-Taking Disprin (aspirin) regularly, especially twice a day, isn't generally recommended without a doctor's guidance, as it can irritate the stomach lining and increase the risk of bleeding. Prolonged use may cause side effects like stomach ulcers or dige

Question

I've noticed that my blood pressure has gone up a couple of times in the last month after eating salty foods, though most days it's normal even if I've had salt. I'm overweight by around 12-14 kgs, and I'm curious if that's contributing to this issue. Like yesterday, after having salty tea, I got a bad headache at the back of my head, and when I checked my BP with our home digital machine, it read 14090. I drank some water, and it seemed to go back to normal. I'm wondering, how accurate are those home BP machines anyway? My lifestyle is pretty sedentary because of my online work. I talked to a doctor, and he said it's not the right time to start BP medications. What do you suggest?

I've been taking Ciplar 60 LA daily for the past 34 years as part of my antidepressant therapy as advised by my psychiatrist. My ECG always shows an abnormal T wave progression. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it normal in my case?

Question

I'm experiencing this odd pressure on my chest, specifically on the left side where I've drawn a white line in the photo I sent. It's not quite pain, but more like an uncomfortable pressure. It tends to be noticeable when I lie down, which is pretty uncomfortable, but the pressure seems to go away when I'm up and walking around. There's no pain when I breathe or do exercises, which is confusing me. A few days ago, I was dealing with chest pain but it seems to have lessened. There's this constant pressure, though, especially when I'm lying down. Also, I had sinus tachycardia with a heart rate of 115 BPM during my first echocardiogram. The second one, however, was 77 BPM, and my blood pressure was 13383 mg. I'm wondering if all this is connected and if I should be worried about it?
