I'm 24 and I spend a lot of time sitting because of my job. My pulse rate seems to bounce between 92 and 110. Is it normal for it to be that high at my age? I'm a bit worried if it's something I should be concerned about.

I'm dealing with anxiety and I've been getting treatment for it, but I still feel this mild, constant pain or sensation in my chest. I had an ECG, TMT, and an echo done and all the reports came back fine. What could this mean?

I did all of my heart tests yesterday like ECG, echo, and TMT, and everything was normal. But today, my heart rate went up to 120 bpm because of anxiety. I got scared while watching a movie and now I'm just really worried. Could this affect my heart? My heart rate is back to 80 now, though. Could you please let me know if I should be concerned?

based on your description, it seems like you experienced palpitations and an increase in heart rate due to anxiety. Since your recent heart-related tests (ECG, echo, TMT) were normal, there is likely no immediate cause for concern. To help manage your anxiety-induced palpitations, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a low dose of 25mg once daily. This can help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations during stressful situations. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication. In the meantime, practicing relaxation techniques and deep breathing exercises may also help alleviate anxiety-related palpitations. Remember to stay hydrated and avoid excessive caffeine intake as well.
