View allI've been experiencing this weakness in my chest and it's making me really anxious. I'm trying to figure out what's going on because sometimes I also get this heaviness when I breathe and feel dizzy. It even makes me feel shaky at times. What could be causing these symptoms?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to anxiety, which can cause chest tightness, dizziness, and shaky feelings. However, these symptoms can also be linked to other conditions such as heart issues or respiratory problems. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to get a proper evaluation and ensure it's not something more serious.

I'm a bit worried because I accidentally took Prolomet R 50 for the second time tonight. Should I also be taking Ecosprin to counteract any potential effects or just wait it out? I'm not sure what to do next.
Taking an extra dose of Prolomet R 50 (Metoprolol) can lead to low blood pressure and heart rate. It is important to monitor your blood pressure and heart rate closely. As for taking Ecosprin (Aspirin) along with Prolomet R 50, it is generally safe to take them together as prescribed by your doctor. However, it is always best to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.
