I'm a 24-year-old male and I've been feeling this strong heartbeat when I'm sitting or lying down. It's like I can feel it in my stomach and chest for the past three days. I'm worried if this is something serious or just normal? A couple of months ago, I had some heart tests done like an ECG, echo, and TMT, and everything came back normal, including my lipid profile. But now my stomach seems to be moving with my heartbeat. Is this something I should be worried about?

based on your description and previous evaluations, it is possible that you are experiencing palpitations. Palpitations can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, or even certain medications. Since your heart evaluation tests were normal, it is less likely to be related to a serious heart condition. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try reducing your caffeine intake, practicing stress-reducing techniques, and ensuring you are well-hydrated. In case the symptoms persist or worsen, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. However, if the symptoms persist or become more concerning, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've had an echo done several times and each time it showed trace tricuspid regurgitation, even as recent as two months ago and again today. Is there a way to make this situation normal? Could it possibly resolve on its own?

Trace tricuspid regurgitation is a common finding on echocardiograms and is usually not a cause for concern. In most cases, it does not require any specific treatment and often resolves on its own. However, it is important to manage any underlying conditions that may be contributing to the regurgitation. You can try to improve your heart health by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. If you have any concerns, you can consult with your doctor about potential treatment options.
