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?

View allI've been having some chest issues and I went to the doctor who said it's just my bone and everything's normal, so he prescribed Pan 20 for 10 days before meals once a day, Bandy medicine, and a vitamin D sachet to take once a week. But I'm still a bit worried because I sometimes feel chest pain when I take a deep breath, and in the mornings on my left side. The pain's really sharp, but it only lasts about 45 seconds and happens maybe 6 or 7 times a day. I had anxiety about three years ago, and I also sleep on my stomach. Could that be related or something I should be more concerned about? Any advice would be really helpful.
It is important to follow up with your doctor regarding the chest pain you are experiencing, especially if it is recurring multiple times a day. The sharp pain in the left chest that lasts for a few seconds could be due to various reasons, including musculoskeletal issues, anxiety, or even gastrointestinal problems. In the meantime, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relief medication like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the chest pain. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is crucial to seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit concerned about my cholesterol and triglyceride levels. My triglycerides are at 343, total cholesterol is 145, HDL is 21, and LDL is 55.4. By the way, I had an angioplasty just a month ago. Could you help me understand what these numbers mean? Should I be worried or make any changes to my routine?
Your lipid profile indicates significantly elevated triglycerides at 343 mgdL, low HDL cholesterol at 21 mgdL, and relatively low LDL cholesterol at 55.4 mgdL. These values are concerning, especially given that you recently underwent angioplasty. Elevated triglycerides and low HDL levels are risk factors for cardiovascular disease and can contribute to plaque buildup in the arteries, increasing the risk of further complications. It is essential to follow a comprehensive treatment plan that includes lifestyle modifications such as a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise, and possibly medications to manage lipid levels. Work closely with your cardiologist to monitor and manage your lipid profile, and follow their recommendations to reduce cardiovascular risk.

Ive been noticing that when I lie down, especially on my side, I can really feel my heartbeat, and it's hard to focus on anything else. What could be causing this? Any advice would be appreciated.
Feeling your heartbeat more prominently when lying down, especially on your side, can be due to a condition called palpitations. This can be caused by various factors such as anxiety, stress, caffeine intake, or even certain medications. To help alleviate this sensation, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and reducing caffeine consumption may also help.
