I'm feeling a bit worried about my chest. I had covid a couple of months back and recovered, but this past week, I've been experiencing some tightness there. I had an ECG done and it came out normal, but I'm still concerned. Could you please take a look at my X-ray and let me know if everything seems okay?

View allMy mom had an angioplasty about a month and a half ago and shes got a stent now. Just wondering, she started having this itchiness and rash on her calves last week which is a bit better now. Could this be some sort of reaction to the stent or maybe the meds? And if it is, is there anything we can do to help ease it?

Been dealing with heart palpitations for about 3 weeks now and it's starting to worry me a bit. I'm taking hypertension meds and Prozac at 10mg. I've had these palpitations before, around 2 weeks, but they went away and my doctor said everything was fine with my heart then. Any thoughts on what might be going on or if there's something else I should consider? Should I be concerned this time?

I'm experiencing a fast heart rate between 130-150 beats per minute, even though I'm not feeling anxious or tense. I recently had a 2D echo, and it came back normal. Could you let me know what medicine I could take to manage this when my heart rate spikes, and what might be causing it?
When your heart rate increases significantly despite not feeling anxious or tense, it could be due to a condition called tachycardia. In such cases, you can use a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol. The usual dosage for Metoprolol in this case would be 25-50mg orally, which can help slow down your heart rate and reduce the workload on your heart. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.
