I've been having this pain in the heart area of my chest for over three months now, and it happens about twice a week. I haven't been doing any kind of exercise recently. I'm starting to get really worried about it. Could this be something I should be concerned about? What might be causing this, and what should I do?

I've noticed that my heart rate changes with my posture. When I stand, it's around 105-116 bpm, sitting brings it down to 90-100 bpm, and when I'm lying down, it's 75-85 bpm. My blood pressure doesn't really fluctuate much though. So, I went ahead and got an ECG, and it showed sinus tachycardia but otherwise normal. The strange thing is I can feel palpitations in my neck and chest when I stand, but I have no other symptoms. I run on the treadmill at 5-8 kmhr without any problems and my pulse stays between 100-120 bpm, but right after stopping, my pulse jumps to 163 bpm before gradually coming down, and my blood pressure was 140 over 75 at that moment. Should I be worried about this?
Based on your symptoms and the ECG report showing sinus tachycardia, it seems like your heart rate is elevated in response to changes in posture and physical activity. Sinus tachycardia is often a normal response to certain triggers such as exercise or stress. However, it is important to monitor your symptoms and follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try to stay hydrated, avoid caffeine and other stimulants, and practice relaxation techniques to help manage your heart rate.

I'm curious about my health situation. I've been on Amcard for the past 10 years, but this year my blood pressure isn't controlled. I recently did a lipid profile, and while my cholesterol level went down from 210 to 165, my triglycerides have gone up from 135 to 195. I also drink about 200 ml of alcohol every day and have been doing so for the last 30 years. Could this be affecting my test results, and should I be concerned or make some changes?
Alcohol intake can significantly impact triglyceride levels. I recommend reducing your alcohol consumption to help lower your triglyceride levels. In addition, you can discuss with your doctor about adding a medication like Atorvastatin to help lower your triglyceride levels. The usual dosage for Atorvastatin is 10-80 mg per day, depending on your specific needs. Regular monitoring and follow-up with your healthcare provider are essential to manage your blood pressure and lipid levels effectively.
