Question

I'm 18 and I've started noticing that whenever I get up after sitting, I feel this heaviness in my chest and sort of like a suffocation feeling for a few seconds. Should I be worried about this or is it normal?

I've been dealing with high bp since 2017 and have been taking medscinod and nebicard.

I've started incorporating some physical activity and diet control into my routine. Do you think I should consider changing my medications along with these lifestyle changes?
