I'm really worried about these heart palpitations I've been having for the past six months. Whenever they happen, I rush to the hospital. The ECG showed atrial fibrillation, and that's got me concerned. Is this something dangerous that I need to be really worried about? Also, my 2D Echo results were normal. Can you help me understand what's going on?

Heart palpitations can be concerning, especially when associated with atrial fibrillation on ECG. Atrial fibrillation is a type of irregular heartbeat that can increase the risk of stroke and other heart-related complications. It is important to manage atrial fibrillation to prevent these complications. For atrial fibrillation, you can take medications such as Dabigatran (Pradaxa) to prevent blood clots and Metoprolol (Lopressor) to control heart rate. In some cases, electrical cardioversion or catheter ablation may be recommended. It's good that your 2D Echo is normal, but it's still important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your atrial fibrillation. Regular monitoring and treatment are essential to reduce the risk of complications.

View allI've been experiencing a strange fluttering feeling just under my left breast since last night. I'm not sure if it's just gas or if I'm having heart palpitations, but it's really uncomfortable and kept me from sleeping well. Theres no pain, and my smart band shows my heart rate is 83 with a SPO2 of 96. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
The weird fluttering sensation under your left breast, without pain, could be due to various reasons such as heart palpitations, anxiety, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or even gas trapped in the digestive system; given your normal heart rate and oxygen saturation levels, try relaxation techniques, avoid caffeine and heavy meals, and if the sensation persists or worsens, consider consulting a cardiologist

She's been taking Telma 20 for the high blood pressure and Vertigon D for vomiting. Could you help me understand what's going on?
