I am 23 years old and 32 weeks pregnant. My pulse oximeter app showed a heart rate of 310, which is extremely high compared to my usual readings of around 90. This discrepancy is causing me significant anxiety. How can I determine if the app's reading is accurate, and what should I do to alleviate my anxiety about this issue?

I am experiencing right upper quadrant pain that started yesterday and remains localized in the same area. The pain is sharp at times and dull at others.

I am an 83-year-old female with AFIB who has been on Eliquis for several years. Recently, I experienced a major hemorrhage after endoscopic sinus surgery, despite temporarily stopping Eliquis. My local cardiologist suggests the Watchman procedure if I do not want to continue with Eliquis or similar medications. I am a retired nurse and unfamiliar with this procedure. What are the risks and benefits of continuing Eliquis, switching to Warfarin, or undergoing the Watchman procedure?
