I'm 20 and have had high BP for a year now. I used to take Metosartan 5040 but my doctor just switched it to Stamlo Beta. Is this a good change for me?

View allI'm really worried about my blood pressure, which is at 8065. I feel so weak and am considered underweight, weighing only 39.2 kg at a height of 5'3". I'm currently taking Health OK multivitamins to help with my low blood pressure, but I'm anxious if these numbers will ever get to normal. Do you think I'll be able to achieve a normal heart rate, or is this something I'll have to deal with forever? I'm only 20, so this has me pretty concerned.
Low blood pressure can be concerning, especially if it is causing symptoms like weakness. In your case, being underweight may also contribute to low blood pressure. To help increase your blood pressure and improve your symptoms, you can try increasing your salt and fluid intake, wearing compression stockings, and eating frequent small meals. To address your anxiety and support your heart rate, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol. The usual starting dose for Metoprolol is 25mg once daily, which can be adjusted as needed under medical supervision. It's important to continue monitoring your blood pressure and heart rate regularly, and make lifestyle changes to support your overall health. If you have persistent concerns or symptoms, it's advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm 22 and I've been experiencing chest pain for a few months now. My X-ray and ECG both came back normal, but the pain keeps coming and going within about 30 seconds. It switches locations, sometimes on the left side, other times on the right, and occasionally its in the upper or lower chest. I'm really worried about my heart. Could this actually be related to gas like the doctor suggested?
As you had done investigation like ecg so chest pain is not due to cardiac issue .Yes it can be because of acid reflus .Ans xray is also normal and you dont have any cough sneezing breathlessness and your age is so young so it could because of gas
