I'm a 28-year-old male and I've noticed that for the past 6 months, my resting heart rate has consistently been over 100, sometimes getting up to 120. I'm really wondering if this is something normal or if I should be concerned about it. Is this something I need to get checked out?

I'm worried because I've noticed that my heartbeat seems irregular over the past couple of days. It's almost like my heart has these hiccups that occur about 57 times a day. While I'm not experiencing any pain, nausea, or discomfort, it just feels really strange to have this abnormal beat in between my normal heartbeats. What could be going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations. Palpitations are sensations that feel like your heart is pounding or racing. In your case, it seems like you are experiencing occasional irregular heartbeats. One common cause of palpitations is stress or anxiety. However, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend you to take **Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor)** 25mg once daily. Metoprolol is a beta-blocker that can help regulate your heart rate and rhythm. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and monitoring. If you experience any worsening symptoms or new symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or fainting, seek immediate medical attention.
