I'm experiencing a high heart rate at intervals. What could be causing this? I don't have any symptoms related to COVID.

High heart rate in periodic breaks can be due to various reasons such as stress, anxiety, dehydration, caffeine intake, or underlying heart conditions. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25mg) to help regulate your heart rate.

View allI'm really concerned about my husband's ECG results. I've attached them for you to see. It shows sinus bradycardia and sinus arrhythmia. Could this be because he works out regularly? Do these results seem normal, or is there something we should be worried about?
Sinus bradycardia with sinus arrhythmia can be a normal finding in individuals, especially in those who are physically fit like your husband who regularly goes to the gym. It is usually not a cause for concern if there are no associated symptoms. However, it is important to monitor any symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath. If your husband is asymptomatic, no specific treatment is usually required. Just continue with regular check-ups with your healthcare provider to monitor his heart health.

I've been thinking about getting an infrared heating panel, but I'm worried it might mess with my pacemaker because of the electromagnetic field. The company says it actually gives off less electromagnetic static than the sun, so it shouldn't be a problem. Should I be concerned about this?
Infrared heating panels typically emit low levels of electromagnetic fields, which are unlikely to interfere with a pacemaker. However, it is always best to consult with your cardiologist or healthcare provider for personalized advice. If you experience any unusual symptoms or concerns regarding your pacemaker while using the infrared heating panel, please seek medical attention promptly.

I'm experiencing sudden and strong heartbeats in my chest, and it just happens out of nowhere. It's really uncomfortable, and even something as simple as walking can set it off. Could you help me understand what might be causing this and suggest any solutions?
Sudden strong heartbeat and discomfort in the chest, especially during simple activities like walking, could be due to a condition called atrial fibrillation. It is a type of irregular heartbeat that can lead to serious complications if not treated. I recommend you to take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) 25mg twice daily to help control your heart rate and rhythm. However, it is important to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
