Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
At night when I lay down on a certain side my heart beat alot harder. It forces me to switch sides. It also happens when i am just laying down but not as often. Is this a problem? I have had my heart checked out before and they said it beats slowly but it is nor al because I am physically active(exercise, workout etc.)
Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to your body constitution. You should know that this is quite normal in tall and thin persons.
Anyway, I would recommend performing a cardiac ultrasound in order to examine your heart function and structure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka,
Cardiologist
