Ive been noticing that when I lie down, especially on my side, I can really feel my heartbeat, and it's hard to focus on anything else. What could be causing this? Any advice would be appreciated.

Feeling your heartbeat more prominently when lying down, especially on your side, can be due to a condition called palpitations. This can be caused by various factors such as anxiety, stress, caffeine intake, or even certain medications. To help alleviate this sensation, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and reducing caffeine consumption may also help.
