I'm noticing that my heart starts racing whenever I eat, drink water, or even when I pass urine. It almost feels like I'm anxious all the time. I also have issues with gas and cervical spondylitis. Could these conditions be related to my increased heart rate?

It is possible that your gas problem and cervical spondylitis may be contributing to your increased heart rate. Gas problems can sometimes lead to bloating and discomfort, which can stimulate the vagus nerve and result in changes in heart rate. Additionally, cervical spondylitis, which affects the neck and spine, can sometimes cause compression of nerves that regulate heart rate, potentially leading to an increase in heart rate. To help with your symptoms, you can try taking medications like Pantoprazole for gas problems and Gabapentin for cervical spondylitis. Additionally, you can consider using medications like Propranolol to help control your heart rate during episodes of increased anxiety or discomfort. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

View allI'm a 20-year-old guy, and I've been dealing with some health stuff thats freaking me out a bit. Out of nowhere, Ill get hit with high blood pressure, anxiety, and then it just snowballs into feeling nauseous, sweating, and I start having trouble breathing. It's really unsettling, and Im starting to worry. What do you think could be going on, and what should I do about it?
You can take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) for high blood pressure and anxiety. The recommended dosage is 25-100 mg per day. For nausea, you can take Ondansetron (brand name: Zofran) 4-8 mg every 8 hours as needed. Additionally, you can use Albuterol inhaler (brand name: ProAir) for breathlessness as needed. It is important to monitor your symptoms closely and follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really curious and a bit worried about how long someone with RHD can live when they're on penicillin treatment. I started taking Penidure injections when I was just 10 years old and I'm still on them. I was wondering if it's okay to switch to Pentides tablets instead. Also, do people with RHD tend to have a lot of issues after getting married?
RHD patients can survive with treatment with penicillin for a long time, often throughout their lifetime to prevent complications such as rheumatic fever. - The duration of penicillin treatment varies depending on the individual's condition, but it is commonly recommended to be taken continuously to prevent recurrent infections. - Penidure injection is a common form of penicillin used for RHD treatment. As a substitute, Pentides tablets can be taken. The usual dosage of Pentides tablets for RHD treatment is 300 mg once a month. - RHD patients may face complications after marriage if they do not continue with their penicillin prophylaxis, as the risk of recurrent rheumatic fever increases with inadequate treatment. Regular follow-ups with a healthcare provider are important to monitor the condition and adjust treatment as needed.

I've just had a 2D echo because I was experiencing chest pain, and I'm currently breastfeeding. Could you take a look at the results? I'm really worried about whether mild TR is something to be concerned about. Would love your insight on this situation.
Mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common finding in many people and is often not a cause for concern. However, since you are experiencing chest pain and are a breastfeeding mother, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for chest pain relief.
