I'm noticing this strange chest pain that only happens when I lie down to sleep. It's on the left side, and sometimes I even wake up in a sweat. This has been going on for about a week now. At first, I thought maybe it was just a muscle pull or something with my rib cage, but it's not going away. Interestingly, there's no pain when I'm up walking or sitting. I'm really struggling to sleep and have resorted to sitting and sleeping in an easy chair for the past five nights. I'm also managing high cholesterol at 290 with Temlistran 40 mg and taking Thyronorm 40. Could there be a connection here, or should I be worried about something else going on?

I'm really worried because I was initially diagnosed with high blood pressure at 14690 due to stress and overworking, but it dropped to 14090 the next day. My doctor put me on Amfirst AT, and after taking it for a week, my blood pressure became really low at 11070. I don't usually have issues with blood pressure, and I think the medication made it too low. What should I do now?
It seems like the medication Amfirst AT, which contains Amlodipine and Losartan, has lowered your blood pressure too much. You should stop taking the medication and consult your doctor immediately. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance on managing your blood pressure.
