I'm 22 and have been feeling something weird in my heart for about a week now. It's hard to explain, but it's like something is wrong near my heart. I can still walk 5km, run, lift weights, and eat normally. However, when I drink water, it feels like it's going toward my heart. Also, I have a slight pain in my right thigh. I'm getting a bit worried because I'm planning to go to the UK next month. Is this something serious that I should be concerned about?

Based on your symptoms, it is important to rule out any potential heart issues. The sensation you are feeling near your heart, along with the thigh pain, could be related to various factors. It is recommended to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a low dose of Aspirin (75-100mg) once daily to help with any potential heart-related concerns. Additionally, ensure you stay hydrated and avoid strenuous activities until you have been evaluated by a healthcare professional.

Question

I'm 22 and was recently at the cardiologist because I've noticed more skipped heartbeats. They did some tests like a TMT echo and an X-ray and said my heart's fine, but during the echo, there were some skipped beats. The doctor saw this and put me on Met XL 25, saying it's for long-term use. I've got a few worries thoughshould I be taking this medication at such a young age? Is it going to cause any issues in the future, especially if I occasionally forget a dose? My blood pressure is normal. Can you help me understand this better?
