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.

View allI'm a bit puzzled because my ECG and chest X-ray both came out normal, but I still occasionally get this mild chest pain that feels like it's moving around. It's not severe, but it's enough to concern me. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
"Since your ECG report and CHEST PA view report are normal, the moving chest pain you are experiencing may be due to musculoskeletal issues or anxiety. You can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for the chest pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may help alleviate any anxiety-related chest discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation."

I take concor 5mg for my hypertension and high heart rate. I vomited about an hour after taking my dose today. Should I be worried that the tablet might have come out, or is it fine to just continue with my next dose tomorrow?
In this case, it would be best to not take another dose today. Wait until your next scheduled dose tomorrow. If you continue to experience vomiting or any other concerning symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider for further guidance.

I'm a bit worried because I've been experiencing palpitations and when I took an ECG, it showed sinus tachycardia. My 2D echo test came back normal, so my doctor prescribed Betacap TR 20mg. After a week of taking it, the follow-up ECG was normal. Can you explain what sinus tachycardia is? Should I be concerned about any heart-related issues? I've also been dealing with anxiety for the past six months. I've attached my ECGs. Can you take a look and let me know what's going on? I'm really worried about my health.
Sinus tachycardia is a condition where the heart beats at a faster rate than normal, typically over 100 beats per minute. It is usually a normal response to stress, exercise, or certain medications. In your case, since your 2d echo test was normal and your follow-up ECG was also normal after taking Betacap TR 20mg, there is likely nothing to worry about. Betacap TR 20mg is a brand name for Propranolol, which is a beta-blocker medication that helps to slow down the heart rate and reduce palpitations. For your anxiety, you can continue taking Betacap TR 20mg as prescribed by your doctor. Additionally, you may benefit from therapy or relaxation techniques to help manage your anxiety symptoms. Overall, it seems like your heart is healthy and the medication is helping with your symptoms. Keep following up with your doctor for further guidance and monitoring.
