I'm having this chest pain on the left side about 30 to 40 minutes after falling asleep, and it even comes with a bit of sweating. Once it starts, I can't find a comfortable position to sleep in without it hurting, so I've been sleeping in an easy chair for the past five days. I started taking Tonact TG for my high cholesterol, which is 290. I'm also on Thyronorm 75 and Telmisartan 40. My TSH levels and blood pressure are normal. Should I be worried about this chest pain and what should I do about it?

It sounds like you're experiencing discomfort that could be related to a few different factors, including your cholesterol and medications. Since the pain is persistent and affects your sleep, it's important to follow up with your doctor to rule out any heart-related issues and ensure the medications are working well for you. If the pain persists, consider an evaluation for possible musculoskeletal causes or other conditions that might be contributing.

View allI'm dealing with some chest pain and recently found out my blood pressure's been high at 14090 for the past two weeks, plus I've got high cholesterol. My doctor prescribed Rosuvas 10mg for the cholesterol but didn't give me anything for the blood pressure. Is it okay if I take EMBETA XR 50 along with Rosuvas just for a few days to manage the BP?
It is not advisable to take EMBETA XR 50 (Metoprolol) without consulting your doctor, especially since you have high blood pressure. Metoprolol is a beta-blocker that helps lower blood pressure and heart rate. It is important to have your blood pressure monitored regularly while taking this medication. If your doctor did not prescribe a blood pressure medication initially, it is best to follow up with them to discuss the need for adding EMBETA XR 50 to your current treatment plan.

I've been dealing with a really high pulse rate and Im not sure why. Every time I check it with my digital sphygmomanometer, it reads between 95 to 110, and thats without any physical activity. My blood pressure usually hovers around 105 over 55. On top of that, Ive been experiencing severe abdominal pain and a constant feeling of nausea for the past few weeks. Could these symptoms be related, and what should I do about it?
Your pulse rate is slightly elevated (95-110 bpm), and your blood pressure is on the lower side (10555). Combined with your abdominal pain and nausea, this could indicate dehydration, stress, or an underlying medical condition like gastritis or an infection. I recommend seeing a doctor promptly for a detailed evaluation and necessary tests.

I've noticed that my resting pulse rate usually hovers around 90, although it can dip slightly below that sometimes. Is this normal for me? Also, I've observed that my pulse rate spikes to around 120 after I eat and take a light walk, like after lunch. Is this something I should be concerned about? Just a month ago, I went for a health check-up, and both the ECG and 2D echo turned out normal. I'd love to get your thoughts on this.
A resting pulse rate of around 90 beats per minute can be considered within the normal range, although it is on the higher side. It is normal for the pulse rate to increase after eating or during physical activity. A pulse rate of around 120 beats per minute while walking after lunch is also within normal limits, especially if you were engaging in mild physical activity. Since your ECG and 2D echo results were normal one month back, it is reassuring that there are no underlying heart conditions causing these pulse rate variations. However, if you continue to have concerns about your pulse rate, it would be advisable to monitor it regularly and consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and advice on managing your pulse rate.
