I'm 32 and recently had an ECG done for ICL eye surgery my heart rate was around 120-127. I don't have any health issues, heart pain, or abnormalities, and my full-body checks since 27 always show a heart rate in the 120 range. Is this a serious problem, and can I still go ahead with the ICL surgery? I've attached my report for reference.

You have a consistently high heart rate around 120 range for the past 5 years without any health issues or abnormalities. This may be normal for you, especially if you are physically active or have a naturally high heart rate. However, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your elevated heart rate to ensure it is not due to any underlying medical condition. Considering you are planning to proceed with ICL eye surgery, it would be advisable to consult with a cardiologist to assess your heart health and determine if any further investigations or treatment are necessary before undergoing the surgery. The cardiologist may recommend medications such as Metoprolol to help lower your heart rate if needed. It is important to address any potential cardiac issues before proceeding with surgery to ensure your safety and well-being

I'm often finding my pulse rate hitting around 110 per minute even when I'm just resting. My doctor prescribed Betacap TR 40 and mentioned it might just be anxiety. Do you have any advice on whether there are other medications I should consider or any specific tests I should look into to better understand what's going on?

Your doctor has prescribed you Betacap TR 40 for your high pulse rate, which is likely due to anxiety. This medication contains Propranolol and helps in reducing heart rate and controlling symptoms of anxiety. You can take it as prescribed by your doctor. In addition to medication, you may also consider some lifestyle modifications to help manage anxiety and lower your pulse rate. This can include regular exercise, stress-reducing activities like yoga or meditation, and ensuring you get an adequate amount of sleep. As for tests, your doctor may recommend some blood tests to rule out any underlying medical conditions that could be contributing to your high pulse rate. These tests may include thyroid function tests, electrolyte levels, and cardiac enzymes. It's important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

I'm a bit concerned and looking for advice about stopping my Concor Cor 2.5mg medication. My doctor suggested I should stop taking it directly, but I'm worried if thats the right approach. Could you give me a second opinion on whether it's safe to quit Concor Cor 2.5mg permanently? My 2D Echo shows normal LV function.

No ,you cannot stop the medication suddenly since it may worsen the symptoms, physician opinion is advised..
