I've been having chest pain for the past few months, and sometimes it's on the left side as well. I've noticed it in my left hand too. It kind of comes and goes on its own. Could you suggest what might be going on or what steps I should take?

I've noticed that my heart rate has been fluctuating between 92 and 104 over the past couple of days, and I'm starting to get worried. I haven't been sleeping well and have been feeling really bloated too. Should I be concerned and see a doctor?
Not sleeping well and feeling bloated since 2 days. It is important to monitor your heart rate and symptoms closely. For elevated heart rate and trouble sleeping, you can try taking **Metoprolol** 25mg once daily to help lower your heart rate and improve sleep quality. Additionally, for bloating, you can try **Simethicone** 125mg after meals to help relieve bloating symptoms. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid foods that may exacerbate bloating.

I'm dealing with a pretty fast heartbeat most of the time, usually between 100 to 115 beats per minute, and I often feel weak. My oxygen levels are fine, staying between 98 to 100, but I've had anemia since birth due to hereditary spherocytosis. Could you give me some advice on managing this high pulse rate?
High pulse rate can be concerning, especially if you have a history of anemia and hereditary spherocytosis. In your case, it is important to address the underlying cause of your high pulse rate. Since your SpO2 levels are normal, the high pulse rate may be due to other factors such as anemia or hereditary spherocytosis. To help lower your pulse rate, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The usual dosage for Metoprolol is 25-100mg once or twice daily, as prescribed by your doctor. This medication can help slow down your heart rate and reduce the symptoms of weakness that you are experiencing. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication, as they can provide personalized advice based on your medical history and current condition.
