I'm really curious about something. Is it possible to have a heart stent removed without undergoing bypass surgery? I'm trying to understand if there's a way to do this less invasively. Would love to hear your thoughts!

View allI sometimes get these palpitations and it's really concerning. I don't usually have any chest pain or trouble breathing when it happens. I got some tests done, and my thyroid levels are alright, and the echo seems fine too. But my ECG came back showing a heart rate of 104 bpm. Is this something I should be worried about? And what can I do to bring my heart rate down?
An abnormal ECG with a heart rate of 104 bpm can be concerning, especially if you are experiencing palpitations. One way to help lower your heart rate is by taking a beta-blocker medication. This medication can help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises and avoiding stimulants like caffeine can also help lower your heart rate.

I'm really worried because my heart rate seems to shoot up when I'm stressed. Sometimes it even hits between 160 to 180 bpm. What can I do to get it back to normal? Any tips on how to reduce my heartbeat when this happens?
Increased heart rate due to tension can be concerning. To help reduce your heart rate, you can try deep breathing exercises and relaxation techniques. Additionally, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25mg once daily. It can help lower your heart rate and reduce the effects of adrenaline on your heart. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.

I've been checking my pulse rate a lot since yesterday, like 34 times, and it's been between 95 to 100 on the pulse oximeter. Is this okay, or does it seem a bit high? I'm just wondering what I should do to improve it if needed.
A pulse rate between 60 to 100 beats per minute is generally considered normal for adults. A pulse rate of 95 to 100 may be slightly on the higher side, but it could be due to various reasons such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, or physical activity. To help lower your pulse rate, you can try relaxation techniques like deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga. Make sure to stay hydrated, avoid caffeine and nicotine, and get an adequate amount of sleep. If your pulse rate consistently stays high or if you experience any other concerning symptoms, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance.
