I've been noticing this fluttering feeling under my left breast and I'm not sure if it's my heart or something with my stomach. On top of that, I keep feeling hot and cold at the same time, and my feet are freezing, even with socks on. I struggle with bad anxiety and panic attacks, plus I'm bipolar, and I've been a hypochondriac since I was little. I'm constantly worried about having a heart attack. What could be going on?

View allI'm 20 and was diagnosed with hypertension a couple of years back. With the chaos of COVID, my schedule was kind of all over the place, so I ended up taking my blood pressure meds around 2 in the afternoon. Whenever I check, my BP seems to hover around 13080 or 85. Is this considered controlled? Also, is it okay for me to start taking my BP meds after breakfast instead? I've always been under the impression that the effects of these pills only last about 12 hours, and then my BP might rise after that. I'm also undergoing psychiatric treatment and currently on metoprolol and amlodipine since my doctor stopped the telmisartan when COVID hit. Could you help me out here?
Your blood pressure reading of 13080-85 is within the normal range, but it is on the higher side of normal. To further control your blood pressure, you can consider taking your medications in the morning after breakfast. Metoprolol and amlodipine are commonly used to treat hypertension. You can take Metoprolol 50mg once daily in the morning after breakfast and Amlodipine 5mg once daily in the morning after breakfast as well. These medications work effectively to help lower your blood pressure throughout the day. It's important to continue monitoring your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your doctor for any adjustments in your treatment plan. Additionally, make sure to adhere to a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management, to further support your blood pressure control.

I've got an ECG report that says I have left atrial enlargement and mild left axis deviation, but my blood pressure is around 130. Should I be concerned about this?
Left atrial enlargement and mild left axis deviation on an ECG can be indicative of certain heart conditions. It is important to further evaluate these findings with additional tests such as an echocardiogram to assess the structure and function of the heart. In the meantime, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet can be beneficial. In terms of medication, you may consider taking medications such as Losartan (50mg) to help manage blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart.

I'm really worried because my whole body seems to vibrate with my heartbeat, and I can actually see it in my stomach and hands. I've done ECGs, two TMTs, and an echo, and they all came back normal. I also feel this pressure on the left side of my chest, plus irritation in my throat that's been going on for more than two weeks now. I'm not sure if I should go for another echo or not. I also have a vitamin D deficiency and am taking weekly sachets for it. Do you think it's necessary to take calcium tablets with it? Any advice would be really appreciated.
