I'm dealing with some pretty persistent pain in my jaw, neck, shoulder, back, and left arm that I've had for the last three months, and the jaw pain just started about a week ago. About 25 days back, I had an ECG, TMT, and troponin blood test, and they all came back normal. Before that, three months ago, I had earlier done an ECG, TMT, and ECHO test, and those were normal too. But the pain hasn't gotten any better, and it's really stressing me out. Can you suggest what I should do next in terms of treatment or any other tests I need to consider?

Based on your symptoms and normal test results, it sounds like you may be experiencing musculoskeletal pain and tension. I recommend trying over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen for pain relief. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief gel containing diclofenac to the affected areas. For muscle relaxation, you can try a muscle relaxant medication such as cyclobenzaprine. It is important to maintain good posture, practice relaxation techniques, and consider physical therapy to help alleviate your symptoms. If the pain persists, further evaluation by a specialist such as a physiotherapist or orthopedic doctor may be necessary.

View allI'm a bit concerned about the variation in my heart rates. My sleeping heart rate is around 55 bpm, while my resting heart rate falls between 80-100 bpm. When I wake up, it usually ranges from 100-120 bpm, and during brisk walking, it goes up to between 130-160 bpm. I'm 26 years old, have a healthy BMI at 22.5, my cholesterol levels are where they should be, and my blood pressure and echocardiogram results are normal. Is it normal for my heart rate to vary this much?
Having variations in heart rate throughout the day is normal, especially in response to different activities and stress levels. However, if you are concerned about the wide range of heart rates you are experiencing, you may consider taking a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help regulate your heart rate and reduce fluctuations. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any medication.

I'm wondering if nebicard 2.5 could cause erectile dysfunction or maybe even affect sperm quality. I've heard that beta blockers might lead to ED, so I'm a bit worried. Could you shed some light on this?

I've been dealing with high blood pressure at 160100, and even after taking medication for four months, it hasn't improved. Yesterday, I was given two different prescriptions, and now I'm feeling dizzy in the morning and can't stand. The doctor mentioned some tests too. Is this something I should be worried about? Why isn't my blood pressure going down?
It is concerning that your blood pressure is still high despite taking medication for 4 months. The dizziness and inability to stand after taking the new medications could be due to their side effects. It is important to follow up with your doctor regarding these symptoms. Regarding why your blood pressure is not coming down, there could be various reasons such as medication resistance, underlying health conditions, lifestyle factors, or incorrect dosage. It is crucial to discuss this with your doctor to adjust your treatment plan accordingly. In the meantime, make sure to monitor your blood pressure regularly, follow a healthy diet low in sodium, engage in regular physical activity, manage stress, and avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.
