I've been feeling a pinching pain in my heart every now and then, just for a few seconds. It's got me worried. Is this something serious or is it considered normal?

An ECG Can Recognize the Signs of Blocked Arteries. But for further accurecy a CT coronary angiogram can reveal plaque buildup and identify blockages in the arteries, which can lead to a heart attack.

I'm really concerned about my heart rate because it's usually around 100 or more whether I'm just sitting, walking, or doing anything else. I've been using my Fitbit to track it, and I also have an Omron BP machine at home that often shows it going over 100, sometimes even hitting 120. I did see a cardiologist who said it was nothing, but I'm still worried. Can you help me figure out what might be going on or if there's anything I should do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing persistent tachycardia. One common medication used to help lower heart rate is Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor). I recommend discussing with your doctor about starting Metoprolol at a low dose, such as 25mg once daily, and then adjusting the dose as needed to help control your heart rate. It is important to monitor your blood pressure and heart rate regularly while on this medication.

I'm experiencing some left arm pain and dizziness lately, and I also have GERD issues. From time to time, I get this jaw pain too. Could this be something related to my heart? I had a Holter test done back in February and everything seemed normal, but I'm still a bit worried. Would really appreciate your insight on this.
