I'm 22 years old and my weight is 112. I recently had an ECG done because I was feeling anxious, and it shows PACs with sinus rhythm. I'm really worried about what this means. Can you help me understand if everything's okay with my ECG?

Premature Atrial Contractions (PACs) with a sinus rhythm can be a common finding and are often benign, especially in younger individuals. They can occur due to stress, anxiety, caffeine, or other stimulants. Given that you were feeling anxiety at the time of the ECG, it is possible that this contributed to the PACs. However, it's important to discuss these findings with your healthcare provider to ensure there are no underlying issues and to get personalized advice. They may recommend further monitoring or lifestyle adjustments to help manage your symptoms.

View allI'm experiencing a mild pain on the left side of my chest, and I'm not really sure what's going on. Could you recommend a medicine that might help? If it doesn't get better, I'm thinking of coming in for a check-up and more treatment. What do you suggest?
I recommend taking Acetaminophen 500mg for your mild chest pain on the left side. You can take 1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to seek further medical evaluation.

I'm having these weird palpitations and short jerks in my chest lasting just a couple of seconds, but it's not like they happen at any specific time. It really feels awkward when it happens, almost like my heart stops for a moment. What's strange is that even though I exercise regularly, I don't feel any pain in my chest. I've done ECG, 2D Echo, and Holter tests, and they all came back normal. So, Im really wondering, do you think I might have some sort of cardiac blockage? Are these episodes a sign of something serious like a cardiac arrest in the future? Or if it's not something major with my heart, what else could be causing these jerks and palpitations?

I'm getting these weird feelings where it seems like my heart is struggling to beat at times. Sometimes, out of nowhere, I get these intense palpitations that eventually settle down, but it's really unsettling. Another thing I've noticed is that just when I'm about to burp, the palpitations get much stronger and faster, which honestly freaks me out a bit. Any idea what might be happening?
These symptoms could be related to acid reflux causing irritation of the esophagus, which in turn can trigger palpitations. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Tums (500mg) or Maalox (5ml) to help with the acid reflux. Additionally, you can try avoiding trigger foods like spicy or fatty foods, caffeine, and alcohol. If the symptoms persist, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
