feeling in my heart lately. Its like a drop or a rush of adrenaline, and it's been happening more often. When it does, it really scares me. It's almost like my heart skips a beat or slows down. What could be going on?

Question

I'm really worried about my grandfather who's 76. He was hospitalized twice because his blood pressure went up to 200100. We have the ECG from when he was in the hospital and his prescription too. Since getting discharged, his blood pressure is fine during the day, but at night it gradually rises to somewhere between 16080 and 18090. Does the ECG indicate he's had a heart attack? Are the medications he's on appropriate?

Question

I've noticed lately that my heart starts pounding really hard, like when I get up from sitting down. Also, I've been dealing with some acidity and constipation issues. My doctor prescribed me rabeprazole, but my ECG showed a heart rate of 112, which seems quite high. Could you help me figure out what's going on with this high heart rate?

Question

I've been feeling this discomfort in my left arm, it's not really numbness or sharp pain, but noticeable, especially when I'm trying to lay down and sleep. Plus, I've noticed that sometimes my heartbeat feels irregular for a few seconds. No sleeping position seems to help, and I just can't get comfortable, so I'm having a really hard time sleeping. Even after walking for over 2 hours, I still feel lazy and tired all day. It's even hard to poop. I'm getting pretty worried since I'm stuck with this and can't see a doctor because of the lockdown. Could this be something serious?
