I've been feeling strange sensations in my heart, especially when I get home after work, and at first I thought it was from drinking too much coffee. I've cut down on coffee but the feeling is still there. I do drink 2 coffees and 4 cups of tea every day. I also exercise regularly, like doing push-ups and lifting weights. Should I be worried about these symptoms? Could it be linked to my caffeine intake, or might there be something else going on?

I've been having a pounding heart and sometimes feel dizzy for about a week now. It even happens when I'm just sitting around doing nothing. Any idea what's going on? Should I be worried?

These symptoms could be due to a condition called palpitations, which can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, or underlying heart conditions. To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. Additionally, it is important to reduce your caffeine intake and practice stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing or meditation. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek further evaluation from a healthcare professional.
