I'm experiencing heart palpitations for the past nine months and have been feeling uneasiness on the left side of my rib cage for the last 34 days. Almost every day, I get this sudden, strong or late heartbeat sensation that really stuns me when it happens. It's making me quite uncomfortable. What might be causing this?

View allI'm a 27-year-old guy and I've been on high blood pressure meds for about a year now. Lately, I've also started taking Concor 1.25 daily. I've noticed that sometimes my heart rate seems to drop, and it's really freaking me out. What could be causing this?
I understand that feeling a drop in your heartbeat can be quite alarming. Given that you are taking high blood pressure medication and Concor (bisoprolol, a beta-blocker), it's possible that your symptoms could be related to your medication. Beta-blockers like bisoprolol are known to lower both blood pressure and heart rate, and sometimes they can cause bradycardia (a slower than normal heart rate). This can occasionally make you feel lightheaded or cause an irregular heartbeat. It's important to discuss these symptoms with your healthcare provider, as they might need to adjust your medication dosage or explore other underlying causes for your symptoms. In the meantime, keep monitoring your heart rate and blood pressure, and avoid any activities that could trigger these symptoms or put you at risk.

Doctors are suggesting surgery but I'm unsure about the pros and cons. What if bleeding happens again after surgery because of the actilyse injection? What could be the consequences? Are there other options besides surgery, and can this issue be fixed without it? I have an ICD in my heart from an operation three years ago, and now there's a clot again.
Discussing alternatives like anticoagulation adjustments or IVC filters with a cardiologist is key before considering surgery again.

I'm really concerned because my friend just had angiography and then angioplasty three days later. Now, due to complications, another angiography and possibly angioplasty are needed just three weeks after the first. Are there any risks with having these procedures so frequently?
Frequent angiography and angioplasty procedures can carry certain risks, such as increased chances of bleeding, infection, damage to blood vessels, and allergic reactions to contrast dye. Additionally, there is a risk of developing blood clots at the site of the procedure. To help reduce these risks, your friend's healthcare provider may prescribe medications such as Aspirin and Clopidogrel to prevent blood clots, as well as medications like Atorvastatin to manage cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further complications. It is important for your friend to follow the prescribed medication regimen and attend all follow-up appointments to monitor for any potential complications.
