I'm 23 and had some tests done recently where my ECG and ECHO came back normal, but my QRS duration was 98ms. I'm kind of worried about whether this might have any implications for my health in the future. Can you explain if this is something I should be concerned about?

QRS duration of 98ms is considered to be within normal limits for adults. It is unlikely to cause any issues in the future. No specific treatment is needed for this. Just continue to follow up with your healthcare provider for routine check-ups.

I've been noticing that my heart often beats really strongly, and this has been going on for several years now. Last year, I got an ECG and the doctor said I have high blood pressure and some other issues, recommending that I see a cardiologist. What could be causing these strong heartbeats, and should I be concerned about the high blood pressure?

It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations due to your high blood pressure. To help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking Metoprolol (brand name Lopressor) at a dosage of 25-100mg once daily. However, it is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management of your heart condition.
