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?

I'm really concerned because my friend just had angiography and then angioplasty three days later. Now, due to complications, another angiography and possibly angioplasty are needed just three weeks after the first. Are there any risks with having these procedures so frequently?
Frequent angiography and angioplasty procedures can carry certain risks, such as increased chances of bleeding, infection, damage to blood vessels, and allergic reactions to contrast dye. Additionally, there is a risk of developing blood clots at the site of the procedure. To help reduce these risks, your friend's healthcare provider may prescribe medications such as Aspirin and Clopidogrel to prevent blood clots, as well as medications like Atorvastatin to manage cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further complications. It is important for your friend to follow the prescribed medication regimen and attend all follow-up appointments to monitor for any potential complications.

I'm experiencing this sharp, pin-like pain in my chest and back. It was really bad in January, but now it's not as intense, just feels like pins. I had my ECG done and everything came back normal. Can you tell me what precautions I should take?
Given your symptoms of pin-like pain in the chest and back, and a normal ECG, consider consulting a cardiologist to rule out conditions like pericarditis, costochondritis, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD); in the meantime, avoid heavy lifting, maintain a healthy weight, manage stress, and avoid triggers like spicy or fatty foods that can exacerbate symptoms.
