I'm 18 and I've started noticing that whenever I get up after sitting, I feel this heaviness in my chest and sort of like a suffocation feeling for a few seconds. Should I be worried about this or is it normal?

I've been noticing that when I'm lying down, I can hear my heartbeat clearly, and it's even visible through my shirt and in my stomach area. At night, while trying to fall asleep, I sometimes feel a sense of fear in my chest and stomach. What could be causing this?
These symptoms could be due to anxiety or stress, which can cause palpitations (feeling of heart beating fast or irregularly), visible pulsations in the abdomen, and a sensation of fear or unease in the chest and stomach. It is important to manage stress and anxiety through relaxation techniques, exercise, and possibly counseling. Additionally, you can take a beta-blocker like Propranolol 20mg to help reduce palpitations and visible pulsations. Make sure to consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried about my current heart rate and blood pressure. Usually, my resting heart rate is between 70-80, and my BP is around 12585, but since this evening, my heart rate has jumped to 112-118, and my BP is at 14090. Up until a few days ago, everything was normal. I did smoke today after a long break and then checked my readings. Also, I've had a physiotherapy session with IFT for a cervical issue. Should I be concerned about these changes?
The increase in heart rate and blood pressure after smoking can be a concerning sign, especially if your readings were normal a few days back. It is important to monitor your blood pressure and heart rate closely. To help lower your blood pressure, you can consider taking medications such as Amlodipine 5mg once daily. Additionally, to help regulate your heart rate, you can take Metoprolol 25mg twice daily. However, it is important to quit smoking as it can have detrimental effects on your cardiovascular health.
