I'm often finding my pulse rate hitting around 110 per minute even when I'm just resting. My doctor prescribed Betacap TR 40 and mentioned it might just be anxiety. Do you have any advice on whether there are other medications I should consider or any specific tests I should look into to better understand what's going on?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Your doctor has prescribed you Betacap TR 40 for your high pulse rate, which is likely due to anxiety. This medication contains Propranolol and helps in reducing heart rate and controlling symptoms of anxiety. You can take it as prescribed by your doctor. In addition to medication, you may also consider some lifestyle modifications to help manage anxiety and lower your pulse rate. This can include regular exercise, stress-reducing activities like yoga or meditation, and ensuring you get an adequate amount of sleep. As for tests, your doctor may recommend some blood tests to rule out any underlying medical conditions that could be contributing to your high pulse rate. These tests may include thyroid function tests, electrolyte levels, and cardiac enzymes. It's important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

View allI'm looking over my recent ECG report and I'm a bit worried about understanding it. It shows various measurements like QRS 84ms, QTQTcB 360439 ms, PR 148ms, and more stuff like that. I'm not sure if anything seems off, especially with these values like P 92ms and RRPP 672650 ms, and how they all add up. Also, theres something about Sokolow 1.3mVNK from 13 May. Could you explain what these all mean and if I should be concerned about anything unusual here?

I'm experiencing palpitations on the right side of my chest, and my 2D echo results came back normal. Can you help me understand what's causing this?
Since your 2D Echo results are normal, the palpitations may not be directly related to a heart condition. I recommend trying to reduce stress and anxiety through relaxation techniques. Additionally, limiting caffeine intake and staying hydrated can also help. If the palpitations persist or worsen, you may consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a low dose under the guidance of a healthcare provider.

I'm really worried because I was just sitting and out of nowhere, I felt a shock in my chest. My legs suddenly went cold, and I started vomiting something that tasted like acid. I have all my reports with me. Does this sound like something serious?
Sudden sensations of a shock in the heart, cold legs, and vomiting acid are concerning symptoms that should be promptly evaluated by a healthcare provider. While your recent 2D echo, TMT, and chest X-ray are normal, the acute nature of these symptoms, especially the feeling of a heart shock and cold legs, could indicate a serious condition such as a cardiac event or a severe gastrointestinal issue like a stomach acid reflux or esophageal spasm. It is crucial to seek immediate medical attention to rule out any potentially serious conditions. Your healthcare provider may recommend additional diagnostic tests, such as an electrocardiogram (ECG) if not already done, blood tests, or an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy to determine the cause of your symptoms.
