I've been experiencing an increased heart rate after starting Torvate 200. How long does it usually take to get back to normal? Should I be concerned or do anything specific in the meantime?

Increase in heart rate due to Torvate 200 is a known side effect of the medication. To help normalize your heart rate, you can try the following: - Reduce caffeine intake - Practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation - Stay hydrated - Get regular exercise - Ensure you are getting enough sleep If your heart rate remains elevated or if you experience any concerning symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider. The duration for your heart rate to return to normal can vary depending on individual factors, so it is important to monitor your symptoms closely.

View allI'm really concerned because I've been having upper back and chest pain along with shortness of breath for the last 10 months. Sometimes my heart palpitations get really intense. There's also this pain in my left chest that travels down to my left hand. Ive done multiple ECGs, a 2D Echo, and a treadmill test, and everything came back normal. My LDL was high at 276 but it's under control now. I also checked in with a lung doctor and even got an X-ray, which was also normal. What puzzles me is that I have no trouble when doing activities like cycling, swimming, or walking. No doctor has been able to pinpoint what's going on, so I'm really looking for some guidance. Any ideas on what could be causing these symptoms?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to your heart and cardiovascular system. Given that your ECG, D Echo, and TMT tests have come back normal, but you are still experiencing chest pain, shortness of breath, and heart palpitations, it may be worth considering a medication like **Atorvastatin** to help further control your LDL levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular issues. Additionally, considering your symptoms, a medication like **Metoprolol** can help in managing heart palpitations and chest pain. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider to discuss these medication options and determine the appropriate dosage for your specific condition.

I've been having some chest pain that moves around a bit - sometimes it's on the left side, other times in the middle. I walk 5 km every day and I don't feel any pain when I walk, which is odd. About a year and a half ago, I had a TMT, Echo, and ECG done, and everything came back normal. Since then, I've had four more ECGs, and they're all normal too. I attached my latest ECG here. I'm just wondering, is there anything else I can do to really make sure this isn't a heart-related issue? The pain mostly hits when I'm sitting, so I can't figure out what's going on. Could it really be non-cardiac?
"Hello, based on your description and the normal results of your TMT, Echo, and multiple ECG tests, it is less likely that the chest pain is related to a cardiac issue. Since the pain occurs mostly when you are sitting, it could be musculoskeletal or related to gastric issues. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like **Ranitidine** 150mg twice daily before meals to see if it helps with the pain. Additionally, you can take **Acetaminophen** 500mg as needed for pain relief. If the pain persists or worsens, further evaluation by a healthcare provider may be necessary."

Started feeling sweaty and uneasy out of nowhere and went to see the doctor. They did an ECG. Does this look normal to you? I'm a bit worried.
Based on the ECG provided, I cannot assess it without seeing the actual ECG report. It is important to discuss the results with your doctor who ordered the test. If there are any abnormalities or concerns, your doctor will be able to provide you with the appropriate treatment or further testing.
