Suggest Treatment For Heart Palpitations And Tight Feeling In Chest

Ok so I m a 19 year old male. My whole life I ve been a active healthy young man, and lately I ve been having palpitations. I went to the doctor and my EKG was normal and my X-Rays where clear. It s like a real tight feeling right it the center of my chest directly above my stomach, and either after the doctor sent me home Last week the palpations seems to continue and not stop. While in college I started smoking weed 3-5 times a day. Since returning home in the beginning of May I have cut down my use. I m worried and scared and my doctor said she won t be able to see me until July 8th. With the symptoms I gave you can you help me and explain what may be going on. Thank You

Dr. Hanif warmly Welcomes you!

Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.
 
You have these issues due to weed. Stop it, and you will feel better. Don't take junk food too. Sodas of any kind, energy drinks, caffeinated drinks, all are banned for you to alleviate the symptoms.

If I was your treating physician I would like to prescribe you Tablet Tenormin 25mg ( Atenolol) by mouth 1 tablet when you feel palpitations. To be taken once a day. Consult your physician about prescription.


Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.
