I'm 27 and dealing with a sugar problem, for which I'm taking Glimepiride and Metformin 11000sr tablets, two daily. Lately, I've noticed my blood pressure is 14090, and my pulse is around 92. I've also been experiencing some pain on the left side of my chest, so I decided to check my ECG. The results showed a sinus rhythm with a normal P axis and a ventricular rate between 50 and 99. There was also some ST elevation, which I've read could be a normal early repolarization pattern, but I'm still worried. The diagnostics mentioned "age 55" even though I'm only 27. Could this be a mistake, or is it something I need to be concerned about? I would appreciate any insight or advice you could give me.

I am sorry to hear about your health concerns. It seems like you are experiencing some cardiac symptoms along with your existing medical conditions. Based on the information you provided, you are currently taking Glimipride and Metformin for your sugar problem. Since you have mentioned that you are experiencing chest pain and have abnormal ECG findings, it is important to address your elevated blood pressure as well. I would recommend that you consult with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation and management. In the meantime, to help manage your blood pressure, you can consider taking Amlodipine 5mg once daily. This medication can help lower your blood pressure and reduce the strain on your heart. Additionally, it is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, and engaging in regular physical activity. Please continue to monitor your symptoms closely and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance and management.

I've been having these random chest pains for the last three months and just did a TMT test today. I couldn't go past 7 minutes, and my heart rate shot up to 190 really fast, so they stopped the test early. The doctor said it's nothing to worry about, but I'm still feeling a bit heavyheaded and stressed. I also have anxiety and my heart rate was already at 114 before the test even started. Does all this sound normal or okay?

It sounds like you experienced some discomfort during the TMT test due to your anxiety and elevated heart rate. Since the doctor mentioned that there is nothing to worry about, it is likely that the symptoms you experienced were related to your anxiety rather than any underlying heart issue. However, it is important to address your anxiety to prevent such symptoms in the future. To help manage your anxiety and heart rate, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The usual dosage for anxiety-related tachycardia is 25-100mg once daily. This medication can help lower your heart rate and reduce symptoms of anxiety. Additionally, you may benefit from an anti-anxiety medication such as Alprazolam. The usual dosage for anxiety is 0.25-0.5mg three times daily. This medication can help alleviate feelings of anxiety and reduce physical symptoms such as rapid heart rate. It is important to follow up with your doctor to discuss your symptoms and explore treatment options for your anxiety. Regular exercise, stress management techniques, and therapy can also be beneficial in managing anxiety and improving overall heart health.

Lately, I've been noticing something a bit strange. Whenever I lie down or sit back, I feel my pulse throughout my whole body. It's not constant, just every now and then, and I especially feel it around my hips and the back of my head. The pulse isn't racing or anything out of the ordinary, but it's definitely noticeable. Should I be worried about this or is it just a normal thing?
