Question 1

experience tight band like feeling around chest, tachycardia/forceful heart beat, weak ... after eating. lasts a while. what can cause this?

Accepted Answer

Chest pain after eat: If the symptoms occur only after eating  -  makes me think less of a cardiac cause.   Sounds more like a hiatal hernia or GE reflux.  A hiatal hernia may press on the nerves around the heart causing your symptoms.    I might suggest that you see your family doctor  - get an EKG to exclude ongoing heart ischemia and consider an UGI x-ray or a barium swallow x-ray.    Good luck.

Question 2

what causes tachycardia? should a rapid heart beat be a concern?

Accepted Answer

Tachycardia: "Tachycardia" means rapid heart rate. Any stress will make your heart beat fast: fear, anxiety, pain, anger, walking, lifting your arms, standing up. Also: fever, anemia, XS thyroid, infection, pregnancy, and many many other conditions as well. The underlying cause should be addressed if you are concerned.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Depends: A thorough work up should be done . If possible the exact type of arrythmia should be determined and this will help target and treat the underlying problem. As a general rule beta blockers will help . If its atrial fibrillation then anticoagulation may be needed.Occasionally eps will be needed an ablation used to treat the problem.Blood work to check for electrolyte, thyroid levels , echo for mvp..

Accepted Answer

Primary physician: I am assuming you are no using any street drugs. Also assuming ekg, stress test, holter were negative. Excessive coffee, energy drinks, and other medication can give your symptoms. Endocrine conditions like overactive thyroid. Anxiety disorders another possibility. I will continue with a good trusted physician that can expend time with you and get a good history and physical.

Accepted Answer

: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, in isolation, none of the results are a cause for concern, though findings are suggestive of inflammation.   Wish you good health!

Question 9

sudden tingling left earlobe following by nausea, rapid heart beat, sweating. tachycardia for about an hour. heart tests normal. partial seizure?

Accepted Answer

More tests: It could be a number of things. You should consult your primary care doctor to get some more tests done. If all the rest of the tests are negative, another possibility is panic attack.

Question 10

i am 26 years old. sometimes after walking my heart beat gets fast.what's the reason?

Accepted Answer

Fast heart beat: Unfortunately, from your history it is not clear how fast it gets. Up to 100 and even 110 if regular are normal if fair amount of exertion is experienced. With intense exercise pulse may rise to 140-160 beats per minutes. More history about your heart beat is needed to determine if anything is wrong. An ECG may further help determine if there are heart abnormalities.
