I'm really worried about a heartbeat of 240 beats per minute. Is this life-threatening? Can it lead to heart failure? Is there a way to treat it, or what should I do next?

I'm really struggling with severe chest pain but all my heart tests like ECG, 2D Echo, and TMT showed nothing wrong. I'm also dealing with frequent panic attacks and heart palpitations, which is really concerning. I've been taking anti-inflammatory meds for about 10 days, but there's been no improvement. Could you please advise me on what I should do next?

I've been feeling this heavy sensation in my head for the past few days, and while my blood pressure was normal before, recently it's been at 126 over 80. I'm curious, does the heavy feeling in my head mean my blood pressure is actually shooting up past 140 over 90 during those times? When I visited my doctor, my pressure was 126 over 80 and I didn't have that heavy feeling at that moment.

The feeling of heaviness in your head may not necessarily correlate with your blood pressure being above 14090. It is possible to experience symptoms like a heavy head even with a blood pressure reading of 12680. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a medication like Acetaminophen 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for headache relief. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated, practice relaxation techniques, and get an adequate amount of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.
