I stood up quickly and felt a sharp pain in my chest for just a second, and then a few seconds after that, I got chest pain that lasted for about 5 minutes. Could this be something to do with my heart?

View allI'm really worried right now because my mom just got her test results back and it shows she has a negative troponin test. I'm not sure what this means for her health. Can you please explain what steps we should take next or what we need to watch out for? Would really appreciate some advice on this.
Having a negative Trop T test indicates that there are no signs of a heart attack. It is a good sign. However, further evaluation may be needed to determine the cause of her symptoms. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I'm a 46-year-old guy who's a bit on the heavier side. I've always been healthy, but lately, they've told me I've got hypertension. I'm not a fan of allopathic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term side effects. Do you have any natural treatment options for dealing with hypertension?

I'm really concerned about my heart rate because it's usually around 100 or more whether I'm just sitting, walking, or doing anything else. I've been using my Fitbit to track it, and I also have an Omron BP machine at home that often shows it going over 100, sometimes even hitting 120. I did see a cardiologist who said it was nothing, but I'm still worried. Can you help me figure out what might be going on or if there's anything I should do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing persistent tachycardia. One common medication used to help lower heart rate is Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor). I recommend discussing with your doctor about starting Metoprolol at a low dose, such as 25mg once daily, and then adjusting the dose as needed to help control your heart rate. It is important to monitor your blood pressure and heart rate regularly while on this medication.
