I've had some tests done like ECG, 2D Echo, and a thyroid test, and they all came back normal. But still, my pulse rate sometimes jumps to like 120 or 140 and then goes back to normal after a bit. I tried beta blockers for about 4 months, but it didnt really help, so my doctor told me not to worry and said it's normal for me. I've stopped taking the meds now. Should I really not be concerned about these spikes in my pulse rate?

It sounds like you have been experiencing episodes of high pulse rate despite normal results on your ECG, 2D echo, and thyroid tests. Since beta blockers did not effectively control your pulse rate, you may benefit from a calcium channel blocker such as Amlodipine. The usual starting dose for Amlodipine is 5 mg once daily, which can be adjusted based on your response. It is important to monitor your pulse rate regularly and report any persistent high readings to your doctor.

It is possible that you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or other non-cardiac causes of chest pain.

I'm a bit concerned about my heart rate and blood pressure. My heart rate stays around 96 on average and jumps to 110 when I stand up. My blood pressure is usually around 13095. Should I be worried about these numbers, or is it something that could help with meditation?
Your heart rate of 96 on average and increasing to 110 on standing, along with a blood pressure of 13095, indicate that you may have some issues with your cardiovascular health. It would be advisable to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can consider taking medications like Atenolol 25mg once daily to help lower your heart rate and blood pressure. Additionally, practicing meditation can also be beneficial in managing stress and improving overall heart health.
