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?

I've been noticing some skipped beats, like a big thump happening at least twice a day. I'm wondering what might be causing this. I don't usually take naps during the day. Could that be related somehow? It's a bit concerning.
Having skipped beats, also known as palpitations, can be caused by various factors. Since you are experiencing this sensation at least twice a day, it is important to investigate further. One common cause of palpitations is caffeine intake, so I would recommend reducing your consumption of caffeinated beverages such as coffee, tea, and energy drinks. Stress and anxiety can also trigger palpitations, so practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation may be helpful. Additionally, certain medications or underlying heart conditions could be contributing to your symptoms. It would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.

I've got a blocked artery and I've just had a stent put in. I know I should avoid oil, butter, ghee, and paneer - so I've cut those out of my diet. But here's the thing, I really love rice. My wife says it's not good for me either. Can you tell me if it's okay to have a bowl of rice now and then?
Dear user, regarding your question about including rice in your diet after being diagnosed with a blocked artery and having a stent placed, it is important to focus on a heart-healthy diet. You can still enjoy rice in moderation. Opt for whole grain rice like brown rice or wild rice, and limit the portion size to about 12 to 1 cup per meal. It is also recommended to pair rice with plenty of vegetables and lean protein. Additionally, you can incorporate foods rich in fiber, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes, into your diet to promote heart health. Remember to follow your doctor's advice and medication regimen for optimal recovery and management of your condition
