I'm yawning a lot at strange times and it's happening quite often. I've also had some pain on the left side of my chest, along with discomfort in my jaw and left neck sometimes. Every now and then there's this stabbing pain between my shoulder blades. I've had heart tests and an X-ray done, and they didn't show anything wrong. Sometimes I also feel short of breath. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on. Any ideas?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or stress, which can manifest as excessive yawning, chest pain, jaw pain, neck pain, and stabbing pain between the shoulder blades. Breathlessness can also be a symptom of anxiety. I recommend trying to manage your stress levels through relaxation techniques, exercise, and possibly counseling. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for the pain. If symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm experiencing heart palpitations and my heart beats faster sometimes along with chest discomfort, all this in the past six months or so. I've had an ECG, echo, and TMT and they all came back normal. My blood pressure at home is usually below 12085, but when I go to the doctor's office, it shoots up to 13090 and sometimes even 150100. Should I be worried about this difference in blood pressure readings, and could it be linked to the palpitations I'm feeling?
Since six months some time feel heart palpitation and beat faster and chest discomfort. I have done ecg echo tmt everything normal. Bp also below 12085 at home But doctor clinic always 13090 some time 150100. It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of palpitations and chest discomfort despite normal results on your ECG, echo, and TMT tests. Your blood pressure readings are also slightly elevated at the doctor's clinic. In such cases, your symptoms may be related to anxiety or stress. I recommend trying a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (dosage: 25-50mg once daily) to help with the palpitations and chest discomfort. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may also be beneficial.

I'm reaching out because I've been on medication for hypertension for a couple of years now, specifically taking Losartana 50 mg each night before I sleep. During the day, my blood pressure usually stays around 13585. I've heard from several people that apple cider vinegar might help to manage my blood pressure better and maybe even help me reduce my dependency on the medicine. I don't have a family history of hypertension, but right now, I'm at 92 kg, 5'9", and 32 years old. Do you think it would be beneficial for me to try apple cider vinegar for my situation?
Apple cider vinegar may have some benefits in helping to control blood pressure, but it is not a substitute for prescribed medication. It is always important to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your treatment plan. In your case, since your blood pressure is still not within the desired range during the day, it would be best to continue taking LOSARTAN-A 50 Mg as prescribed. However, you can also incorporate apple cider vinegar into your diet in moderation for its potential health benefits. It is recommended to dilute it in water and consume it before meals.
