View allI'm experiencing palpitations when I'm sitting and even while trying to sleep, and it's really starting to scare me. Is it possible for someone to sense their own arrhythmia, or should I be worried about something else?
Yes, patients can sometimes sense arrhythmias themselves, especially when they experience symptoms like palpitations. In your case, since you are feeling palpitations while sitting and sleeping, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking a low dose of beta-blockers like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your palpitations.

I've noticed that my heart rate has been at 120 for the past three hours. I feel okay overall, just dealing with a minor cold. Could you help me understand why this is happening?
A heart rate of 120+ beats per minute can be elevated due to various reasons, including stress, anxiety, fever, dehydration, or certain medications. Since you mentioned having a minor cold, it is possible that your elevated heart rate is a response to the infection. To help lower your heart rate, you can try taking over-the-counter medication like **Acetaminophen** for fever and discomfort associated with the cold. Additionally, ensure you stay well-hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to seek medical attention for further evaluation.
