View allI'm curious if it's normal for my heart to race and beat really hard, almost like it's going to jump out of my chest, whenever I'm anxious or getting up from sleeping. It feels pretty intense and I'm also quite thin. I've done an ECG, an echo, and had blood tests, and everything came back normal. Is this something I should be worried about?
Experiencing a racing heart and strong heartbeats when anxious or when standing up quickly can be related to anxiety and a condition called orthostatic hypotension, which is a sudden drop in blood pressure upon standing. Given that your ECG, echo, and blood tests are normal, it's less likely to be a severe cardiac issue. Managing anxiety through techniques like deep breathing exercises, mindfulness, or therapy can help. Additionally, when standing up, try to do it slowly to give your body time to adjust. If your symptoms persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and to discuss additional strategies for managing your symptoms.

Is peanut butter good for high blood pressure?
Peanut butter has fiber and proteins which are healthy and few studies showed that it can reduce mean diastolic blood pressure. And as long as they don't contain hydrogenated fat, nut butters including peanut butter won't cause problems for your cholesterol levels too.

My dad had a minor heart attack on November 7th, and he had a bypass operation back in 2008 in the UK. I'm really worriedis this something we should be super concerned about given his history? What can we do to prevent this from getting worse?
Since he had a minor heart attack, it's important for him to follow the doctor's recommendations for recovery. In addition to any prescribed medications, it's crucial for him to make lifestyle changes such as eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking. Given his history of heart issues, he may be prescribed medications such as aspirin to prevent blood clots, a beta-blocker like Metoprolol to reduce strain on the heart, and a statin like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels. It's important for him to take these medications as directed by his doctor to help prevent future heart issues.
