I'm experiencing some chest heaviness and a bit of pain, and it's making it harder to catch my breath at times. I've been smoking about 10 to 12 cigarettes a day. Should I be concerned about this, and what could be causing these symptoms?

View allMy mom had heart bypass surgery in August 2022 is it safe for her to use at-home Loreal hair color now? I'm worried about the chemicals affecting her heart or recovery.
Using L'Oréal hair color post-bypass is generally safe if recovery is complete and allergy test is negative.

I've been noticing that I can hear my heartbeat pretty clearly while I'm sleeping, especially in a sitting position. Sometimes it even feels like my heart is lifting or something, and it's a bit worrying. I don't have any issues with sugar or blood pressure, but my heart rate is around 100 bpm. Should I be concerned about this for my future health? What do you think?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of palpitations, which can be concerning. I recommend you to consult with a cardiologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take Tab Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further management.

I've been having this chest pain for a few days now and sometimes when I'm trying to sleep, I get these heart palpitations and feel short of breath. It honestly feels like I'm going to die, and it's making it hard for me to get any sleep. I went to a general physician recently and explained everything. The doctor just checked my pulse and listened to my heart with a stethoscope and said theres nothing to worry about. But can I actually trust that? I keep feeling like something's wrong with my heart, but the doctor didnt suggest any tests. Should I get some tests to check my heart health, or am I overthinking this? What would you advise?
it seems like there may not be an immediate cause for concern regarding heart health. However, if your symptoms persist, worsen, or cause you significant distress, its perfectly reasonable to ask for further testing to rule out heart conditions and also explore the possibility of anxiety-related symptoms. If you're still unsure or worried, I recommend having a follow-up consultation with your doctor or seeking a cardiology specialist for more specific tests, such as an ECG or echocardiogram.
