I'm experiencing a really high heart rate, like around 111 to 115, and I'm also dealing with dry eyes and a loss of appetite. Could these be connected to my fast heartbeat? What might be causing all this? Would love some guidance.

A high heart rate, dry eyes, and loss of appetite can be related to various medical conditions. One possible reason for your symptoms could be hyperthyroidism, which is an overactive thyroid gland. In this case, I would recommend you to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan. In the meantime, you can take Propranolol (Inderal) 10mg twice a day to help lower your heart rate.

I'm 26 and have been experiencing chest pain for about a month and a half now. I checked my ECG, and it came back normal, but I'm still worried. Sometimes it feels like a pressing sensation, and other times it feels like something's moving inside my chest, shifting from the middle to the top, or from the left side to the middle. What could this be?

I recently had a fever and decided to get an ECG done. The results showed sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia. I went back for another ECG the next day, and it came out normal. Should I be concerned about this fluctuation?

Is my EKG normal? Can you manually check the QTc levels because last time the machine got it wrong? Also, I'm confused about what non-specific ST depression means. From what I understand, ST depression is linked to a heart attack or ischemia. I've had ECGs before, but this is the first time I've seen this in the report. Could you help explain this?

Regarding the EKG, I cannot check the QTc levels manually through this platform. Non-specific ST depression on an EKG means that there are changes in the ST segment of the EKG that are not specifically indicative of a heart attack or ischemia. It can be caused by various factors such as electrolyte imbalances, medications, or even normal variation. If you have concerns about the findings on your EKG, it would be best to discuss them with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and interpretation.
