I'm experiencing these palpitations alongside some gas. Could this be related to my heart or are the palpitations just caused by the gas? I was wondering if it's necessary to get an ECG. Could you give me some guidance on this?

Palpitations and gas can be caused by various factors, including heart issues and gastrointestinal problems. To address palpitations, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend you consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to consider an ECG to assess your heart's electrical activity. For gas relief, you can try over-the-counter medications like Simethicone (Gas-X) to help alleviate symptoms.

View allI've been feeling pretty anxious about my heart health lately. A while back, I did an ECG, echo, chest X-ray twice, and a TMT, and it was like 8 months ago. My BP is usually around 150, and my LDL is 138. I got a blood test, and it was normal. I'm on the heavier side but don't smoke or drink and there's no family history of heart issues. Still, I get these short, sharp pains in my left chest, like they disappear in seconds, and sometimes there's this bubbling or vibrating sensation there too. Plus, there are moments when my left chest and bicep feel like they're pounding, just for a few seconds. Recently, when I'm walking, it feels like I'm wobbling or floating, and my legs and hands feel lighter. The doctor said not to worry and just keep my BP and LDL in check, but I'm still worried. What should I do?
"Based on your symptoms and medical history, it is important to focus on controlling your blood pressure and LDL levels to reduce the risk of heart issues. In addition to lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and a balanced diet, you may benefit from medication to manage your blood pressure and cholesterol levels. I recommend starting a medication like Atorvastatin (10mg) to lower your LDL levels and Amlodipine (5mg) to help control your blood pressure. It is important to take these medications as prescribed by your doctor and follow up regularly for monitoring and adjustments if needed."

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been taking Telvas H and Nebicard 2.5 along with Amaryl M1, but recently she's been having these heart palpitations and feeling super uneasy after taking the Amaryl. It's kind of freaking us out because it's only started in the last few days. Do you think this could be a side effect or something we should be concerned about? What should we do to help her feel better?
it is one of the side-effects of tab amyryl antidiabetic medication. physician opinion .

I'm really worried about having three blocked arteries in the heart. Is bypass surgery the best option for this situation, or are there other treatments I should consider? I've heard a lot about different procedures, but it's all a bit confusing. What do you recommend?
Yes, bypass surgery is often recommended for blockages in multiple arteries of the heart. The surgery involves creating new pathways for blood to flow to the heart muscle by using a healthy blood vessel from another part of the body or a synthetic tube. This can help improve blood flow to the heart and reduce symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath. The specific medication and dosage post-surgery will depend on individual factors and should be prescribed by your healthcare provider.
