Hey, I'm currently taking Tazloc 40mg because my blood pressure is around 100152. I'm 38 years old, weigh 100 kg, and I'm 5'10". I'm wondering if I'll need to stay on this medication for the rest of my life. Could you give me some advice?

It is important to continue taking it as prescribed by your doctor to effectively manage your blood pressure. Lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and a balanced diet can also help in managing high blood pressure. Regular monitoring and follow-up with your healthcare provider are essential to determine the long-term need for medication.

I'm really concerned about this pain I'm experiencing. It's not just in my chest but also in my back near the shoulder blade, and it's accompanied by headaches and some numbness in my left hand. I've also been feeling short of breath. I had an ECG done, and it came back normal. What could be going on here? Should I be worried or looking into something else?
