I'm curious about my pulse after exercising. I did a brisk walk for about 3 kilometers, which took me around 30 minutes, and when I checked my pulse rate right after, it was between 130 and 135. Is this considered normal? My resting pulse usually sits between 70 and 80. Should I be concerned?

A pulse rate of 130-135 after brisk walking is within a normal range, especially considering your resting pulse is 70-80. As long as you do not experience any symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, this pulse rate is considered normal for your level of physical activity.

View allI'm a 75-year-old man and I'm feeling a bit worried. Back in 1977, I had a T-wave inversion and recently, I developed postural hypotension. My cardiologist checked my ECG, 2D echo, and TMT, and everything seemed normal except for the old T-wave inversion in V4, V5, and V6. He prescribed me to take Deplatt CV once a day, which I've been doing since May 2017. Lately, I've come across some pretty scary stuff about clopidogrel on the internet, and it has me feeling anxious. Could you please let me know if it's really safe for me?

Is Sleeping on left side bad for heart?
No ,sleeping on your left side, specifically, could help the flow of blood to your heart. When your heart pumps blood out to your body, it getsside.culated and then flows back to your heart on the right side

I'm really worried about this chest pain I've been having. It's been going on for about a month now, right where I can feel my heartbeat. It's been getting worse over the past few days, and it even hurts when I laugh or move my left hand. I did see a doctor when it was less painful, and they said it was muscular pain, but I'm honestly not convinced. I didn't lift anything heavy or suffer any injury, and it's just that specific spot that hurts. Could this be something more serious than muscular pain?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. Since the pain has been increasing and is now triggered by laughing or moving your left hand, it's important to take it seriously. I recommend taking a low dose of aspirin (75-100mg) as a precautionary measure to help reduce the risk of a heart attack. Additionally, you should follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and possibly consider an ECG to rule out any heart-related issues.
