I've been having a hard time breathing when I'm lying down on either side. Could this be related to my lungs or heart? I'm feeling a bit worried. Can you give me some insight into what might be going on?

View allI've been noticing that every time I check my pulse rate, it's always above 100, sometimes even hitting 95 to 105. I'm worried about what could be causing this consistently high pulse rate. Can you help me understand the possible reasons behind it?
High pulse rate, also known as tachycardia, can be caused by various factors. Some common reasons for a high pulse rate in the range of 95-105 beats per minute include physical activity, stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, fever, anemia, thyroid disorders, and certain medications. It is important to monitor your pulse rate at different times of the day and in different situations to see if there are any patterns or triggers. If your pulse rate consistently remains above 100 beats per minute, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try relaxation techniques, staying hydrated, and avoiding stimulants to see if there is any improvement in your pulse rate.

I've been having chest pains and I'm super worried it might be related to my heart even though all my tests like ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-ray came back normal. The fear started after the pandemic and now I'm constantly thinking about "what if" something's wrong. I've had heart palpitations about 10-15 times and even small muscle pains make me anxious about having a heart attack. What can I do about this constant fear? Do you think there's a chance I might really have heart issues? My last echo and TMT were 10 months ago and the most recent ECG was 20 days ago, all normal. Would love any advice or insight.
It sounds like you are experiencing a lot of anxiety and fear related to your heart health, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite multiple tests showing normal results, you are still worried about having a heart attack. It is important to address your anxiety and stress levels in order to overcome these persistent fears. One approach to consider is seeking therapy or counseling to help manage your anxiety and fears related to your heart health. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga may also be beneficial in reducing stress and anxiety. In terms of medication, you can consider taking an anxiolytic medication such as lorazepam (Ativan) as needed for acute episodes of anxiety or panic attacks. The usual dosage is 0.5-2 mg taken orally 2-3 times a day as needed. It is also important to maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating a balanced diet, engaging in regular physical activity, and getting an adequate amount of sleep. These lifestyle changes can contribute to overall well-being and may help alleviate some of your anxiety symptoms. Remember, it is essential to address your mental health concerns in addition to your physical health. If you continue to experience persistent anxiety and fear despite normal test results, consider consulting with a mental health professional for further evaluation and support.
