I'm feeling some discomfort with a bit of pain and gas on my left side. I've attached my ECG report. Could you take a look at it and let me know if everything seems normal? Also, how can I tell the difference between gas issues and heart-related pain?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
To distinguish between gas pain and heart pain, gas pain is often described as a sharp, jabbing pain that may move around and is usually accompanied by bloating or burping. Heart pain, on the other hand, is typically a dull, pressure-like discomfort that may radiate to the arm, neck, or jaw, and is often associated with other symptoms like shortness of breath or sweating. If you are experiencing persistent or severe chest pain, it is important to seek medical attention for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try taking an over-the-counter antacid like Tums for gas relief.

View allI've been dealing with high blood pressure around 175110 and usually manage it with Amlopress AT, but lately, Ive had to take Calcigard 5mg and Lasix 40mg to try and control it. It seems to help for a bit, but then my pressure goes right back up after a few hours. What could be causing this, and is there something else I should be doing or considering? My pulse is around 63 if thats important.
. It seems like your blood pressure is not well controlled with the current medication. I would recommend discussing with your doctor about adjusting your treatment plan. In addition to your current medications, you may benefit from adding a different class of antihypertensive medication such as an ACE inhibitor or a beta-blocker. For example, you can consider adding a medication like Concor 5mg (beta-blocker) or Ramipril 5mg (ACE inhibitor) to help better control your blood pressure. It's important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
