I've recently been paying attention to my heart rate and I'm not really sure if it's normal or not. Right as I was about to fall asleep, I checked my Apple Watch and saw my heart rate was around 50-60 bpm. Sometimes it speeds up quickly even though I don't work out much. I think maybe I'm dealing with anxiety or exam stress. Is this kind of thing normal?

Just as you were falling asleep, a heart rate of 50-60 bpm is within the normal range for adults at rest. However, if you are experiencing rapid increases in heart rate due to anxiety or stress, you may benefit from a beta-blocker medication like Propranolol. The usual dosage for anxiety is 20-40mg taken 3-4 times daily. It can help reduce the physical symptoms of anxiety, such as rapid heart rate.

I've been experiencing this sharp, stinging pain in my chest and it seems to spread throughout my body. It's making me feel really disoriented. I'm getting a bit worried because it's happening more often. What could this possibly be, and should I be concerned enough to get it checked out?
These symptoms could be indicative of a heart-related issue such as a heart attack. It is important to seek immediate medical attention. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg to help with potential heart-related pain.

I've been tracking my health stats lately, and my SGPT level has been at 73, SHOT level at 37, and my cholesterol is reading 211 for the past week. I'm really hoping to get these numbers to a normal range in the next 4 to 5 days. Can you give me some advice on how to make that happen?
-It's important to take a gradual approach to improving SGPT, SGOT, and cholesterol levels. In 4-5 days, it may not be realistic to achieve significant changes, but you can focus on a healthy diet, staying hydrated, avoiding alcohol, and exercising regula
