Question
Hello doctor,
I am 16 years old and have been drinking coffee for a long time. Before, I drank a lot, so my heart rate increased, I slept at night or I was restless, startled. After that, I stopped drinking for nearly a month, drinking only filtered water. These days, I see no symptoms of increased heart rate, but clearly feel the blood flow in the heart, in the hands and in the legs. So the doctor asked me to ask if increased heart rate, or startled when drinking coffee is a sign of disease? Please advise doctor, thank you doctor.

Hi friends,
With the question “What is the sign of an illness when increasing heart rate, or being startled when drinking coffee? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
You are 16 years old, have been drinking coffee for a long time (stopped drinking). In fact, you are young but you like to drink coffee and have already drank it, if you like it, it is not forbidden to continue drinking, but you should change the way you drink coffee to reduce stimulation (as you say).
You can refer to details at Drinking too much coffee is harmful to the heart?
And now you feel “there is blood circulating in your heart, hands, feet, ...). In fact, there is still blood through those areas, but the sensation of seeing you is abstract and has no pathological significance.
You can visit a Cardiologist for specific advice.
If you still have questions about increased heart rate, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wish you a lot of health.
Best regards!
