I'm experiencing heart palpitations and I'm really worried. I usually masturbate about 5 times a week and I'm constantly stressed out. Can anxiety and masturbation lead to heart palpitations or cause chest discomfort?

I'm looking at my mom's ECG and echo reports, and I'm kind of worried. The ECG mentions poor R wave progression from V1 to V3, and the echo report says she has grade 1 left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. I'm not sure what that means. The thing is, she doesn't have any heart issue symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath. Could you help me understand what these findings imply?

I'm really concerned because my ECG results came back as abnormal and it's showing PVC. Is this something I should be worried about? Would appreciate your insight on this.

PVCs (Premature Ventricular Contractions) are extra heartbeats that begin in one of your heart's two lower pumping chambers (ventricles). In most cases, PVCs are harmless and don't require treatment. However, if you are experiencing frequent PVCs or have underlying heart conditions, further evaluation may be needed. Beta-blockers such as Metoprolol can be prescribed to help reduce PVCs if necessary. Dosage can vary depending on individual factors, so consult your healthcare provider for the appropriate dose.

I've had all my tests done recently for palpitations, like ECG, echo, and blood work, and everything came back normal. But I still keep getting palpitations, maybe one or two missed beats a month. It's really been stressing me out. What should I do about this?
