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.

View allChest pain on the left side has been bothering me on and off for the past week. I'm dealing with a lot of work stress and only getting around 6 hours of sleep a night. My evening meal times are all over the place too. I'm not having any issues with breathing or moving around, but I can't help but wonder what's causing this discomfort. Could you tell me what might be going on and if I need to get any tests or X-rays done?
once get your ECG done as a screening for cardiac issues,if it turns out to be normal, General physician consultation would help you.

My dad just turned 50 and he's in good health overall. His recent routine stress test showed a positive result, which has us concerned. He was also found to have a Vitamin D deficiency, with a level of 9.8. Could this deficiency be linked to the stress test results? Should we be worried about one affecting the other?
Vitamin D deficiency can impact cardiovascular health and may affect the results of a stress test. It is important to address the Vitamin D deficiency to improve overall health. Your father can take Vitamin D supplements such as "Calcirol" 60,000 IU once a week for 8 weeks followed by maintenance dose of 1000-2000 IU daily. Additionally, he should spend time in sunlight and consume foods rich in Vitamin D like fatty fish, egg yolks, and fortified dairy products. Regular follow-up with his healthcare provider is recommended to monitor his Vitamin D levels and cardiovascular health.

I've noticed my resting heart rate has been a bit higher than usual, usually between 90 and 110. Sometimes it goes over 100, although not too often. I'm wondering if this is normal or if I should be concerned? I had an ECHO last month, and it was normal. At what point should I think about this as potentially dangerous arrhythmia?
An arrhythmia can be dangerous if it leads to symptoms such as chest pain, fainting, dizziness, or shortness of breath. The frequency of arrhythmia that could be considered dangerous varies depending on the type and underlying cause. In your case, with a resting heart rate consistently between 90-110 and occasionally above 100, it is advisable to monitor it closely. Since your ECHO was normal last month, it is reassuring that there are no structural abnormalities with your heart. However, given the increased resting heart rate, it would be prudent to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol at a low dose of 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate.
