It is important to rule out any potential heart issues, especially if you are experiencing chest pain. However, based on your description and suspicion of gastric-related pain due to work stress, you can start with an over-the-counter antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) for relief. If the chest pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation and appropriate management.

Accepted Answer

It's good that you have already done some tests to rule out any serious issues. Palpitations can sometimes be caused by anxiety or stress. However, since you are still experiencing them, it's important to consider other factors. One common cause of palpitations is caffeine intake. Try to reduce your caffeine consumption, especially in the afternoon and evening. Additionally, make sure you are staying hydrated and getting enough sleep. If the palpitations persist, you can try taking a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate. If the symptoms continue, it's best to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

    - Regular aerobic exercise (at least 150 minutesweek)
    - Weight management (aim for a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9)
    - Balanced diet (emphasize fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein)
    - Stress reduction techniques (meditation, yoga, or deep breathing)
2. _Monitor and Adjust Medications_:
    - Regularly monitor blood pressure and adjust medications as needed.
    - Consider adding a diuretic or an ACE inhibitorARB to enhance blood pressure control.
3. _LVH Monitoring_:
    - Regular echocardiograms to monitor LVH progression
