Question 1

I'm feeling really anxious today because after taking Bromelain this morning, my blood pressure machine has been showing an irregular heartbeat consistently. My BP reading is 133 over 80, and my heart rate is 71. I'm not sure if this is serious enough to warrant a trip to the hospital. Any insights on what I should do?

Accepted Answer

Bromelain is a natural supplement derived from pineapples that may cause side effects such as irregular heartbeat in some individuals. Since you are experiencing this symptom along with uncertainty, it is advisable to seek medical attention. You can take 25mg of Metoprolol to help regulate your heartbeat. If the irregular heartbeat persists or worsens, please visit the hospital for further evaluation and management.

Question 2

I'm looking for some advice. My husband, who's 29 and weighs around 92 kg, has been feeling a pinching sensation in his chest and some pain in his left arm for about 45 days now. He's a non-smoker, drinks occasionally, and his parents both had heart attacks before. Our cardio doctor suggested a CT coronary angio test, which is non-invasive. About six months ago, he had episodes of increased heartbeats, anxiety, and sweating, and we did a bunch of tests like the 2D Echo Doppler, TMT, and trop T, which all came back normal in September 2018. I'm wondering if this is a good step to take to get more clarity on what's happening with him. Are there any side effects from this test we should be aware of, and is there anything specific we should do to prepare before he takes the test?
