i agree what you told me well i would like to add some more things like heartbeat problem was never before and not it was daily, but from when i got my cholesterol again it occurs again and 2nd thing iz my stomach i told my doctor as well that whatever i eat my stomach iz like too much i did eat when i dnt eat much and gastric problem comes and gives me pain in stomach a lot. yes you are right from many days about weeks i didn't able to sleep well but this time doctor gave me some gastric medi as well which are for some ulcer thing and some pain killers. i would let u know 1 more thing iz my heart beat which i can feel the sound of palpitation all the time but sometimes its better and when i suddenly stand up or wake up it goes fast n fast. i asked u 1 more thing that was related to some vein which are on chest i told u i feel these are beating so whn i press my hand there i feel better. anyways i am very thankful that u did reply me and i will wait for ur this reply as well and hope u will suggest me some more better things. kindly tell me what is monitor thing u told me to do?
Regards
Hasan
Answer Dear Hasan,
The factt that pressing on your chest helps means that the discomfort is from your chest wall and no threat to life or health. The event monitor is a little box you carry with you that records your electrocardiogram a few minutes before and after you press a button on the box to indicate that you're feeling fast heart beat, or skipped beats.
