I've been feeling my heartbeat in my stomach lately and it's really starting to worry me. Do you have any advice on what might be causing this?

This sensation is known as pulsatile tinnitus and can be caused by various factors such as increased blood flow near the abdomen. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for further evaluation. You can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for any discomfort.

I sometimes get these palpitations and it's really concerning. I don't usually have any chest pain or trouble breathing when it happens. I got some tests done, and my thyroid levels are alright, and the echo seems fine too. But my ECG came back showing a heart rate of 104 bpm. Is this something I should be worried about? And what can I do to bring my heart rate down?

An abnormal ECG with a heart rate of 104 bpm can be concerning, especially if you are experiencing palpitations. One way to help lower your heart rate is by taking a beta-blocker medication. This medication can help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises and avoiding stimulants like caffeine can also help lower your heart rate.

I've had this chest pain for about three days now. I did an ECG and the doctor wrote 'TWNL' on it. Does that mean everything's normal? Also, I've attached my troponin T test report and need to know if it looks okay. Should I be worried about a heart problem? Can you take a look at my report, please?

The term "TWNL" in your ECG report stands for "T wave normal limit", indicating that the T wave on your ECG is within normal limits. Elevated levels of troponin T in the blood can indicate damage to the heart muscle, such as in the case of a heart attack. It is important to know the specific value of your troponin T levels to determine if they are within normal range. For chest pain lasting 3 days and concerning ECG findings, it is recommended to follow up with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm really concerned about my mom's blood pressure. It's been over 160 for the last couple of weeks. She's currently taking Telma 40 and Cilacar 10, but it doesn't seem to help. Before she switched meds, she was on Amlogard 5 mg and Metosartan 50, but her doctor stopped those since she has ILD Lungs Disease. What should we do next?

Hi, based on your mother's condition of high blood pressure and ILD, it seems like her current medication regimen may not be effectively controlling her blood pressure. I would recommend consulting with her physician to discuss adjusting her medication. In addition to Telma 40 and Cilacar 10, her doctor may consider adding a medication like Amlodipine 5 mg (brand name: Amlogard) or Metoprolol 50 mg (brand name: Metosartan) to help lower her blood pressure. It's important to closely monitor her blood pressure and make any necessary changes under the guidance of her healthcare provider.
