I'm feeling this weird sinking sensation in my chest every now and then, especially when I'm super stressed out. It's kind of freaking me out, even though I've had an ECG and checked my blood pressure, and both are normal. What could this possibly mean?

View allI was wondering if it's safe to reach maximum heart rate during running or other workouts, like getting up to 180 to 190 bpm. Is that okay, or should I be careful about something?
Exercising at a heart rate of 180 to 190 bpm can be safe for some individuals, especially those who are well-trained athletes. However, it is important to listen to your body and not push yourself too hard, especially if you are not used to exercising at such high intensities. It is recommended to gradually build up your exercise intensity to avoid any potential risks. If you are healthy and have no underlying heart conditions, reaching a heart rate of 180 to 190 bpm during exercise may be acceptable. Just make sure to stay hydrated, wear appropriate clothing, and stop exercising if you experience any unusual symptoms such as dizziness, chest pain, or shortness of breath. If you are looking to improve your cardiovascular fitness, you can consider using beta-blockers like Metoprolol at a low dose to help control your heart rate during exercise. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication regimen.

I'm a 34-year-old woman and recently got some abnormal test results back, and I'm really anxious about what they could mean. My doctor ordered these tests because I've been having dizziness and feeling light-headed a lot. My blood work from six months ago was all normal and I havent had any infections recently. I've never had any heart issues before, so I'm not sure what these numbers could indicate. Can you help me understand what might be going on?

I don't smoke, though. Any advice would be appreciated.
