I'm a bit puzzled because my ECG is coming back normal, but I'm still feeling pain in my left arm and shoulder. Last Tuesday, my blood pressure was at 160, and now it's around 11064. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI'm a 54-year-old guy and I've been told I need a heart pacemaker. So, before I go for it, I want to know all the details. Like, how does this thing actually work? What kind of care do I need after getting one? Is it going to be comfortable to live with? And most importantly, should I be worried about any side effects from having a pacemaker?
A pacemaker is a small device that's placed in the chest or abdomen to help control abnormal heart rhythms. It uses electrical pulses to prompt the heart to beat at a normal rate. You may need a pacemaker if your heart beats too slowly, too quickly, or irregularly. After getting a pacemaker, you should avoid vigorous activities that could damage the device. It's important to attend regular follow-up appointments with your doctor to ensure the pacemaker is working properly. Most people find living with a pacemaker to be comfortable and are able to resume normal activities. However, you should avoid certain activities that can interfere with the pacemaker, such as using certain medical devices or undergoing certain medical procedures. Common side effects of a pacemaker include infection at the site of implantation, bleeding, bruising, or swelling. In rare cases, there may be complications such as a collapsed lung or a punctured blood vessel during the implantation procedure. It's important to discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been taking Telvas H and Nebicard 2.5 along with Amaryl M1, but recently she's been having these heart palpitations and feeling super uneasy after taking the Amaryl. It's kind of freaking us out because it's only started in the last few days. Do you think this could be a side effect or something we should be concerned about? What should we do to help her feel better?
it is one of the side-effects of tab amyryl antidiabetic medication. physician opinion .

I'm dealing with Rheumatoid Arthritis and I'm on methotrexate. Recently, I've been experiencing heart palpitations, like up to 12 times a minute, mostly in the evening, but now it's happening more often. My heart rate's been an average of 107, but right now it's at 91 bpm. I've got an appointment on Wednesday at the heart hospital to get things checked out. But I'm really curious about when this stuff would be considered an emergency. It's making me feel pretty uncomfortable. Any advice?
It is important to monitor your symptoms closely. If you experience severe chest pain, shortness of breath, fainting, or dizziness along with the heart palpitations, it could be a sign of a more serious issue and would be considered an emergency. Since you are already scheduled for an appointment at the heart hospital on Wednesday, it is best to discuss your symptoms with the healthcare provider there. They will be able to evaluate your condition and provide appropriate guidance.
