I've been noticing something odd when I sleep. If I rest my head on my hand, when I wake up, that part of my head feels numb, almost like there's been blood circulation loss. It usually happens near my ear or sometimes at the back. Once I wake up and move my hand away, I can feel the blood coming back, and after massaging it for a bit, it feels normal again. Is this something to worry about, or is it common? I'm a bit anxious about it.

View allI've been noticing my heart beating really noticeably when I'm lying down. My ECG came out normal, and the doctor mentioned it's palpitations and gave me some medication for it. Any idea how long it might take before the palpitations go away?
The duration for palpitations to improve can vary depending on the individual and the specific medication prescribed. However, in general, you may start to notice an improvement in your palpitations within a few days to a couple of weeks after starting the medication. It is important to take the medication as prescribed by your doctor and follow up with them for any necessary adjustments.

My dad's looking really tired lately, and I'm worried because he's been on Metocard XL 50 mg twice a day. His blood pressure has been ranging from 13070 to 15075. I'm just trying to understand what might be causing this. Any ideas?
It is possible that your father is experiencing facial weakness as a side effect of Metocard XL (Metoprolol) medication. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as beta blockers, which can sometimes cause muscle weakness or fatigue as a side effect. However, it is important to note that facial weakness can also be a symptom of other underlying medical conditions. It is recommended to consult with your father's healthcare provider to discuss this symptom and explore other possible causes. In the meantime, it may be helpful to monitor his blood pressure regularly and ensure that it stays within the target range.

I've noticed my heart rate is jumping between 54 and 131. I'm a healthy 19-year-old, so is this normal? Should I be worried about these fluctuations?
Your fluctuating heart rate may be due to various factors. It's important to monitor your heart rate and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking propranolol 10mg twice daily to help regulate your heart rate. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
