I'm 23 and every morning when I wake up, I feel this weird pain on the left side of my chest, right above my breast. It usually goes away after about 5 to 10 minutes. Should I be worried about this?

The intermittent morning chest pain on your left side, resolving within 5-10 minutes, could be related to musculoskeletal issues, such as costochondritis (inflammation of cartilage connecting ribs to breastbone) or pectoral muscle strain; however, given your age and symptom location, other possible causes, including cardiac conditions, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or anxiety, should be explored

I'm really worried about my mom. She was out walking when she suddenly started choking and then complained about pain in her left arm. Thankfully, it all cleared up after a few minutes, but I'm concerned. Should I be worried about this? Could this be something serious?

These symptoms could be indicative of a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or a mini-stroke. It is important to seek medical attention immediately to rule out any serious underlying conditions. Medications such as aspirin or clopidogrel may be prescribed to prevent further episodes. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is recommended to monitor and manage any risk factors for stroke.

I've been dealing with anxiety and blood pressure issues and was initially on betacap tr40. My doctor switched me over to telma 20, but I started experiencing palpitations. So I saw another doctor who changed my medication to nebicard 2.5, but I'm still having those palpitations. Now, my psychiatrist is suggesting I take petril beta at night. Is it okay if I take nebicard 2.5 in the morning and petril beta at night? I'm a bit concerned and just want to make sure it's safe.

u have to take petril beta at night only.
