I'm dealing with high blood pressure and taking amlodipine. My doctor also gave me sertraline because I mentioned I was having anxiety attacks, but I'm not sure if that's what they really are or if they're related to my hypertension. When these episodes happen, it feels like I have a noise in my head, like static or the sound of the sea, and I get a weird sensation like I'm bouncing on springs, even when I'm just sitting. It also occurs when I'm walking. Is this connected to my medications, or should I be concerned about something else?

I'm taking ecospirin 75 every night at 9:30 PM, but sometimes I accidentally miss a dose. I'm worried about what could happen if I skip a day or two. Could you let me know if there would be any side effects or anything I should be aware of?

I'm wondering if it's okay to take pand before meals and inderal la 20 mg after eating each day. I was prescribed inderal la for my palpitations, but I also have some gastric problems. Could this medication schedule work for my situation?
