I've been having some issues with fast pulse and feeling short of breath. It's weird because I don't really feel any heart pain, but I do start sweating. It seems like drinking water helps a bit, but whenever I'm fasting, these symptoms seem to get worse. I'm a bit worried and trying to figure out what could be going on. Any advice?

I'm 33 and my blood pressure can fluctuate - sometimes it's around 13590, other times closer to 13085. I've noticed that my heart rate isn't always consistent; sometimes I can really feel it, and other times not so much. It seems to get worse at night. Should I be worried about this? Is it something risky?

Your blood pressure readings are slightly elevated, but not in the high risk range. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and managing stress.

I'm getting palpitations after just one drink of alcohol and my ECG results show something about a QRST contour abnormality and possible inferior myocardial damage. What should I do about this?

Based on your symptoms and ECG findings, it is important to avoid alcohol consumption. You should also consider taking medications such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your palpitations and protect your heart. Additionally, you may benefit from medications like Aspirin (75-150mg) to reduce the risk of further myocardial damage. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
