I'm wondering about something. I had an angioplasty last year and got a stent placed. Lately, I've been experiencing these weird palpitations every night as I try to sleep, but I don't actually feel them in my chest. It's strange because they're more noticeable in my jaw. My doctor prescribed Prolomet XL 25, which I've been taking for about four months now, even though I don't have high blood pressure. I'm really curious if this is something that's going to stick around forever or if there's a way to get rid of it. What's your take on this?

I'm wondering if having sinus tachycardia can be the reason I'm experiencing shortness of breath. Like, when I start walking, my heart rate jumps to around 150 bpm, and it also causes me to feel out of breath at night. Could these be connected?
