I keep waking up with chest pain in the morning. I've already had an ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-rays, and everything came back normal. I'm currently taking acidity tablets. Sometimes I even feel a pinning sensation in my chest. Do you have any advice on how I can make this pain go away?

I'm currently taking Inbloc 5mg twice a day since 2014 for my high BP and haven't been given an end date for it. I'm wondering if there's any way I can manage my high blood pressure without relying on medication like this forever. Also, I'm curious if I can switch to another medication like Nelovin Forte 5mg, C UDP, or Cilday 5mg instead of Inbloc. What are your thoughts?

yes C UDP can be used for hypertension. it is a calcium channel blocker

I'm feeling really concerned about some symptoms I've been having lately. There's this persistent pain on the left side of my chest and in my left arm, and it's been going on for about four months now. I did a TMT test three months ago and it came back negative, but I'm still worried. I got my ECG and Echo done a few days ago and was told it's anxiety. Could you take a look at the results I've attached and let me know what you think?

"Based on your symptoms and previous tests, it seems like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain or nerve-related pain rather than a cardiac issue. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the chest and arm pain. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief cream like diclofenac gel to the affected areas. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging. If the pain persists, you should follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management."
