I've noticed when I'm lying down that I can really feel my heartbeat in my left chest and sometimes even in other parts of my body. I've already had an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal. My anxiety has been under control, but this is still happening. Could it be something else or is this just something normal?

can be due to benign causes such as heightened awareness of your heartbeat (palpitations) or muscle twitching. This can be exacerbated by anxiety. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to reduce the sensation of palpitations. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga can also be beneficial in managing these symptoms.

View allI'm a bit worried because I've been diabetic for 35 years and have managed it pretty well until now, but recently, I've started experiencing this sinking feeling and episodes of fainting and dizziness. I got an ECG done and it shows some blockage. Could this be related to my diabetes, and what should I do next?
Given your 35-year history of well-managed diabetes, the recent symptoms of sinking feeling, fainting, and dizziness, along with ECG indications of blockage, suggest a potential cardiovascular issue, such as coronary artery disease or cardiac autonomic neuropathy, so consult a cardiologist to discuss further testing, like angiography or stress tests, and develop a plan to address the blockage and manage cardiovascular risk factors.

I'm 22 years old and I smoke regularly. Lately, I've been experiencing a tight feeling and pain in my chest and back over the past few days. I'm not sure if it's related to my heart, lungs, or maybe something gastric? It gets worse whenever I lift something heavy or if I try to get up quickly from bed. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

I'm a 33-year-old guy, and I just got all my heart check-ups done. The results for my ECG, ECHO, and TMT seemed fine, but my echo report mentioned something about trivial tricuspid regurgitation and trivial mitral regurgitation. My doctor said it's nothing to worry about, but I'm eager to start some physical activity like gym workouts and swimming to lose weight. Is it safe for me to go ahead with cardio and strength training with these heart conditions?
yes mild exercises are advised.
