Question 3

So my left atrium size is 5.6 cm, and my doctor says my heart is alright, but I'm not sure how that is possible. On top of it, I'm having trouble with dyspnea when I exert myself. Could someone help explain what's going on?

Accepted Answer

It is possible for your doctor to determine that your heart is functioning normally despite the enlarged left atrium (LA) size. However, experiencing dyspnea on exertion is a concerning symptom that should be further evaluated. In this case, you may benefit from medication such as a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25-50 mg daily) to help with your symptoms. Additionally, a diuretic like Furosemide (20-40 mg daily) may be prescribed to reduce fluid buildup and alleviate the dyspnea. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

Question 4

I'm pretty worried right now because my heart rate is 92102 per minute while I'm just laying down. It's making me feel really nervous and even more sick. Plus, my left hand and the left side of my back (not right in the middle) are aching. Could this...

Accepted Answer

Your symptoms of increased heart rate, nervousness, left hand ache, and left side back pain could be due to anxiety or stress. However, it is important to rule out any underlying heart condition. I recommend you take a tablet of propranolol 10mg to help lower your heart rate and reduce anxiety. You can take it up to three times a day as needed. Additionally, you can take acetaminophen 500mg for the left hand and back pain. Make sure to rest and try some relaxation techniques to help alleviate your symptoms.

Question 5

I'm 21 and I've been on Concor Cor 2.5mg since May 2018. I'm wondering if there's a way to stop taking it for good. I've attached my 2D echo results. Can you tell me if it's possible to withdraw from this medication permanently?

Accepted Answer

yes

Question 6

My heart sometimes beats really fast, like between 80 and 95 beats per minute. Does that sound normal? I'm feeling kind of scared about it, so can you help me understand what's going on?

Accepted Answer

A heart rate of 80 to 95 beats per minute can be considered normal for many individuals, especially during periods of physical activity or stress. However, if you are experiencing a consistently elevated heart rate at rest and are feeling anxious about it, it is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a dosage of 25mg to help lower your heart rate and reduce anxiety.
