I'm a bit worried after seeing my chest x-ray results. It mentions mild bilateral perihilar and basal congestion along with borderline cardiomegaly. Can you explain what this means, and how I might be able to treat it or manage the symptoms?

View allI've been tracking my pulse rate and it usually falls between 44 to 60 beats per minute. Sometimes I experience a bit of chest pain but my doctor mentioned it's just gas. My blood pressure ranges between 120 to 140 over 80 to 90. Should I be worried about these pulse rates or the chest pain?
Your pulse rate of 44 to 60 beats per minute is considered bradycardia, which is a heart rate that is slower than normal. Since you are also experiencing chest pain, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend you to take Aspirin 81mg once a day to prevent any clot formation in the heart. Also, you can take Metoprolol 25mg once a day to help regulate your heart rate. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

Is it normal for my heart rate to drop below 50 when I'm in deep sleep? I've noticed my heart rate goes down to around 45 while sleeping, and it's usually around 55 when I'm just resting. Should I be concerned about this?
Yes, it is normal for the heart rate to decrease during deep sleep. A heart rate of around 45 during deep sleep and 55 at rest is within the normal range for many adults. There is no need to be concerned about this unless you are experiencing symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, or chest pain.
