I've been dealing with a higher heart rate for about 45 days now, and it's really starting to make me feel nervous and cause chest pain. This actually happened to me about two years ago as well, and back then I did all the tests like ECG and 2D ECHO but they didn't find anything wrong. Now that it's happening again, I'm really concerned. Can you suggest what might be causing this or how I should treat it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or panic attacks. To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Propranolol. The usual dosage for Propranolol in such cases is 10-40mg, taken 2-3 times a day as needed to control heart rate and chest pain. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

I've been monitoring my heart rate for the past year, and it's consistently around 110 beats per minute every day. Is this something I should be concerned about? Should I consider visiting a doctor to get it checked out?

A heart rate of 110 beats per minute may be considered high, especially if it is consistently elevated. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to reduce your heart rate by practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises. If the high heart rate persists, a doctor may prescribe medication such as Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25mg once daily to help lower your heart rate.
