I've been having a hard time breathing when I'm lying down on either side. Could this be related to my lungs or heart? I'm feeling a bit worried. Can you give me some insight into what might be going on?

View allI'm sometimes feeling my heart beating in my neck and it makes me panic a bit. I've done some tests like a blood test, ECG, and 2D Echo. My cholesterol is borderline, but both the ECG and Echo came out normal. So, why do I feel my heartbeat in my neck sometimes? Should I get more tests to check if there's something abnormal going on?
Feeling your heart beat in your neck can be due to various reasons such as anxiety, stress, or even dehydration. Since your ECG and 2D Echo results are normal, it is less likely to be related to any structural heart abnormalities. However, if you continue to experience this sensation, you may consider doing a Holter monitor test to monitor your heart rhythm continuously for 24-48 hours. This can help in detecting any irregular heartbeats that may not be captured during a standard ECG. Additionally, a stress test can also be considered to evaluate your heart's response to physical activity.

I'm a 22-year-old guy and I've been diagnosed with sinus arrhythmia. My cardiologist gave me embeta xr to take for a month and after using it, I feel about 80% better. I'm wondering if I should keep taking the medicine for another month. I read online that sinus arrhythmia might not need any treatment and could just go away as I get older. Could you give me some advice on what to do next?
Embeta XR is a brand name for Metoprolol, which is commonly used to treat various heart conditions, including arrhythmias. Since you have already experienced improvement with the medication, it would be advisable to continue taking it as prescribed by your cardiologist. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations for the full duration of the treatment to ensure the best outcome. In this case, continuing Embeta XR for another month as prescribed would be beneficial for managing your sinus arrhythmia.
