View allI've been having these random chest pains for the last three months and just did a TMT test today. I couldn't go past 7 minutes, and my heart rate shot up to 190 really fast, so they stopped the test early. The doctor said it's nothing to worry about, but I'm still feeling a bit heavyheaded and stressed. I also have anxiety and my heart rate was already at 114 before the test even started. Does all this sound normal or okay?
It sounds like you experienced some discomfort during the TMT test due to your anxiety and elevated heart rate. Since the doctor mentioned that there is nothing to worry about, it is likely that the symptoms you experienced were related to your anxiety rather than any underlying heart issue. However, it is important to address your anxiety to prevent such symptoms in the future. To help manage your anxiety and heart rate, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The usual dosage for anxiety-related tachycardia is 25-100mg once daily. This medication can help lower your heart rate and reduce symptoms of anxiety. Additionally, you may benefit from an anti-anxiety medication such as Alprazolam. The usual dosage for anxiety is 0.25-0.5mg three times daily. This medication can help alleviate feelings of anxiety and reduce physical symptoms such as rapid heart rate. It is important to follow up with your doctor to discuss your symptoms and explore treatment options for your anxiety. Regular exercise, stress management techniques, and therapy can also be beneficial in managing anxiety and improving overall heart health.

I'm really worried because lately Ive been experiencing this weird heart fluttering sensation. Its been happening for the last 15 days whenever Im asleep. I suddenly wake up feeling unconscious, and its like I cant even express what Im going through. For a moment, I seriously feel like Im dying, but then after a few seconds, I feel okay again. It happened again last week and then today during the day when I napped. Its super scary and I dont understand whats going on or why this is happening when Im sleeping. Can you please help me figure out what this might be?
Hii, it sounds like you are experiencing episodes of heart palpitations or fluttering. This can be a concerning symptom and it's important to get evaluated by a healthcare professional. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate and reduce palpitations. It is important to follow up with a doctor for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I've been taking aspirin every day since I had angioplasty, but I'm concerned about the possibility of being allergic to it. How can I tell if I'm having an allergic reaction to aspirin?
