I'm experiencing this kind of strong pounding pulse throughout my body. It's not really fast, just really strong. I can even see it in my neck when I look in the mirror and I feel it in my fingers and hands when I touch something. I also notice a visible pulse in my stomach and when I'm lying down, my head kind of bobs up and down with my pulse. Right now, even as I'm sitting in bed with my laptop, the pulse is shaking my laptop. This began shortly after I had some issues with anxiety and possible heart problems, but I've been to the hospital multiple times and they've ruled out any heart issues. It often gets triggered after heavy meals and this has been happening for about a year now. What could be causing this?

A really strong, pounding pulse all over your body, even visible in the neck and stomach, can be a concerning symptom. Since heart issues have been ruled out, this may be related to anxiety. To help manage this symptom, you can try taking Propranolol (Inderal) 10-20mg as needed to help reduce the pounding pulse and physical symptoms of anxiety. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

I'm really worried about something. I've been dealing with diabetes for about three years now and high blood pressure for over 15 years. For that, I've been taking losium and istamate regularly. But lately, I've been experiencing a dry cough and feeling gassy. When I went to the Baptist Hospital, they said I needed to be admitted to the CCU and they ran some tests like ECG and blood tests, which came back negative. They also did a TMT and an echo. During the TMT, I felt tired after the second stage when the speed increased, and they told me I might have a heart problem, suggesting an angiogram. I decided against it and got discharged instead. I'm confused and not sure what to do next. Can you give me some advice on this?
It sounds like you are experiencing some side effects from your current medications. The dry cough and gas could be related to the medications you are taking for diabetes and high blood pressure. Since you are experiencing symptoms related to your heart, it is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation. I recommend discussing with your doctor about switching from losium to a different medication for high blood pressure to see if that helps with the cough and gas. Additionally, you may benefit from a medication adjustment for your diabetes as well. For your heart condition, it is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to discuss the possibility of undergoing an angiogram to assess the blood flow to your heart. In the meantime, make sure to monitor your blood pressure and blood sugar levels regularly, follow a healthy diet, and engage in regular physical activity as advised by your healthcare provider.
