Accepted Answer

Tachycardia is a condition where your heart beats faster than normal. To confirm if tachycardia is present in your report, you can look for the heart rate measurement. If your resting heart rate is consistently above 100 beats per minute, then it is likely that tachycardia is present. If you have been diagnosed with tachycardia, medications like Metoprolol (25-100mg) or Atenolol (25-100mg) may be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate.

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease). To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Esomeprazole (brand name: Nexium) 40mg once daily before breakfast for at least 4-8 weeks. Additionally, you can take antacids like Ranitidine (brand name: Zantac) 150mg twice daily before meals and at bedtime for quick relief of symptoms. It's also important to avoid trigger foods like spicy, fatty, or acidic foods, and to eat smaller, more frequent meals. If your symptoms persist, you may need further evaluation by a gastroenterologist.

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations. Since your ECG and echo results came back normal, it's good to rule out any underlying heart conditions. In this case, you can try using a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) at a low dose of 25mg to help reduce the strength and frequency of your heartbeats. It is important to follow up with your doctor to discuss this option and any potential side effects.
