I've been noticing that my heart starts beating really fast sometimes, especially when I'm going up the stairs, and it makes me feel pretty anxious. Could you suggest some tests to figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart condition. I recommend you get the following tests done to evaluate your heart health: 1. Electrocardiogram (ECG) to check the electrical activity of your heart. 2. Echocardiogram to assess the structure and function of your heart. 3. Stress test to evaluate how your heart responds to physical activity. 4. Holter monitor to record your heart's activity over a period of time. 5. Blood tests to check for any abnormalities in your heart enzymes or hormones. These tests will help determine the cause of your symptoms and guide further treatment.

I've recently turned 23, and I've been monitoring my blood pressure at home with an Omron monitor I got last month. My readings always seem a bit high, with systolic between 125-135 and diastolic between 85-95. My heart rate is hanging out between 95-110, even when I'm just resting. I've been feeling some burning and pressure on my chest with occasional pain. It's not severe, but it happens. I had an ECG and Echo last year, and the doctor said they were normal, but I'm still concerned. Should I be worried about these numbers and symptoms? Do you think I should consult with a doctor?

It's important to address your elevated blood pressure and resting heart rate. Based on your symptoms and readings, it would be advisable to start medication to manage your blood pressure. I recommend starting with a low dose of Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, you can take Metoprolol (brand name Lopressor) 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication to ensure it is appropriate for you. Regular monitoring of your blood pressure and heart rate is also essential.
