I'm a 39-year-old guy dealing with high blood pressure, and I've been on telmisartan 40 mg for like five years. Just recently, I found out I have Grade 1 Left Ventricular Hypertrophy. I don't have diabetes but my cholesterol is on the higher side, and I'm taking medication for anxiety too. I'm really stressed about this LVH diagnosis and can't help but wonder about my life expectancy with it. Is this something that's going to affect me in just the next couple of years? I'm from Australia and my appointment with the cardiologist is still two months away, so any insight before then would mean a lot to me.

View allI've been tracking my blood pressure for the past six months, and I've noticed my diastolic pressure is consistently between 95 to 106 and my systolic pressure is from 118 to 135. My pulse rate stays between 95 to 113. Occasionally, I feel this heaviness in my chest and get a bit short of breath. When my readings are high, I usually take half a tablet of nebistar h, and sometimes an anxit, but never at the same time. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do?
Your symptoms suggest that you may be experiencing hypertension and anxiety. Nebistar H is a combination medication containing Nebivolol and Hydrochlorothiazide, which helps in lowering blood pressure. I recommend taking one tablet of Nebistar H (Nebivolol 5mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg) once daily in the morning. For anxiety, Anxit tablet can be helpful. Anxit contains Alprazolam, which is used to manage anxiety disorders. You can take one tablet of Anxit (Alprazolam 0.25mg) as needed when you feel anxious. However, it is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really concerned because I've been experiencing some chest pain, tightness, a burning sensation, and even pain in my shoulder blade and hands. I've consulted two different doctors about this. The first doctor advised me to take Ab Flo capsules, but the second doctor was more cautious and said I should only take it if I have asthma. So the second doctor gave me Pantocid 40mg, but even after taking it for the past two days, I'm still not feeling any relief. Could you please guide me on what steps I should take next?
Probable diagnosis is GERD .Patient is advised tab pan d,orally once daily for 14 days ,syrup sucralfate 10ml thrice daily for 14 days.Also avoid spicy and hot items is advised to the patient.

I'm experiencing some pain in my chest on the right side of my body, especially when I take a deep breath. It's hard to pinpoint the exact spot, but it feels like it's near the upper part of my back. The pain gets intense with certain movements and when I breathe deeply. This happened about a year ago too, and the doctor did an ECG, but everything checked out fine back then. I don't have any other symptoms, and everything else seems normal. Could it be from bad posture while sleeping or sitting, or maybe it's a severe acidity problem? What do you think is causing this?
Patient is advised pulmonary function test(PFT).
