I'm really concerned about my 6-month-old daughter who has a 4 mm perimembranous VSD. Is there a chance that this VSD will close on its own, or should I be worried about any complications?

I'm really confused about why I'm experiencing heart palpitations even when I'm not feeling anxious. For the past year, I've been dealing with anxiety and have been taking etizolem and propranolol for a few months to help with it. But if I miss just one dose of etizolem, my heart starts racing and feels very uncomfortable. It's really scary. Is it possible that these palpitations are more related to anxiety, like my psychiatrist suggests, or could it be something else, maybe related to my heart? I haven't had panic attacks or any other anxiety symptoms recently, just the palpitations when I skip the medication.
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety and possibly withdrawal effects from Etizolam. Etizolam is a benzodiazepine derivative used to treat anxiety disorders, and sudden discontinuation can lead to withdrawal symptoms such as increased heart rate or palpitations. Propranolol is a beta-blocker that helps with heart palpitations and can be used in combination with Etizolam. To address your concerns, it is important to follow your psychiatrist's advice regarding the management of anxiety and heart palpitations. It is possible that the palpitations you are experiencing when skipping Etizolam are due to withdrawal effects, as benzodiazepines should be tapered off gradually under medical supervision to avoid such symptoms. In addition to continuing your current medications, you may also benefit from therapy or counseling to address underlying anxiety issues. It is important to discuss any concerns or new symptoms with your psychiatrist for proper management.

I just got a new Dr. Morepen pulse oximeter and while checking my heart rate and oxygen levels, it showed a message about a suspected occasional short pulse interval. Should I be concerned about this? I had a mild Covid infection last year and experienced some palpitations afterward, which have since improved over time. After recovering, I did a holter monitor test that was normal except for Sinus Arrhythmia, which my doctor said was normal. My Echo test in October also came back normal. I often check my pulse rate and oxygen because of occasional palpitations since the Covid infection. Do you think I need more tests because of this short pulse interval message?
An echo is advised to the patient.
