I've been having these sudden chills or a cold feeling in my chest while I'm asleep, and it's been happening on and off, like a couple of times a week for the last few months. I already saw a cardiologist and did some tests to make sure it's not heart disease because I'm a 35-year-old guy who was recently told I have hypertension. Can someone help me figure out what might be causing this?

View allI'm really concerned because my pulse rate is consistently over 100. Could this be something serious? What kind of treatments are available, and are there specific precautions I should be taking to manage this? I'm really worried and would appreciate any advice you can give.
A pulse rate consistently above 100 beats per minute is known as tachycardia. The underlying causes of tachycardia can vary, including stress, anxiety, dehydration, anemia, thyroid disorders, heart conditions, and certain medications. To treat it, you can try relaxation techniques, stay hydrated, and avoid stimulants like caffeine. If the problem persists, you may need medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help regulate your heart rate. It is important to monitor your pulse regularly and consult with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been feeling this odd sensation in my chest for the past 23 days, almost like there's a light weight sitting there. When I stand up after sitting for a bit, it gets worse, and I feel a bit breathless with fear running through my mind. What could be causing this, and who should I see about it? It's pretty scary for me, especially since I just had tests like an ECG done last year for insurance. What do you think?
I understand that this feeling can be quite distressing. It could be related to anxiety, acid reflux, or even a cardiac issue, though your previous tests were normal. I recommend consulting a cardiologist for a thorough check-up and possibly an updated ECG, as well as discussing any anxiety or stress you might be experiencing. Take care!
