Question

I've been feeling like someone is poking me with a pin or needle in my chest. It's not exactly painful, more like a sensation that's making me feel restless. It's been going on for about a week and seems to have gotten slightly worse. I'm a bit worried because visiting hospitals seems risky right now with all the COVID outbreaks. Do you have any idea what might be happening to me?

Question

I'm currently taking Olmintrio 40 for high blood pressure. My recent readings are around 12075. Do you think I should keep taking my meds, or maybe it's okay to stop for now?

Question

Is it normal for my resting heart rate to sometimes drop to 55? I've been keeping an eye on it using my Apple Watch, and I've noticed this happens on about six days over the past month. I'm currently taking Ciplar LA 20 since July, and before that, I was on Petril Beta for two months. Also, when I exercise, my heart rate shoots up to between 150 and 180 but returns to normal pretty quickly after I stop. I had a stress echo test done last December and everything was fine, but I'm wondering if I need any further testing. What do you think?

Question

I've been feeling a sharp pin-like pain on the left side of my chest, close to my armpit, and it's moving towards my shoulder blade. I've been dealing with cervical spondylosis, so I'm not sure if it's related to that. This started yesterday and happened before, but usually, it goes away in a few hours. This time it's been almost a day and it's still bothering me. I'm also noticing a burning sensation in my throat. What do you think might be going on here?
