I'm really anxious about this pain I'm having under my left breast, and it's going down towards my rib. It's this heavy pressure that feels really tender and occasionally there's a sharp pain. I'm not sure what's going on, and it's pretty scary. There's also this sensation like bubbles in that area. What could this be? Is it something serious?

View allI've been on Olmetrack 20 for about a year now, but it's pretty expensive for me. My blood pressure is reading 13084. Do you think I could switch to Olmighty 20 since it's more affordable? I'm 28 years old, 5'3", and weigh 70 kg. Would that have any implications on my health?
Both Olmetrack 20 and Olmighty 20 contain the same active ingredient, which is Olmesartan. Olmighty 20 is a more cost-effective option for you. You can switch to Olmighty 20 with the same dosage as Olmetrack 20 to help maintain your blood pressure at a healthy level.

I'm really worried because her blood pressure is staying high despite taking several medications. We've done all the tests, and everything seems fine except her LDL is a little high. What could be causing this, and what else can we do to help get her blood pressure under control?
High blood pressure that is not well controlled despite taking multiple medications can be challenging. In this case, adding a medication such as Amlodipine (5mg) can help lower blood pressure effectively. Additionally, for high LDL cholesterol, Atorvastatin (20mg) can be prescribed to help lower LDL levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. It is important to follow up with regular blood pressure and cholesterol monitoring to adjust the treatment as needed.

I'm really concerned about my blood pressure shooting up to 14090 all of a sudden. I've had high BP since I was 33, and now I'm 38. My weight is around 110 kg and I'm 5 feet 7 inches tall, so I know I'm quite obese. I stress out easily and can get pretty angry. There's been times I've broken stuff at home when my family doesnt listen to me. I had my heart checked by a cardiologist 1.5 years ago with an Echo and a TMT, and everything seemed fine, but my BP still spikes. I was initially prescribed Telma 40 mg, and now Im on Stamlo 5 mg daily. My heart rate jumps to 130 if I walk fast for just a kilometer. Is this normal? I'm also an asthma patient, and I find myself taking deep breaths a lot. Why do these sudden BP spikes and high heart rates happen to me?
Based on your description, it seems like you are experiencing episodes of sudden high blood pressure due to various factors such as obesity, stress, and possibly uncontrolled anger. The combination of these factors can contribute to spikes in blood pressure. It's good that you have been evaluated by a Cardiologist and have undergone tests to rule out any underlying heart issues. To help manage your blood pressure, you are currently taking Stamlo 5mg, which is a brand name for Amlodipine. This medication helps to relax the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily and lowering blood pressure. In addition to this, it is important to make lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, reducing stress through relaxation techniques or counseling, and addressing anger management. Regarding your heart rate reaching 130 beats per minute during physical activity, it can be considered normal for some individuals, especially if you are not used to regular exercise. However, since you are also an Asthma patient, it is important to monitor your heart rate during physical activity and consult with your healthcare provider if you experience any concerning symptoms. Overall, it is essential to continue taking your medication as prescribed, make necessary lifestyle modifications, and keep track of your blood pressure regularly. If you have any further concerns or if your symptoms persist, please consult with your healthcare provider for a personalized treatment plan.
