I've been noticing my heart beating really noticeably when I'm lying down. My ECG came out normal, and the doctor mentioned it's palpitations and gave me some medication for it. Any idea how long it might take before the palpitations go away?

The duration for palpitations to improve can vary depending on the individual and the specific medication prescribed. However, in general, you may start to notice an improvement in your palpitations within a few days to a couple of weeks after starting the medication. It is important to take the medication as prescribed by your doctor and follow up with them for any necessary adjustments.

View allI've just had an angioplasty because of a heart attack, and I'm a bit anxious about when I can start driving my scooter again. Also, Im curious about what kinds of exercise I can safely do now. I used to love swimming before the heart attack, and I'm wondering if it's okay for me to start that up again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
After angioplasty for MI, it is generally recommended to wait at least 1-2 weeks before driving a two-wheeler. As for exercise, you can start with light activities such as walking and gradually increase to moderate intensity exercises like cycling or jogging. Swimming can also be resumed, but it is important to start slowly and gradually increase the intensity. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized recommendations based on your individual recovery progress.
