I'm experiencing some heart-related issues that are making me a bit anxious. Back in December 2019, I had a fast heartbeat and some pain on my left side, so I went to a cardio doctor in Patna. After running an ECG, he prescribed me clonozepam, etizola, and a beta blocker, which really helped at the time. But lately, I've been noticing this fluttering sensation in my heart, and it's making me wonder if it's something I should be worried about or if it's fine to just ignore it. Could you give me some advice on this?

Is sleeping good for high blood pressure?

People who sleep six hours or less may have steeper increases in blood pressure. If you already have high blood pressure, not sleeping well may make your blood pressure worse. It's thought that sleep helps your body control hormones needed to regulate stress and metabolism.

I'm currently taking 50 mg of metoprolol succinate because I had high blood pressure around a month ago, with readings peaking at 150100. Lately, my 24-hour average blood pressure is about 11070, but every 5 to 6 days it suddenly spikes to 14090. Is this something normal, or should I think about adjusting my dose?

It's good to hear that your average blood pressure has improved with the current medication. Occasional spikes in blood pressure can happen despite treatment. In your case, since the spikes occur every 5 to 6 days, it may be worth discussing with your healthcare provider about potentially increasing the dose of metoprolol succinate to better control these spikes. An adjustment in dosage or adding another medication may be considered to maintain more stable blood pressure levels.

I've been feeling this slight pain on the right side of my chest, kind of close to the center, for about 45 days now. I also have some acidity issues. Should I be worried about this?

The pain in the center of your chest could be due to acid reflux causing heartburn. I recommend taking antacids like Tums (500mg) as needed for relief from acidity. Additionally, you can take Omeprazole (20mg) once daily before breakfast to reduce stomach acid production and alleviate symptoms. Make sure to avoid spicy and fatty foods, eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down immediately after eating to help manage your acidity problem. If the pain persists or worsens, it is important to seek further medical evaluation.
