I'm having this pain in my left leg that's been bothering me for about 15 days now. I'm 84 and have a history of heart issues, so I'm regularly on medications like Ecospirin, Amlokind for my blood pressure, and some others like Nitrolong and Losar, though I've recently stopped taking Renozex. The pain hits me when I walk. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm working night shifts from 5 PM to 3 AM IST, and my routine has me going to sleep around 3:30 AM, then waking up at 11:30 AM. I usually have my first meal at 1 PM, which is lunch. After that, I often take a nap, but during this time, I've noticed my heart feels like it's beating very fast, and I can actually hear it beating. Could you help me understand why this might be happening and what precautions I should follow?
After having lunch and going to sleep, feeling a high heart rate and hearing your heart beating sounds could be due to a condition called palpitations. Palpitations are feelings that your heart is skipping a beat, fluttering, or beating too hard or too fast. This can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, or certain medications. To help reduce palpitations and maintain a healthy heart rate, you can try the following precautions: - Avoid heavy meals right before bedtime - Stay hydrated throughout the day - Limit caffeine intake, especially in the afternoon and evening - Try to manage stress through relaxation techniques or activities - Ensure you are getting enough sleep and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule If the palpitations persist or worsen, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
