I'm experiencing really bad pain in my right chest and arm for the past three days. I missed taking my Stamlo tablets around the time the pain started. Usually, I take Rantax and Stamlo regularly. Could missing my medication be causing this pain, or should I be worried about something else?

View allI'm feeling a bit anxious because my heart rate has increased after I took pregabalin. Do you know how long this might last or what I should do next?
After taking pregabalin and experiencing an increased heart rate, it is important to monitor your symptoms closely. The increased heart rate can be a side effect of pregabalin. It is advisable to consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. To address the increased heart rate, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The recommended dosage for Metoprolol in this case would be 25-50mg orally once daily. This medication can help lower your heart rate and alleviate the symptoms you are experiencing. The duration of the increased heart rate effect can vary from person to person. It is recommended to continue monitoring your symptoms and consult your healthcare provider if the symptoms persist or worsen.

I'm dealing with high blood pressure, and it's sometimes reaching 160110. I also recently tested positive for inducible ischemia, and I'm really worried about what this means for my health. Could you please advise what steps I should take next?
It's important to manage your blood pressure to reduce the risk of complications. I recommend starting with lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. In terms of medication, you may benefit from taking an ACE inhibitor like Lisinopril at a starting dose of 10 mg once daily. Additionally, a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25 mg once daily can help with both high blood pressure and ischemia. Please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my dad. He recently visited a doctor who suggested some blood tests along with ECG and TMT. Thankfully, all his blood parameters, including cholesterol, TG, and lipid levels, are within the normal range. But during the TMT, he experienced very mild chest pain, and the doctor marked it as TMT positive for RMI. I'm really concerned about what this means. Should we be considering angiography and maybe even angioplasty for him?
