High blood pressure can cause you to have a headache, and this kind of headache signals an emergency. This occurs when your blood pressure becomes dangerously high. A hypertension headache will usually occur on both sides of your head and is typically worse with any activity.

Question

I'm noticing that my heart rate is going above 100-115 from time to time. My blood pressure is normal, but my hemoglobin level is 10.8. About a month ago, I had an ECG done, and it showed sinus tachycardia and IRBBB. But I'm still experiencing a heart rate over 100-115. Should I be worried about this? What might be causing it?

Question

I've been noticing a few things and I'm a bit concerned. Breathing is fine and I don't have any throat pain, but I've been experiencing some chest pain and occasionally my leg hurts. Sometimes there's mucus too. I haven't been exercising for the last month and have mostly been staying at home. Could this be related to my lack of activity, or should I be worried about something else?

Question

I've been prescribed Concor 2.5 for a week to help manage my panic attack symptoms, specifically the rapid heart rate and adrenaline rushes I get at night. Is it safe to continue taking it beyond a week? And if I decide to stop, is it okay to just quit all of a sudden? Also, is it alright to work out while I'm on Concor 2.5?
