I'm 58 and was diagnosed with high cholesterol and high blood pressure a few years back. I've been on lipisafe Nebilong 5mg and telcad 40 since then. It's been working because my levels are under control now, but for a while, I've been having this annoying chest pain and some joint and muscle aches. I don't know if it's the meds or something else. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI'm concerned because my mother-in-law is scheduled for pacemaker surgery soon, and we recently lost a relative after a similar procedure. I'm really worried about what to expect. Whats the success rate of pacemaker surgeries? Are there usually a lot of complications afterward? And is it possible for someone to live normally after getting a pacemaker? Would love some guidance on what we should be prepared for.
Pacemaker surgery is generally considered a safe and effective procedure with a high success rate. Most patients experience significant improvements in quality of life and symptom relief after the surgery. While complications can occur, they are relatively rare and may include infection, bleeding, or issues with the pacemaker leads. Most people can live a normal, active life with a pacemaker, but it's important to follow the cardiologist's recommendations and attend regular follow-up appointments to ensure the device is functioning properly. Discuss your concerns with the cardiologist at Medanta Hospital to understand the specific risks and benefits in your mother-in-law's case.

I'm pretty worried right now because my heart rate is 92102 per minute while I'm just laying down. It's making me feel really nervous and even more sick. Plus, my left hand and the left side of my back (not right in the middle) are aching. Could this be some kind of warning sign?
Your symptoms of increased heart rate, nervousness, left hand ache, and left side back pain could be due to anxiety or stress. However, it is important to rule out any underlying heart condition. I recommend you take a tablet of propranolol 10mg to help lower your heart rate and reduce anxiety. You can take it up to three times a day as needed. Additionally, you can take acetaminophen 500mg for the left hand and back pain. Make sure to rest and try some relaxation techniques to help alleviate your symptoms.
