I'm sitting on a chair, and my heart rate is around 94-95. When I take a moderate walk, it jumps to 130, but I don't feel any discomfort. This has been happening for about 20 days now. In the past, my resting heart rate used to be between 75-80. Should I be worried about this?

This change in your heart rate could be due to various reasons such as stress, anxiety, dehydration, caffeine intake, or even certain medications. However, it is important to rule out any underlying medical conditions. I recommend you to take Tab Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help regulate your heart rate. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated, reduce caffeine intake, and monitor your heart rate regularly. If you experience any chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, seek immediate medical attention.

I'm Sanjay, and I've been dealing with this small pin-point pain in my chest for the last two months. I saw a local doctor who suggested getting an ECG and blood tests. After the tests, he said my heart's fine and linked the pain to gastric issues. He prescribed Rablet D and Met XL. Could you have a look at my ECG and let me know if there's really no heart issue? I'm a non-smoker, non-drinker, weighing 59 kg, and I'm 158 cm tall. I've uploaded my ECG, blood test, and TMT 2D Echo reports. Can you help me figure this out?

As per your ECG report, there is no problem with your heart. The chest pain you are experiencing is likely due to gastric issues, as mentioned by your doctor. The medications prescribed to you are: - Rablet D (Dosage: 1 tablet before breakfast) - Met XL (Dosage: As prescribed by your doctor) Continue taking these medications as advised by your doctor. Additionally, you can try to avoid spicy and oily foods, eat smaller meals more frequently, and avoid lying down immediately after eating to help with your gastric symptoms. If the chest pain persists or worsens, please follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

I'm curious about my pulse after exercising. I did a brisk walk for about 3 kilometers, which took me around 30 minutes, and when I checked my pulse rate right after, it was between 130 and 135. Is this considered normal? My resting pulse usually sits between 70 and 80. Should I be concerned?

A pulse rate of 130-135 after brisk walking is within a normal range, especially considering your resting pulse is 70-80. As long as you do not experience any symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, this pulse rate is considered normal for your level of physical activity.

I'm really worried about my husband. About eight months ago, he had some chest pain, so we went for a check-up. They did an ECG, an echo, and a stress test, and thankfully everything seemed normal, but he had high blood pressure and his triglycerides were around 250. He's been on medication for BP since then, including Prolomet XL 50, Hytel H, Tonact D, and Nulong 5mg. But just yesterday, he experienced chest pain again. We went to the doctor and did another ECG, which came back normal. The doctor said it might be muscle pain and gave him some pain medicine. I'm still worried it could be related to his heart. Should we be looking at other tests, like an echo again or something else, to be sure everything's okay with his heart?

It is good that your husband's ECG results have been normal. Since he has a history of chest pain and high triglycerides, it is important to monitor his heart health closely. Given the symptoms of chest pain, it would be advisable to follow up with an echocardiogram (echo) to assess the structure and function of the heart. Additionally, considering his risk factors, a stress test or a coronary angiography may also be recommended by the doctor to further evaluate his heart health and rule out any underlying heart conditions. In the meantime, continue with the prescribed medications including Prolomet XL 50 for blood pressure, Hytel H for hypertension, Tonact D for cholesterol, and Nulong 5mg.
