I've been dealing with these palpitations for the past three years. I've gone through all the heart-related tests like ECG and 2Decho, and everything seems to be normal. I recovered from jaundice about five years ago, and I don't smoke or drink or have insomnia. But every time I eat or lie down comfortably, I start feeling this sensation in my throat and the back of my head. My blood pressure is typically around 12585, and my pulse is usually 100. But after meals, my BP creeps up to 13590, and my pulse hits 120. Doctors have suggested I take propranolol 10mg, but it doesnt seem to help. What could be going on?
Considering your symptoms and the ineffectiveness of propranolol, you may benefit from a calcium channel blocker such as Verapamil. I recommend taking Verapamil 120mg twice daily to help control your palpitations and regulate your heart rate. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can also help manage your symptoms.

I've been experiencing some chest pain on the left side, right above my heart. It happened for a few minutes, but then it went back to normal. The same thing occurred about six months ago. I'm a bit concerned and would love to get your suggestions on what might be going on and how I can deal with this issue.
Based on your description of chest pain above the heart that comes and goes, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. However, considering the pain is brief and has occurred before, it could be due to muscle strain or inflammation in the chest wall. I recommend taking a pain reliever such as Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area may help relax the muscles. If the pain persists or worsens, further evaluation by a healthcare professional is advised.
