I've been feeling a really strong pulse in my head for the past couple of days, and yesterday I noticed it in my rib area too. It feels like there's an extra heartbeat or something. I've tried to ignore it, but it's so uncomfortable and it's been messing up my sleep. I even woke up with a really fast heart rate today, and it's making me quite anxious. It's like I can't escape this feeling, whether I'm awake or trying to sleep. What should I do to make this go away? Any advice would really help.

Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations. Palpitations can be caused by various factors such as stress, caffeine intake, dehydration, or underlying medical conditions. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a dose of 25-50mg once daily. Additionally, it is important to stay hydrated, avoid caffeine and alcohol, and practice relaxation techniques to reduce stress. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is recommended to seek further evaluation from a healthcare professional.

My brother-in-law had a heart attack yesterday morning and was rushed to the hospital. The doctors said he had multiple strokes at home and in the hospital. They also mentioned that one of his arteries was previously blocked and now it's burst. He's been on a ventilator since yesterday morning, but now the doctors are saying he is no more and are asking us to remove the ventilator. What should we do in this situation? Is there anything else we can try?

I've been dealing with tachycardia for the last 2.5 months and my doctor mentioned it's because of stress and anxiety, giving me placida and clonofit .25. I'm just wondering if there's anything else I should consider doing, or if there's something more about these medications I should know?
