View allI'm really concerned about my husband's heart; his heartbeat is always too fast. He says it's been like this since he was a child. Should I be worried about this?
Hi, if your husband's heart rate is consistently fast, it is important to have him evaluated by a doctor to determine the underlying cause. One common condition that can cause a fast heart rate is supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Medications like Metoprolol (25-100mg) can be prescribed to help control the heart rate. However, a proper diagnosis is necessary to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

I'm having trouble getting my Telpres LN 40 prescription for my blood pressure because my doctor is unreachable and the local pharmacy doesn't have it. Could you recommend a good alternative? I'm a bit worried about not having my medication.

I'm wondering if it's normal for my heart rate to go up to 150-160 when I'm doing cardio at the gym or climbing stairs, and then drop to around 110 when I go for a walk. I've had several ECGs done and just had an echo two days ago, and everything seems fine. My resting heart rate usually falls between 55 and 100. Should I be concerned about these numbers?
It is normal for your heart rate to increase during physical activities like gym cardio, climbing stairs, and walking. Your heart rate of 150-160 during intense exercise and 110 during walking is within a normal range for physical exertion. Since your ECG and echo results are normal, there is likely no underlying heart condition causing these heart rate variations. It is important to stay hydrated and listen to your body during exercise. If you experience any chest pain, dizziness, or fainting, please stop the activity and seek medical attention.
