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.

I read that if you often have a difference of 10 to 15 mm Hg in your systolic blood pressure between your arms, it might indicate issues like vascular disease or blocked arteries. Is this actually true? Should I be worried about peripheral artery disease if my readings are consistently different?

I'm a bit confused and worried about my latest ECG results. It showed a borderline and incomplete right bundle branch block. This wasn't even brought up when I went to the ER; I only noticed it when I looked at my test results later. Should I be concerned about it? What does it really mean for my health?

I've been experiencing this sudden sharp pain in the center of my chest for a while now, actually since middle school, about 3 to 4 years ago. Initially, it took me by surprise, but I brushed it off. It happens like 2 to 3 times a month, and I've just kind of lived with it. The thing is, it happens randomlywhether I'm just walking or chilling watching TV. What really caught my attention was that a few days ago, the pain lasted much longer than usual. It's typically 15-20 seconds, but this time, it dragged on for a solid 2-3 minutes. That got me a bit worried. I havent told my parents yet because I feel okay now, but could it be something serious that I should be concerned about? Any ideas on what this chest pain might be would really help.
