Hey, I went to the doctor and got tested for heart palpitations, but everything came back normal. I'm supposed to go back in January, but today I experienced heart palpitations for about 40 minutes, and my heart rate was at 130. I felt really hot and a bit faint. I'm on my period, been feeling super stressed, and my eating habits haven't been great these past few weeks. Is this something normal because of all that, or should I be worried?

I'm having some pain that I'm worried about. It's mostly on my left elbow, both upper and sometimes the inner part, and I also feel pain just below my left ear on the jaw. Besides that, I get this discomfort below my left chest and it usually happens when Ive got gas. I've had an ECG done back in August and everything came out normal, but I'm still concerned. The pain kind of comes and goes without any chest pressure or breathing issues. Could this be heart-related? Sometimes the pain hits my back too. My blood pressure is 127 over 79 and my total cholesterol level is 264. Do these symptoms sound like I should be worried about my heart?

Based on the symptoms you have described, such as pain in the left elbow, left jaw, below the left chest, and sometimes in the back, which worsen when you have gas, along with normal ECG results and absence of chest pressure or breathing problems, it is less likely to be cardiac-related. The pain you are experiencing may be musculoskeletal or related to gastrointestinal issues. For the pain in your left elbow and jaw, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen. For gas relief, you can try simethicone-based antacids. Additionally, for high cholesterol levels, you may consider starting a statin medication like atorvastatin at a low dose. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms. Remember to maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet to help manage your cholesterol levels.

I'm really worried about my mom. She had a fever of 100.5 last week and hasn't had blood pressure issues before, but her BP was around 100160. We've had some family stress lately, so I'm thinking that might be affecting her health. The doctor did some tests like lipid, fasting sugar, uric acid, and creatinine, and they all came back normal. However, her BP has consistently been 100150 when we've checked recently. The doctor suggested starting her on Olmecip. I'm wondering, is there a way to manage her blood pressure without having to use medication? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a healthy diet low in sodium, maintaining a healthy weight, reducing stress, and avoiding tobacco and alcohol can help in controlling blood pressure. However, in some cases, medication may be necessary. In your mother's case, since her blood pressure readings have been consistently high, the doctor prescribed Olmecip. This medication is an angiotensin II receptor blocker that helps to relax blood vessels, lowering blood pressure. The usual starting dose of Olmecip is 20mg once daily. It is important to follow the doctor's advice and monitor blood pressure regularly.

I'm having this weird tingling sensation and sometimes my heart starts racing. I got an ECG and my blood pressure was checked, and both came back normal. I'm not sure what to do next or who I should reach out to. Can you guide me on this?

That could be due to anxiety, or any endocrine disorder too,visit Physician for evaluation and appropriate management.
