Fluctuating blood pressure readings can be concerning and may be influenced by various factors, including stress, anxiety, diet, and lifestyle habits. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management. In your case, since you are also experiencing anxiety, it is crucial to address both issues. For your fluctuating blood pressure, you can consider taking medications like Amlodipine 5mg for high blood pressure and Propranolol 20mg for anxiety. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and consult with a healthcare provider for further guidance. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, regular exercise, and stress management techniques can also help in managing your blood pressure and anxiety.

View allI noticed there's a break in the lines on my ECG. Is that something to worry about? Also, could you let me know if there's anything else unusual in it?
Seeing a break in the lines on an ECG can sometimes be due to a technical issue or artifact rather than a medical problem. However, it is important to have a healthcare professional review the ECG to ensure accuracy of the results. If there are any abnormal findings on your ECG, it is best to discuss them with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.

I've been having some pretty intense heart palpitations, sometimes around 130 bpm, which really worried me. Our family doctor suggested I get admitted just to keep an eye on it. I ended up having four ECGs and a 2D echo, and thankfully, everything came back normal. Despite that, I still sometimes feel those palpitations. Is this something I should be really worried about? Also, I've been feeling some pain near my left shoulder blade and the left side of my chest just below the shoulder. Could these be connected?

Can extreme fear and stress lead to a heart attack or cardiac arrest in someone under 25, even if they don't have a history of heart problems? I'm really curious because I've been feeling super overwhelmed lately and it worries me.
Extreme fear and stress can trigger a condition known as Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, also called "broken heart syndrome," which mimics symptoms of a heart attack. In young people below 25, the risk of a heart attack or cardiac arrest due to extreme fear and stress is very low. However, it is important to manage stress and anxiety to maintain overall heart health
