Is Cardivas 3.25 actually less powerful than Nebicard 5? I've got hypertension and was having some sexual side effects, so my doctor switched me from Cardivas 3.25 to Nebicard 5. My blood pressure wasn't under control on Cardivas, but it's been stable with Nebicard 5, and I haven't noticed any side effects. Currently, my blood pressure reads 12581 on the Omron 7120 machine. Does that reading seem okay, or is there something I should be worried about? Could you give me some advice on this?

Question

I've been having this chest pain that comes and goes for the past few days. It's mostly on the left side, near the center of my chest, and sometimes my breast hurts too, but they look normal. I also had this back pain between my spine and shoulder blade on the left side, but that went away, and the chest pain came back. It feels worse when I get up, like when you have an injury and start moving after resting. Any idea what could be causing this?

I'm dealing with high blood pressure since 2020 and I often have headaches and chest pain. My average blood pressure is around 150100. My doctor has prescribed me olmesartan 20mg. Should I be concerned about these symptoms, and is the medication dosage suitable?

Question

My fiance is just 22 and she's started having symptoms of bradycardia for about a month now. Her heart rate is averaging between 40 and 47 bpm, which seems super low, and she's getting tired really fast. She even has syncope sometimes. Her heart's actually healthy otherwise, but the doctor thinks it might be something with her body's natural pacemaker. They've recommended a pacemaker, but we're really hoping for a cure instead. Is there anything else we can explore?
