I've been having some strange symptoms lately when I masturbate or watch intimate scenes. My chest gets tight, it feels like there's a lump in my throat, and I have shortness of breath. I sometimes even feel light-headed with my heart racing. I've had heart and lung tests but everything came back normal. Do you have any idea what this might be?

I've been taking Inapure 2.5 twice a day for a couple of weeks, and I've noticed my pulse rate drops to around 55-60 when I'm resting at night. Is it okay if I switch to taking Inapure 2.5 only in the mornings?

It is not recommended to change your medication regimen without consulting your doctor first. Inapure 2.5 is a brand name for the drug Indapamide, which is a diuretic used to treat high blood pressure. Changing the timing of your medication can affect its effectiveness in controlling your blood pressure throughout the day. It's important to discuss any concerns or changes in your medication routine with your healthcare provider to ensure the best possible treatment outcomes.

I recently had an ECG and felt really nervous during the test. The report mentioned "sinus tachycardia otherwise normal ECG." Should I be worried about this?

Sinus tachycardia is a condition where the heart beats faster than normal. In most cases, it is a normal response to stress, anxiety, or exercise. Since your ECG report shows sinus tachycardia but is otherwise normal, there is likely no cause for concern. However, if you continue to experience symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, or chest pain, it would be advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider. No specific medication is needed for sinus tachycardia, but managing stress and anxiety can help.

I'm starting to feel my pulse all over my body and it's been like this for about two weeks. I notice it in different places like my feet when I'm lying down and sometimes in my thighs, arms, and even my wrists and fingers. I can actually count the pulse without touching it, like it's happening one spot at a time. Is this something I should be worried about or could it be something serious?

This sensation of feeling a pulse in different parts of your body is known as palpitations. It can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, or hormonal changes. However, if this symptom persists and is accompanied by other symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to reduce your caffeine intake, stay hydrated, and practice stress-reducing techniques. If the palpitations continue, your doctor may prescribe medications such as Propranolol to help regulate your heart rate.
