I've noticed my resting heart rate has been between 48 to 56 for the past 8 months. Lately, I've been having chest discomfort, leg restlessness, anxiety, and feeling shaky, especially when I'm really hungry and my heart rate drops to 48-50. I've had ECG, echo tests, and more about 6 months and a year ago, and they were all normal, but they did mention sinus arrhythmia with sinus bradycardia. I've also dealt with GERD and vitamin B12 and D deficiencies, but I got treatment for those. I'm just not sure what's going on and why these symptoms are happening now. What should I do?

It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms related to your low resting heart rate and other issues. Since your previous tests have come back normal, it is important to address the symptoms you are currently facing. Based on your description, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try taking over-the-counter iron supplements to address any potential iron deficiency related to your symptoms. Additionally, you can consider taking Vitamin D supplements for your known deficiency. To help with your symptoms of chest discomfort, leg restlessness, and body shaking, you can try using a calcium channel blocker like Amlodipine at a low dose. This can help regulate your heart rate and improve blood flow. For your GERD symptoms, you can try using an antacid like Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid and alleviate discomfort. It is important to monitor your symptoms closely and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance and management.

View allI've been experiencing something really strange. Every time I get a cough, I faint for about 20 to 30 seconds. It started happening once a week a couple of weeks ago, but now it's happening every day. I'm really worried because I can't seem to find any doctor or treatment for it. Could you give me some advice on what I should do or where I might find help?
It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and to receive a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I've been dealing with anxiety disorder and was on Ciplar LA 20 for that. My pulse used to be around 55. The doctor recently switched me to Ciplar LA 10, and now my pulse rate is up to 90. I'm wondering if that's something to be worried about? My blood pressure is 12080 and my SpO2 is at 98%. Any thoughts on what this might mean?

When should I consider getting a TMT test? Are there specific signs or symptoms that would mean I need one? I'm a 23-year-old guy and just want to understand when it might be necessary.
A TMT (Treadmill Test) is usually recommended for individuals who have symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, or dizziness during physical activity. It is also indicated for individuals with risk factors for heart disease such as a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, or smoking history. As a 23-year-old male without any symptoms or risk factors, a TMT may not be necessary at this time. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, to reduce the risk of heart disease in the future.
