I've been told to take either Telma 40 or Tazloc 40 for my blood pressure. Are they actually the same, or do the two medications have different compositions?

Question

I'm really concerned about my mom's health. She's had a history of cardiac attacks and has been on various medications since her last one. Right now, she takes Arkamin in the morning and night, and Ecosprin 75 in the afternoon. She also uses Nexpro 40 and Ganaton 50mg for acidity. The problem is that her blood pressure is consistently around 160-170100 throughout the day, even with medication. There are times it might drop to 13070, but it doesn't last. We've had all these tests done, like Thyrocare X, ECG, and ECO, and everything comes back normal. What's puzzling and worrying is that she's very sensitive to light and sound, her heartbeat increases when exposed to these, especially in the evening. Plus, she feels like her heart skips a beat when there's noise. She's been eating really light and avoiding spicy food, following her angiography back in 2013 where the doctor recommended sticking to medication. I'm really trying to understand why these symptoms are persisting now and what steps we should take next. Any insights?

Question

I've been having this chest pain on my right side and in my back, and it's pretty constant. I've noticed it eases a bit when I use a hot water bottle, but then it returns after about five minutes. I tried taking Mobizox to help with the pain, but it seems to come back even more after like four hours. What could be causing this, and what should I do next?

Question

I'm really worried because I've been told I have a hole in my heart that can't be cured, and the doctors I've seen said I might not live much longer. Is there anything else I can do or maybe another opinion I should seek? I just want to understand my options better.
