View allI'm really concerned about my heart rate lately. It seems to spike, especially when I'm sleeping, and I'm not sure if it's because of fear or anxiety about everything that's happening with COVID-19. Could you give me some advice or steps I can take to handle this? I'd be open to a phone or video consultation too. Appreciate your help!

I'm feeling some pain on the left side of my chest, and it honestly feels like it's coming from my heart. It's not excruciating, but it's definitely scary and annoying, almost like little stabbing pains. Should I be concerned that this could be a sign of a heart attack?
It's important to rule out any serious conditions like a heart attack. However, based on your description, it could also be musculoskeletal or related to anxiety. To help alleviate the pain and discomfort, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, if you have a history of acid reflux, you can try taking Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast to see if it helps with the symptoms. Remember to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm having these heart palpitations in my chest, left arm, and left leg for months now. They get worse at night and right after I wake up. Plus, I often feel really tired and out of breath. It's so frustrating and starting to affect my mood. Do you think this is something to do with my heart, or could it be linked to anxiety and depression?
It is important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. However, based on your symptoms of heart palpitations, tiredness, breathlessness, and irritability, it is possible that you may be experiencing a cardiac issue. It is recommended to get an ECG (Electrocardiogram) done to evaluate your heart's electrical activity. In the meantime, you can take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) 25mg once daily to help with the heart palpitations. Additionally, if anxiety and depression are contributing to your symptoms, you can consider taking Sertraline (brand name: Zoloft) 50mg once daily to help manage these conditions.
