I'm having this issue where my heart seems to race and my hands go numb. It gets really intense, like my heartbeat skyrockets, especially at night. Last night it happened again, and it's not the first time it also occurred about 15 days ago. I got an ECG done, and while my heart rate was really fast, my blood pressure was normal. What's going on here? Why is this happening to me?

My dad had heart bypass surgery about 3 years ago at Ushamullapudi Hospital, and now his heart has gotten larger. He's really having trouble with breathing. He's 60 years old. What could be causing this and what should we do next?
He may benefit from medications such as Carvedilol (Coreg) to help reduce the workload on his heart and improve his symptoms. The typical starting dose for Carvedilol is 3.125 mg twice a day, which can be gradually increased as tolerated. Additionally, he may also be prescribed Furosemide (Lasix) to help reduce fluid buildup in his body and relieve his breathing difficulties. The usual starting dose for Furosemide is 20-80 mg per day, depending on his kidney function and fluid status. It is crucial for him to follow up with his cardiologist regularly for monitoring and adjustments to his medication regimen.

I'm feeling a heaviness in my chest that seems to come from where the heart is, but it's only happening in the winter. During the summer, I don't experience this at all. Is it something normal or could it be a heart-related issue?
This could be due to a condition known as stable angina, where chest discomfort or pain occurs when the heart muscle doesn't get enough oxygen-rich blood flow, often triggered by cold weather. To alleviate symptoms, you can take a medication like Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain relief. The usual dosage is 0.3 to 0.6 mg sublingually every 5 minutes as necessary, up to 3 doses. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.
