I'm noticing a visible pulse on the right side of my neck, and I'm worried it might mean somethings wrong with my heart. Could it be related to my thyroid issues? What other symptoms should I keep an eye out for, and what tests would you recommend I get done? Any guidance would be really helpful.

Why does my heart start racing for about an hour after I have lunch or eat a heavy meal? I've been on Concor 1.25 mg for two weeks now. My echocardiogram, ECG, Holter monitor, and cholesterol, including LDL levels, all came back okay. I've been diagnosed with panic disorder, but I'm worried if there's a connection here. Any insights?
It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of tachycardia after meals. Since your heart tests and cholesterol levels are normal, and you have been diagnosed with panic disorder, the fast heart rate may be related to anxiety or panic attacks. In addition to Concor (Bisoprolol) 1.25mg, you can try taking a medication called Propranolol 10mg as needed to help with the rapid heart rate. Propranolol is a beta-blocker that can help control the physical symptoms of anxiety, including tachycardia. It is important to discuss this with your doctor to see if it is suitable for you and to determine the appropriate dosage for your specific situation.

My mom has severe pulmonary stenosis and right heart failure, and lately she's been too weak for any physical activity. She's on diuretics and lanoxin but some surgeons said she can't handle open heart surgery. What do you think would be the best treatment options or medications for her condition
Given that open heart surgery is not an option, focusing on symptom management and exploring less invasive options like balloon valvuloplasty is crucial. Medications like diuretics and digoxin (Lanoxin) should be optimized, and additional medications might be considered to manage right heart failure. Lifestyle changes, such as a heart-healthy diet and regular exercise as tolerated, can also help
