View allI'm really worried because lately Ive been experiencing this weird heart fluttering sensation. Its been happening for the last 15 days whenever Im asleep. I suddenly wake up feeling unconscious, and its like I cant even express what Im going through. For a moment, I seriously feel like Im dying, but then after a few seconds, I feel okay again. It happened again last week and then today during the day when I napped. Its super scary and I dont understand whats going on or why this is happening when Im sleeping. Can you please help me figure out what this might be?
Hii, it sounds like you are experiencing episodes of heart palpitations or fluttering. This can be a concerning symptom and it's important to get evaluated by a healthcare professional. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate and reduce palpitations. It is important to follow up with a doctor for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I'm looking at my report and it notes that I have a sinus rhythm with a heart rate of 81 and marked right axis deviation. I'm a bit anxious and just want to understand if this is normal or if there's something I should be concerned about. Could you help clarify what this means for my health?
report is not normal.. right axis deviation is of serious underlying pathology.AN ECHO is advised and cardiac opinion..probable diagnosis could be right ventricular hypertrophy, rt bundle branch block embolism, lung diseases,hyperkalemia and septal defects...

I'm really worried about my husband. About eight months ago, he had some chest pain, so we went for a check-up. They did an ECG, an echo, and a stress test, and thankfully everything seemed normal, but he had high blood pressure and his triglycerides were around 250. He's been on medication for BP since then, including Prolomet XL 50, Hytel H, Tonact D, and Nulong 5mg. But just yesterday, he experienced chest pain again. We went to the doctor and did another ECG, which came back normal. The doctor said it might be muscle pain and gave him some pain medicine. I'm still worried it could be related to his heart. Should we be looking at other tests, like an echo again or something else, to be sure everything's okay with his heart?
It is good that your husband's ECG results have been normal. Since he has a history of chest pain and high triglycerides, it is important to monitor his heart health closely. Given the symptoms of chest pain, it would be advisable to follow up with an echocardiogram (echo) to assess the structure and function of the heart. Additionally, considering his risk factors, a stress test or a coronary angiography may also be recommended by the doctor to further evaluate his heart health and rule out any underlying heart conditions. In the meantime, continue with the prescribed medications including Prolomet XL 50 for blood pressure, Hytel H for hypertension, Tonact D for cholesterol, and Nulong 5mg.
