I've been feeling something a bit strange lately whenever I lie down, especially on my side or stomach, I can actually feel my heart beating. And when I press my ear to the pillow, I can hear it clearly in my ears. Ive already had an ECG, echo, and thyroid tests, and everything came back normal. My blood pressure and heartbeat are normal too. I dont have any other symptoms, so Im wondering what this could be or if it's something I should be worried about. What should I do next?

I'm noticing that my heart rate sits between 85 to 105 when I'm just resting. I had an ECG done and my doctor mentioned I have sinus tachycardia, but thankfully no arrhythmia. I'm kind of worried, thoughdoes this mean I'm at risk for a heart attack or maybe a brain stroke? I'm only 19, so I'm not sure what to think.

In your case, since you are 19 years old and your ECG shows sinus tachycardia without arrhythmia, the chances of heart attack or stroke are very low at your age. To help manage your sinus tachycardia, you can try relaxation techniques, avoid stimulants like caffeine, and ensure you are well-hydrated. If your symptoms persist or worsen, you may consider beta-blocker medications like Metoprolol at a low dose under the guidance of a healthcare professional.

I'm really struggling with these palpitations. Even though all my echocardiography results and other tests came back normal, I keep experiencing them out of the blue while I'm just going about my day. It's starting to worry me because I can't pin down why it's happening. Could there be something else going on that the tests didn't pick up? What should I do next?

Palpitations can be caused by various factors, including anxiety, stress, caffeine intake, or certain medications. In your case, since all tests are normal, you may consider trying a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help manage the palpitations. It can help regulate your heart rate and reduce the intensity of palpitations. However, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.
