I'm feeling really anxious because I'm going for an echocardiogram soon, and I'm worried that my heartbeat might increase during the test. Do you think it's okay for me to take Cipla 10 before the echo? Will it affect the results in any way?

Question

I've been having chest and upper back pain for about 34 months now. I've done the ECG twice, and the results were normal, and my X-ray showed nothing unusual. But the pain keeps spreading more and more each day and can start or stop at any time. I don't have cough, fever, or vomiting or anything like that. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?

Question

I'm taking Navicard 5 mg regularly, as prescribed by my doctor. But recently, I've been having some mild chest pain, so I saw a cardiologist who prescribed Angizem CD 90 for my morning dose. He didnt mention anything about the Navicard though. Now I'm wondering, should I be taking both medications, or just one of them?

Question

I'm a bit puzzled about my blood pressure readings. I got a TMT, ECG, and blood tests for my heart, and everything came back normal. But sometimes when I check my BP, the first reading is 15090, and then right after, it drops to 13090. It's happened a couple of times. Why could this be happening?
