I'm having these weird experiences when I'm about to fall asleep, like when I'm in that transition phase. It's like I feel this single, really strong heartbeat that kind of moves my whole body. Its kind of freaking me out. Ive attached my ECG can you help me figure out whats going on with this?

it could be due to a premature ventricular contraction (PVC). This is when the heart's lower chambers (ventricles) contract earlier than normal, causing an extra, abnormal heartbeat. It may feel like a strong thump in your chest. Based on the ECG you provided, it confirms the presence of PVCs. To manage this condition, you can take a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help regulate your heart rhythm and reduce the occurrence of PVCs. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring.

View allIm 18 and experiencing palpitations out of nowhere, like my heart races hard even when Im just chilling. Its weird because Im not anxious, and all my tests like ECG and chest x-ray are showing normal results with normal sinus rhythm. My cardiac shadow came out normal too. So what could be causing these palpitations when Im just at rest?
It's good that your ECG and chest x-ray results are normal. Palpitations can sometimes occur without any underlying heart condition. In your case, since there is no apparent cause for the palpitations, you may consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help reduce the palpitations and the sensation of your heart beating fast. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may also help alleviate the symptoms.

I've been experiencing a strange fluttering feeling just under my left breast since last night. I'm not sure if it's just gas or if I'm having heart palpitations, but it's really uncomfortable and kept me from sleeping well. Theres no pain, and my smart band shows my heart rate is 83 with a SPO2 of 96. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
The weird fluttering sensation under your left breast, without pain, could be due to various reasons such as heart palpitations, anxiety, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or even gas trapped in the digestive system; given your normal heart rate and oxygen saturation levels, try relaxation techniques, avoid caffeine and heavy meals, and if the sensation persists or worsens, consider consulting a cardiologist

I'm taking Prolomet 25mg for my high heart rate and blood pressure and I've been on it for about a year. Sometimes when I catch a common cold, it gets hard to breathe and I take Budamet tablets. But when I talked to a pulmonologist, he said that Prolomet isnt good for long-term use because it can cause respiratory issues, and he suggested switching to OLMARK 40 instead. Does this sound right to you, or should I be concerned about making the change?
yes continue olmark 40 medication.
