Im a bit worried about my heart rate. Ive noticed that when I wake up or when Im sleeping, it's usually around 80 to 90 beats per minute. But once Im up and about during the day, it jumps to over 100 and sometimes even hits 120 beats per minute. Im curious about why this is happening and what I can do to manage it. Any advice on how to handle this situation?

It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of tachycardia, which is a condition where your heart rate is consistently elevated. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan. To help manage your symptoms, you can try using a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to help regulate your heart rate. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques, maintaining a healthy diet, and staying hydrated can also help in managing your heart rate.

View allI've been experiencing chest pain on my right side after eating dinner. It's not constant, and I haven't had any other symptoms like sweating or pain in my armjust the chest pain. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that might go away on its own?
Right side chest pain after eating could potentially be related to gastrointestinal issues such as acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It could also be due to gallbladder problems, especially if the pain is triggered by fatty meals. Considering your symptoms are not accompanied by sweating or arm pain, it is less likely to be cardiac in origin, but its still important to rule out other potential causes. I recommend trying some lifestyle and dietary changes, such as: - Avoiding large, heavy meals and opting for smaller, more frequent meals - Reducing the intake of fatty, spicy, or acidic foods - Not lying down immediately after eating If the pain persists or worsens, it would be wise to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation. They might suggest an upper endoscopy to check for GERD or an abdominal ultrasound to examine the gallbladder.

I'm feeling this weird breathlessness when I lie down, but it goes away if I turn to my side. I don't have a cough or fever, and I consider myself pretty healthy otherwise. Should I be concerned about this?
Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.

I'm trying to understand the differences between Cocor 5 and Inderal 40. Are they used for the same purpose, and if so, which one is considered safer with fewer side effects?
Yes, Cocor 5 and Inderal 40 are both beta blockers used to treat high blood pressure, angina, and certain heart rhythm disorders. In terms of safety and side effects, Inderal 40 (Propranolol) is generally considered to have fewer side effects compared to Cocor 5 (Bisoprolol). Inderal 40 is often preferred in patients with certain heart conditions or anxiety disorders due to its well-established safety profile. The usual dosage for Inderal 40 is 40mg once daily, while the dosage for Cocor 5 is 5mg once daily.
