I've been feeling this heavy sensation and pressure on my chest, and it's making it hard to breathe. There's no actual pain, but it's definitely worrying me. What could be causing this shortness of breath? Should I be concerned?

View allI'm really concerned because I've been experiencing skipped heartbeats for about five months now. It often feels like there's a pause in my heartbeat, maybe for a second, but I'm not completely sure. I've never fainted or felt dizzy when this happens, but it does make me feel very anxious. I'm really worried about the possibility of a sudden cardiac arrest because of these skipped beats. Are these skipped heartbeats something I should be seriously worried about, even though my ECG, ECHO, and HOLTER tests all came back normal?
Skip heartbeats can be concerning, but they are not always dangerous, especially if your tests (ECG, ECHO, HOLTER) have come back normal. It is important to manage your anxiety as stress can worsen the symptoms. In some cases, lifestyle changes such as reducing caffeine intake, managing stress, and getting enough sleep can help. If the symptoms persist or worsen, medications like beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) can be prescribed to help regulate your heartbeat. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure readings over the past two days. They've been around 10476, 11076, 10583, and 10366. This started after I switched my medication from Metoprolol 50 mg to Tazloc CT 406.25 about 10 days ago. Are these readings considered low? Could you please tell me what would be considered low blood pressure?
The blood pressure readings you have provided are within the normal range. Low blood pressure is typically considered to be a systolic pressure less than 90 mmHg and a diastolic pressure less than 60 mmHg. Since your readings are consistently above these values, your blood pressure is not considered low. Regarding the medication change from metoprolol to tazloc CT-406.25, it seems to be working well for you as your blood pressure readings are within the normal range. Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly and consult your doctor if you have any concerns
