Chest pain can have various causes, including heart problems, muscle strain, or digestive issues. Since chest pain can be a symptom of a serious condition, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) at a dose of 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. However, if the chest pain is severe or persistent, it is crucial to seek immediate medical help.

Question

I'm really concerned about how blood pressure might affect heart health, especially since I'm diabetic. Can you explain whether high blood pressure or low blood pressure is more likely to lead to heart failure for someone in my situation?

Question

Why do I get this pain in my chest on the left side when I climb stairs or even shout? I've done all the tests like ECG, Echo, TMT, and CT angio, and they all came back normal. The CT showed no blockage but mentioned deep myocardial bridges. My cardiologist says it's not angina or heart disease but put me on Beta lock 0.25 twice a day. Anytime I get startled awake or shout when I'm angry, the pain starts again, spreading to my left back, arms, and neck. It's so confusing because the doc says it's nothing serious, but the pain keeps coming back and it's worrisome. Do you have any idea what might be going on?

Question

I'm having this weird feeling of short breath and some dizziness, especially when I try to sleep. It's been happening just recently, and it's getting kinda uncomfortable. I had a full body check-up not too long ago, including heart tests like an ECG, echo, diabetes check, and a TMT, and they were all normal. My weights around 110 kg, and my blood pressure is 14090. I'm really puzzled about what could be causing this mild shortness of breath. Any ideas?
