I've noticed that every afternoon when I try to take a rest, my heartbeat feels really high, and the only time I seem to realize it is when I'm lying down in bed. It's becoming a bit concerning. Is it normal to experience something like this, or should I be worried about it? Could there be any specific reason for my heart to race at that time of day?

This could be a sign of a condition called paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), where your heart suddenly beats very fast for a short period of time. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further management.

View allI'm currently taking Nexito Plus and Propranolol. I'm wondering if these medications could be affecting my ECG results? Also, I'm dealing with gastritis right now. Could that be related to or affecting my heart health?
The combination of Nexito Plus (Escitalopram, Clonazepam, and Nortriptyline) and Propranolol can potentially have an effect on your ECG due to their cardiac side effects. Propranolol, in particular, can cause changes in heart rate and rhythm which may be reflected in an ECG. It is important to monitor your heart health regularly while taking these medications. Additionally, since you are experiencing gastritis problems, it's important to note that Propranolol can exacerbate gastrointestinal issues. It would be advisable to discuss these concerns with your healthcare provider to ensure the safety and effectiveness of your medication regimen.
