I've been noticing that when I'm lying down, I can actually feel my heartbeat. Is this what's known as palpitation? It doesn't feel like that scary, pounding sensation, just a slight awareness of my heartbeat. Should I be concerned?

Yes, feeling your heart beat when lying down can be considered palpitations. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking propranolol 10mg once daily to help with palpitations.

I'm feeling really confused right now. My ECG showed something called inferolateral ischemia, but then both my TMT and 2D echo tests came back normal. I'm not sure what's going on, and it's making me anxious. On top of that, my cholesterol and triglycerides levels are over 240. What could be causing these mixed test results, and what should I consider as the next step for treatment?

I've been having this slight pain in my left chest for the past three days and it's starting to worry me. What should I do?
This chest pain could be due to various reasons, including muscle strain, acid reflux, or even heart-related issues. However, it's important to rule out any serious conditions. I recommend taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and appropriate management.
