View allI'm concerned because my blood pressure is 140, and I've been experiencing strange sensations in my heart. Sometimes it's like palpitations, and other times it feels as if my heart might stop beating. I've already done an ECG, and it came back normal, so my doctor prescribed me Met XL 25 for my BP. Does a normal ECG mean my heart is okay? Should I be worried about these symptoms, or are they serious? What should I do next?
Your BP is 140 and you are experiencing a weird feeling in your heart, sometimes palpitations, and sometimes feeling like your heart will stop beating. You have done an ECG which came out normal. Your doctor has prescribed Met XL 25 for your BP. ECG being normal indicates that your heart is functioning normally. However, your symptoms of palpitations and strange feelings in the heart should not be ignored. Considering your symptoms and BP level, it is important to follow up with your doctor. In addition to Met XL 25 for BP, you can also take a beta-blocker like Atenolol 25mg to help with palpitations and irregular heartbeats. It is important to monitor your BP regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and managing stress to improve your heart health.

I'm really concerned because my ECG results came back as abnormal and it's showing PVC. Is this something I should be worried about? Would appreciate your insight on this.
PVCs (Premature Ventricular Contractions) are extra heartbeats that begin in one of your heart's two lower pumping chambers (ventricles). In most cases, PVCs are harmless and don't require treatment. However, if you are experiencing frequent PVCs or have underlying heart conditions, further evaluation may be needed. Beta-blockers such as Metoprolol can be prescribed to help reduce PVCs if necessary. Dosage can vary depending on individual factors, so consult your healthcare provider for the appropriate dose.

I'm dealing with this dull aching pain under my left breast, near my armpit, and it's been there for about two years now. It feels a bit better if I press on it, but it's still really painful. I was put on anxiety meds, but they haven't helped at all. What could be causing this pain and is there anything else I could try?
Ecg is recommended along with serum electrolytes..A physician and ortho opinion is advised to the patient..
