View allI'm 22 years old and my weight is 112. I recently had an ECG done because I was feeling anxious, and it shows PACs with sinus rhythm. I'm really worried about what this means. Can you help me understand if everything's okay with my ECG?
Premature Atrial Contractions (PACs) with a sinus rhythm can be a common finding and are often benign, especially in younger individuals. They can occur due to stress, anxiety, caffeine, or other stimulants. Given that you were feeling anxiety at the time of the ECG, it is possible that this contributed to the PACs. However, it's important to discuss these findings with your healthcare provider to ensure there are no underlying issues and to get personalized advice. They may recommend further monitoring or lifestyle adjustments to help manage your symptoms.

I've been dealing with palpitations since 2009, and although I've had some treatment, they haven't completely stoppedjust reduced in frequency. The doctor advised me to take Rivotril when they start, since they never seem to stop on their own. I'm worried about why they persist and if there's something else I could try? Could there be long-term effects if I'm taking Rivotril for so long? Any advice would be appreciated.
Since you have been experiencing palpitations since 2009 and have been advised to take rivotril when they occur, I recommend discussing with your doctor about trying beta-blockers such as Metoprolol at a low dose to help manage the palpitations more effectively. The usual starting dose for Metoprolol is 25mg once daily, which can be adjusted based on your response. Beta-blockers are commonly used to reduce the frequency and severity of palpitations by regulating the heart rate and rhythm.

My dad had bypass surgery about 10 years ago but lately he's been having heartburn and his heartbeat feels irregular sometimes. What could be causing this and what should we do? (Note: This version keeps the medical terms intact, sounds conversational, expresses genuine concern, avoids robotic formality, and drops excessive punctuation/greetings while maintaining natural flow.)
Heartburn and irregular heartbeat in a post-bypass patient could be caused by acid reflux or heart arrhythmias. Consult a cardiologist to rule out serious conditions. Medications and lifestyle changes could help manage the symptoms.
