Why do heart attacks happen at night?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Researchers found that at around 6:30 a.m. the circadian system sends out an increased amount of PAI-1 cells which blocks blood clots from breaking down. The more PAI-1 cells in the blood, the higher the risk for a blood clot that leads to a heart attack

I'm really worried about my 19-year-old daughter's ECG results. The report mentions things like 802 Sinus Tachycardia and 611 T Abnormality Flat T. I'm not sure what all this means and if there's anything serious that we should be concerned about. Could you help me understand if these findings indicate any major health issues? I'm feeling quite anxious and would appreciate any insights you could offer.

I've been feeling my pulse really strongly all over, like in my head and fingers, for about a year now. I went to see a doctor and he did an ECG, but it came back normal. He said it's not a disease and might just be stress. I'm really curious if there's anything I can do to make this go away. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Having a strong pulse that can be felt in various parts of the body can indeed be related to stress. To help reverse this, you can try relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises, yoga, or meditation to help reduce stress levels. Additionally, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg once daily) to help lower your heart rate and reduce the sensation of a strong pulse. It's important to continue following up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
