I've been noticing something a bit unsettling recently, like my heart seems to be beating really hard, especially when I'm just lying down or relaxing. My resting heart rate is around 94bpm, which seems a bit high to me? Also, I can feel this strong pulse over my suprasternal notch and some weird tingling vibrations on the right side of my sternum near the carotid. Its almost like a sensation of anxiety, but I dont feel anxious at all. Could you give me some insight into what might be going on?

View allI'm dealing with chronic anemia and have been experiencing shortness of breath, and chest pain too. I got an ECG done, and it showed something called STT depression. Can you explain what that is and how worried I should be about it?
ST-T depression on an ECG can indicate myocardial ischemia, which means there may be reduced blood flow to the heart muscle. This can be serious as it may lead to a heart attack if not addressed. To help improve blood flow and manage your symptoms, you can take Aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent blood clot formation and improve blood flow to the heart. Additionally, you can take Ferrous Sulfate 325mg twice daily to help with your chronic Anemia. Remember to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit concerned about my medication. I had an ASD closure with a device on October 3rd, 2020, and I've been taking aspirin 75 and clopidogrel 75 every afternoon since then. Is there any issue with continuing these meds? Can I stop them? I just recovered from COVID on May 18th and have my echo report with me. Should I be aware of anything specific?
Having an ASD (atrial septal defect) device closure and taking aspirin 75 mg and clopidogrel 75 mg are standard protocols to prevent blood clots. It is crucial to continue these medications unless advised otherwise by your cardiologist. Stopping them abruptly could increase the risk of clot formation around the device. Given that you have recently recovered from COVID-19, it's even more important to follow your prescribed medication regimen as COVID-19 can increase clotting risks. Please consult your cardiologist before making any changes to your medications. They can provide individualized advice based on your current health status and recent recovery.
