I've been experiencing this sharp pain on the left side of my chest that only lasts a few seconds, but it's got me worried. On top of that, my chest feels heavy, and my eyes just feel really tired. Should I be concerned about this? What could it mean?

Question

I'm really worried because my blood pressure has been super high for the last few hours, reading 197 over 111. I'm feeling a lot of discomfort and it's making me nervous. Could this be hypertension or something else I should be concerned about? What should I do right now?

Question

I'm 22 and was recently at the cardiologist because I've noticed more skipped heartbeats. They did some tests like a TMT echo and an X-ray and said my heart's fine, but during the echo, there were some skipped beats. The doctor saw this and put me on Met XL 25, saying it's for long-term use. I've got a few worries thoughshould I be taking this medication at such a young age? Is it going to cause any issues in the future, especially if I occasionally forget a dose? My blood pressure is normal. Can you help me understand this better?

Question

I'm experiencing this kind of strong pounding pulse throughout my body. It's not really fast, just really strong. I can even see it in my neck when I look in the mirror and I feel it in my fingers and hands when I touch something. I also notice a visible pulse in my stomach and when I'm lying down, my head kind of bobs up and down with my pulse. Right now, even as I'm sitting in bed with my laptop, the pulse is shaking my laptop. This began shortly after I had some issues with anxiety and possible heart problems, but I've been to the hospital multiple times and they've ruled out any heart issues. It often gets triggered after heavy meals and this has been happening for about a year now. What could be causing this?
