I've noticed that my pulse rate is around 102, and when I have a fever, it jumps to 134. I'm a 34-year-old male, and I'm just a bit worried about what's going on. Is this something I should be concerned about? What might be causing these changes?

A consistently elevated pulse rate of 102 at rest and up to 134 during fever suggests an underlying issue, such as hyperthyroidism, anemia, anxiety or stress, dehydration, or an underlying infection or inflammation,

My dad had a minor heart attack on November 7th, and he had a bypass operation back in 2008 in the UK. I'm really worriedis this something we should be super concerned about given his history? What can we do to prevent this from getting worse?
Since he had a minor heart attack, it's important for him to follow the doctor's recommendations for recovery. In addition to any prescribed medications, it's crucial for him to make lifestyle changes such as eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking. Given his history of heart issues, he may be prescribed medications such as aspirin to prevent blood clots, a beta-blocker like Metoprolol to reduce strain on the heart, and a statin like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels. It's important for him to take these medications as directed by his doctor to help prevent future heart issues.

I'm a 17-year-old guy and for the past three months, I've been having really frequent heart palpitations, like 4 to 5 times a day, sometimes even 6 or 7. It's just that feeling of my heart skipping a beat for a couple of seconds before it goes back to normal. It happens all of a sudden and I'm wondering if this could mean there's some heart disease going on. My resting pulse is 104. Also, I've noticed my hair has started thinning a bit. Could there be some link between the palpitations and things like nutritional deficiencies or low blood count?
It is important to investigate the cause of your frequent heart palpitations and elevated resting pulse rate. One possible connection between your symptoms of heart palpitations and hair thinning could be an underlying thyroid issue. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and testing. In the meantime, you can consider taking **Propranolol 10mg** for symptomatic relief of palpitations. However, this is not a definitive treatment and a proper diagnosis is necessary.
