Is a dry cough a sign of heart problems?
A weak heart causes fluid to back up in the lungs. This can cause shortness of breath with exercise or difficulty breathing at rest or when lying flat in bed. Lung congestion can also cause a dry, hacking cough or wheezing.

I'm a bit concerned about my heart rate when I'm sleeping. At night, it sometimes goes as high as 115 beats per minute, but during the day, it's more like 85 BPM. I don't have any other health conditions right now. Should I be worried about this change in heart rate between day and night? Is it normal?
Heart beat rise during sleep in night up to 115 beats per minute is known as nocturnal tachycardia. This can be due to various reasons such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, or even certain medications. Since you do not have any other existing conditions, I recommend monitoring your caffeine intake and practicing relaxation techniques before bedtime. If the issue persists, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol, starting with a low dose of 25mg once daily in the morning. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.
