Why do most heart attacks occur in the morning?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Our body has Carcadian system and this rythm dips and raises throutout the day. This system sends out PA1-1 cells which blocks the blood clots from breaking down. Another reason is when we wake up, brain floods the heart with hormones which increases the load on the heart .

View allI'm really worried about my blood pressure because even though I'm taking telma 40, austin cv, and dilgem 90 at night, my bp still isn't under controlit's currently 13797 with a pulse rate of 108. I also discovered I have a 2-80 block in my angiography, though my ECG seems normal. What should I do, and should I be concerned about anything else?
Your current blood pressure reading of 13797 is still elevated, especially with a pulse rate of 108. Since you have significant blockage in one of your coronary arteries, it is important to manage your blood pressure effectively. I recommend adding a calcium channel blocker to your current medication regimen. You can ask your doctor about adding a medication like Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, regular exercise, and stress management can also help in controlling your blood pressure.

I've been having chest pains and I'm super worried it might be related to my heart even though all my tests like ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-ray came back normal. The fear started after the pandemic and now I'm constantly thinking about "what if" something's wrong. I've had heart palpitations about 10-15 times and even small muscle pains make me anxious about having a heart attack. What can I do about this constant fear? Do you think there's a chance I might really have heart issues? My last echo and TMT were 10 months ago and the most recent ECG was 20 days ago, all normal. Would love any advice or insight.
It sounds like you are experiencing a lot of anxiety and fear related to your heart health, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite multiple tests showing normal results, you are still worried about having a heart attack. It is important to address your anxiety and stress levels in order to overcome these persistent fears. One approach to consider is seeking therapy or counseling to help manage your anxiety and fears related to your heart health. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, or yoga may also be beneficial in reducing stress and anxiety. In terms of medication, you can consider taking an anxiolytic medication such as lorazepam (Ativan) as needed for acute episodes of anxiety or panic attacks. The usual dosage is 0.5-2 mg taken orally 2-3 times a day as needed. It is also important to maintain a healthy lifestyle by eating a balanced diet, engaging in regular physical activity, and getting an adequate amount of sleep. These lifestyle changes can contribute to overall well-being and may help alleviate some of your anxiety symptoms. Remember, it is essential to address your mental health concerns in addition to your physical health. If you continue to experience persistent anxiety and fear despite normal test results, consider consulting with a mental health professional for further evaluation and support.

I'm looking at these ECG results, and I'm kinda worried. It mentions things like incomplete right bundle branch block, sinus tachycardia, and negative T-wave anterior. There's also something about right atrial enlargement. It even says "probably abnormal ECG." Should I be concerned about these findings? Is any of this stuff serious? I'm really not sure what all these terms mean for my health.
