Ive noticed that my heart rate is really highlike around 96 to 108 when Im just sitting, and it shoots up to 110 to 120 once I start walking. I did have COVID about 10 months ago and got my ECG and echo tests done three months back, which came out normal. I also checked my cholesterol and thyroid levels, and they were fine. Should I be concerned about my heart rate, or is this something that will go back to normal over time?

Since your ECG and echo were normal 3 months back, it is less likely to be a serious issue. However, it is important to monitor your heart rate regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol at a low dose of 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate. Make sure to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

View allI'm finding myself getting angry over really small things lately and it's been bothering me because I also have high blood pressure. I've been on Cilacar 5mg every day. Could there be any link between my medication and these mood changes, or should I be worried about something else affecting my emotions, maybe even my blood pressure? I'm really looking for advice on how to handle this.
For cold and sneezing, Montek LC may not be the best option. Consider taking antihistamines like diphenhydramine (Benadryl) or loratadine (Claritin). Pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) can also help. Saline nasal sprays or steam inhalation can provide additional relief.

I'm experiencing some worrying symptoms like left side chest pain and vomiting. I'm not feeling hungry and sometimes my heart starts beating really fast all of a sudden. It's even affecting my sleep. I've already had an echo and TMT done, and they didn't show anything wrong, but I'm still concerned. Could this be something serious? What should I do next?

Can high blood pressure cause shortness of breath?
High blood pressure forces your heart to work harder to pump blood to the rest of your body. This causes part of your heart (left ventricle) to thicken and may lead to heart failure which presents as shortness of breath, chest pain, persistent cough, swelling in legs and weakness.
