I've been having these short period chest pains for about 6 months now, and honestly, it's freaking me out a bit. I got my ECG and Doppler tests done, and they came back normal. I'm also taking esoz d every morning for gastric issues. But, the chest pains still show up sometimes, and I can't help but worry about them being signs of a heart attack. What do you think is going on here? Any guidance would really help.

I've been noticing this feeling of palpitations or a flickering sensation in my chest about two or three times a day, and it lasts between 5 to 10 seconds. I had some tests done, like an ECG, an echo, and a TMT, and they all came back normal. Should I be worried about this, or is this something that can happen even if those tests are alright? Is there anything else I should consider or do?

Experiencing palpitations or flickering in the chest for brief periods, despite normal ECG, echo, and TMT results, is often benign and can be related to factors such as stress, caffeine intake, anxiety, or hormonal fluctuations. While these sensations can be unsettling, they are usually not a cause for concern if cardiac tests are normal. To manage these symptoms, consider reducing caffeine and alcohol intake, practicing stress-relief techniques such as mindfulness or yoga, and ensuring adequate hydration and sleep. If the palpitations persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and to discuss additional monitoring, such as a Holter monitor, to capture intermittent episodes.

I'm wondering if you can help me understand what's going on with my blood pressure. It's been fluctuating a lot, sometimes shooting up to 180 over 110, and my pulse rate gets really high too. My heart and sugar levels are fine, but this blood pressure issue is worrying me. Do you have any advice or medication suggestions to help stabilize it?

I'm trying to come off the beta blockers my doctor prescribed for the heart palpitations linked to my anxiety. I'm a bit worried about the process and wondering if stopping them might lead to any issues or side effects afterward. Can you help guide me on what to expect and how to do this safely?

To come off beta blockers that were prescribed for anxiety symptoms like heart palpitations, it is important to gradually taper off the medication under the supervision of your healthcare provider. Abruptly stopping beta blockers can lead to rebound symptoms such as increased heart rate, blood pressure, and anxiety. One common beta blocker used for anxiety symptoms is Propranolol. Your doctor may gradually reduce your dosage over a period of time to minimize withdrawal symptoms. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions carefully during this process. After stopping beta blockers, some individuals may experience a temporary increase in heart rate and blood pressure. However, these symptoms typically subside as your body adjusts to being off the medication. If you have any concerns or experience any troubling symptoms during the tapering process, be sure to contact your healthcare provider for further guidance.
