I'm really anxious about my ECG report. It mentioned a possible lateral infarct with age undetermined. What exactly does that mean? Could it indicate I had a heart attack at some point? I'm confused because my cardiologist said the ECG was normal. Can you help clarify this for me?

View allI'm really worried about my dad's blood pressure. It's just not going down, even though he's taking Olmesar H 40 in the morning and Prolomate XL 50 at night. I came across something called Metocard AM and was wondering if it might be better for him than Prolomate XL 50. Also, do you think Prolomate XL 50 could lead to other health issues?
Metocard AM is a combination medication containing Metoprolol and Amlodipine, which can be effective in managing high blood pressure. In comparison to Prolomate XL 50, Metocard AM may be a better option for some individuals, but it ultimately depends on your dad's specific health condition and response to the medications. Prolomate XL 50 (Metoprolol) is generally well-tolerated, but like any medication, it can have side effects. While it is unlikely to cause "disease problems," common side effects of Metoprolol can include tiredness, dizziness, and slow heart rate. It is important to monitor for any unusual symptoms and consult with your healthcare provider if any concerns arise. It is recommended to discuss with your dad's healthcare provider or a pharmacist about the potential benefits and risks of switching to Metocard AM and to ensure the most appropriate treatment for his blood pressure management.

I'm a bit worried because I had an Eco ECG TMT and some blood tests done about a month ago, and everything came back normal. But now, for the past two days, I've been having this pain in my left chest, especially when I'm trying to sleep. It's hard to get comfortable, and breathing seems to make it worse when I'm lying down. Any idea why this is happening if all my tests were normal? Could you suggest any painkillers that might help?

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?
