I'm feeling like there's a weight on my chest, and every so often, it really hurts. I've had COVID twice but I'm on the mend now. I was thinking of getting a chest x-ray, but I noticed there are different kinds, like AP view and lateral view. I'm not sure which one I should go for. Can you help?

View allI've been having these frequent palpitations lately, and my heart seems to be pounding harder than usual. I had an echo done a couple of months ago, and it came out normal. I just did an ECG a couple of days ago, and I've attached the results. Should I be worried about this?
The ECG you have attached shows sinus tachycardia, which means your heart is beating faster than normal. Since your echo two months back was normal, this may be due to other factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, or thyroid issues. I recommend you to take a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate and palpitations. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been experiencing this strange body shake with every heartbeat, and its been going on for about four months now. I've had an echo and an ECG, both of which came back normal. But I can still see my fingers, hand, stomach, and even my head shake with each heartbeat. It's really puzzling me. What could be causing this?

I'm having high BP of around 13090 for the past five years and was on Aten 0.25 and Restyl 0.25 for sleep issues. After a couple of years, I had to increase Restyl to 0.5 because the lower dose wasn't helping much with sleep. Then after five years, that too stopped being effective, so I decided to stop taking both Restyl and Aten. I'm trying out ayurvedic medicines now. A friend of mine mentioned having 5 to 10 ml of beer with 6% alcohol for better sleep. I'm curious if that's a good idea or if there are better alternatives.
it's not good
