I'm 19 and I've been feeling my heart skip a beat for a few seconds, along with a feeling of heaviness in my chest. My ECG and sinus rhythm came back normal, but I can't help but worry if this is something to be concerned about, especially since I have anxiety issues. What do you think?

These symptoms can be related to your anxiety issues. However, if you are experiencing skipped heartbeats and chest heaviness, it is important to rule out any underlying cardiac issues. Since your ECG and sinus rhythm are normal, you may benefit from medications like Propranolol (Inderal) to help with the physical symptoms of anxiety. The usual dosage for Propranolol is 20-40mg taken orally 2-3 times a day. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and seeking therapy for your anxiety may also be beneficial.

View allI'm experiencing some pain in my left arm for the past few days, and sometimes I feel it in my chest too. I decided to get an ECG done, and it mentions a short PR interval and short QT interval. Could you take a look at it and let me know what I should do next?
Based on the ECG findings of a short PR interval and short QT interval, it may indicate a potential heart condition. It is important to further evaluate this with additional tests and examinations. In the meantime, to help manage the symptoms of left arm pain and chest pain, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief.

I've been tracking my blood pressure, and back in October, it was around 180100, but now it's dropped to 13080. I've been taking Telvas 3D, and I'm wondering if I should keep using it or maybe switch to something else. Why does my blood pressure keep changing so much?
Your blood pressure has improved significantly from 180100 in October to 13080 this month while taking Telvas 3D. This variation in blood pressure can be due to various factors such as stress, diet, physical activity, and medication adherence. It's great to see that your current medication is helping to lower your blood pressure. There is no need to change your tablets if your blood pressure is well controlled with Telvas 3D. This medication is a combination of Telmisartan, Amlodipine, and Hydrochlorothiazide, which work together to help lower blood pressure. The usual dosage is one tablet once daily, but it's important to follow your doctor's recommendations regarding dosage adjustments. Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly and continue with a healthy lifestyle to maintain good blood pressure control. If you have any concerns or notice any unusual symptoms, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
