I'm experiencing heart palpitations for the past nine months and have been feeling uneasiness on the left side of my rib cage for the last 34 days. Almost every day, I get this sudden, strong or late heartbeat sensation that really stuns me when it happens. It's making me quite uncomfortable. What might be causing this?

So, I've been keeping track of my heart rate and noticed that my resting heart rate is usually between 50 and 55 bpm. I'm a 20-year-old guy, relatively healthy, and Im about 6'2 tall, weighing 74 kg. When I do high-intensity interval training, my heart rate can spike up to 150-160 bpm. Is this normal for someone my age and build, or should I be concerned about these numbers?

A resting heart rate averaging around 50-55 bpm can be normal for a healthy 20-year-old male, especially if you are physically active or an athlete, as regular exercise often leads to a lower resting heart rate due to increased cardiovascular efficiency. Reaching a heart rate of 150-160 bpm during High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) is also within normal ranges for vigorous exercise. However, if you experience symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, or fainting, it would be advisable to consult with a healthcare provider to ensure there are no underlying issues. Otherwise, your heart rate appears consistent with a healthy, active lifestyle.

I've got some concerns about my latest ECG results. It mentioned something about abnormal R wave progression. Is that something to worry about or can it be considered normal? I've been feeling a bit out of breath when I climb about 23 stairs. What should I do about this? I'd really appreciate some guidance.
