I've been noticing that every time I check my pulse rate, it's always above 100, sometimes even hitting 95 to 105. I'm worried about what could be causing this consistently high pulse rate. Can you help me understand the possible reasons behind it?

High pulse rate, also known as tachycardia, can be caused by various factors. Some common reasons for a high pulse rate in the range of 95-105 beats per minute include physical activity, stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, fever, anemia, thyroid disorders, and certain medications. It is important to monitor your pulse rate at different times of the day and in different situations to see if there are any patterns or triggers. If your pulse rate consistently remains above 100 beats per minute, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try relaxation techniques, staying hydrated, and avoiding stimulants to see if there is any improvement in your pulse rate.

I'm feeling these weird thud-like sensations in my chest that are really making me uneasy. I've already had a Holter monitor, echo, ECG, and TMT done, all of which came back normal. What's my next step to address this issue?

Thud sounds in the chest can be concerning, even if your heart tests have come back normal. It's important to rule out any underlying issues. In this case, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. Beta-blockers can help reduce the sensation of thud sounds in the chest by slowing down the heart rate and reducing its workload. However, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

I've been dealing with some heart issues after my open heart surgery in 2016 for ASD closure. Lately, I've noticed that my resting heart rate at night sometimes drops below 55, and it feels like my heart might be skipping a beat now and then. Although my 2D Echo results are normal aside from a Grade I diastolic dysfunction, every time I do an ECG at the clinic, it shows a high heart rate but with a sinus rhythm. I've been on Seloken XL 50 every morning and Telmisartan 20mg for the past month, and my doctor wants me to continue for another three months, saying it's just anxiety. I'm kind of worried, though, about whether there's anything concerning with the low heart rate. What should I do?
