I'm experiencing breathlessness when I exert myself and my heart rate seems really high. The recent echo shows mild TR, mild PAHRVSP at 45 mmHg, and a mild MR jet area of 2.5 sqcm, with tachycardia at 121 bpm. My hemoglobin and thyroid levels are normal, but I'm a bit concerned about the mild PAH. Should I be worried about this and check in with a doctor?

Yes, mild pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) should be followed up by a doctor, especially since you are experiencing breathlessness on exertion and have a high heart rate. Treatment for PAH may include medications such as sildenafil (Revatio) or tadalafil (Adcirca) to help lower the blood pressure in the lungs. It is important to monitor and manage PAH to prevent further complications.

View allI've noticed that my heart rate has been fluctuating between 92 and 104 over the past couple of days, and I'm starting to get worried. I haven't been sleeping well and have been feeling really bloated too. Should I be concerned and see a doctor?
Not sleeping well and feeling bloated since 2 days. It is important to monitor your heart rate and symptoms closely. For elevated heart rate and trouble sleeping, you can try taking **Metoprolol** 25mg once daily to help lower your heart rate and improve sleep quality. Additionally, for bloating, you can try **Simethicone** 125mg after meals to help relieve bloating symptoms. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid foods that may exacerbate bloating.

I've been experiencing these weird moments where I feel like I skip a breath or it just goes shallow for a quick second and then goes back to normal. It's kind of freaking me out. I had an ECG done and it turned out normal, except for some Tachycardia, but that was probably just because I got panicked while lying there. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that's relatively common and not serious?
Random shallow breathing or skipped breaths, despite normal ECG results, may indicate: Potential Causes 1. Anxiety or stress 2. Panic attacks 3. Hyperventilation syndrome 4. Respiratory issues (asthma, COPD) 5. Cardiac arrhythmias (although ECG was normal) 6. Sleep apnea 7. Neurological conditions (e.g., epilepsy, multiple sclerosis) Next Steps 1. Consult a cardiologist or pulmonologist
