I've been having a heavy feeling and some pain on the left side of my chest, close to my heart, since this morning. I'm really concerned that it could be something related to my heart, even though I'm only 28. Should I be worried about this, or could it be something else?

View allI'm feeling really anxious lately and having these weird palpitations. Sometimes my hands and legs go numb too. I had a Holter test and an ECG but they didn't show anything. My doctor prescribed beta blockers, but I'm really worried about what's actually happening with me. Is my heart not healthy? Do I really need to take these meds forever? Are there any other tests I should consider? I'm just looking for some guidance here.
Experiencing palpitation, anxiety, and numbness in hand and leg sometimes can be due to various reasons. Since your doctor has prescribed beta blockers, it indicates that they suspect your symptoms may be related to heart issues such as arrhythmias or high blood pressure. Beta blockers help in controlling heart rate and reducing anxiety. If the Holter test and ECG did not show any abnormalities, it is a good sign that there may not be any serious underlying heart conditions. However, these symptoms can also be caused by other factors such as anxiety disorders, thyroid issues, or even vitamin deficiencies. If you are concerned about taking medications long-term, you can discuss with your doctor about alternative treatment options or lifestyle changes that may help manage your symptoms. It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding medication use, as they are prescribed based on your specific condition. In addition to the tests you have already done, your doctor may recommend further tests such as a thyroid function test, vitamin B12 levels, or a stress test to rule out other possible causes of your symptoms. It is essential to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your symptoms and response to treatment. Remember, every individual is different, and treatment plans may vary based on your specific health condition.

I'm seeing my BP as 124 over 80, and my pulse rate is 108. Is this pulse rate normal? I'm also 73 kg and having some neck pain. Should I be concerned about any of this?

I recently went through a 2D echo because of some palpitations, and I've had an EKG as well. Plus, I did a stress test a while back. Do these results seem normal to you?
Based on the information provided, I cannot give a definitive answer without reviewing the actual results of your 2D echo, EKG, and stress test. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to interpret the results accurately. If everything looks normal, no further action may be needed. However, if there are any abnormalities or concerns, your doctor may recommend specific medications.
