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.

After recovering from COVID over a month ago, I've noticed my blood pressure has been consistently high, ranging between 145-165. I've been really disciplined with my diet and make sure to walk twice a day for 30 to 40 minutes. Is this high BP normal for someone in my situation, or could there be something else going on health-wise? What do you think?

After recovering from COVID-19, it is not uncommon for some patients to experience fluctuations in their blood pressure. In your case, with a consistently elevated blood pressure ranging between 145-165, it is important to monitor this closely. Since you are following a strict diet and exercise routine, there may be an underlying issue causing this spike. Considering your history of high blood pressure, it is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try incorporating medication such as Losartan 50mg once daily to help manage your blood pressure. Additionally, continue with your healthy lifestyle habits and monitor your blood pressure regularly.

I just found out there are blockages in both arteries on the left and right sides of my heart. The doctor said they're about 6 to 8 months old. Should I be worried about how old these blockages are and what kind of treatment is usually recommended for this? I'm feeling a bit anxious about what this means for my health going forward.

As there are 2 vessels blocked you can be on conservative management and closely monitored if needed stenting might be done,follow your doctors advice
