I'm really worried because I've been on amlogard 5 mg and olmesar 10mg for my blood pressure for the past five months. Now, my gastroenterologist has told me I have an intestine infection and said I should stop the olmesar. They suggested I take a different medication instead, but I'm not sure what I should switch to. Do you have any advice on what could work with the amlogard?

I'm feeling some pain on the left side of my chest, and it honestly feels like it's coming from my heart. It's not excruciating, but it's definitely scary and annoying, almost like little stabbing pains. Should I be concerned that this could be a sign of a heart attack?

It's important to rule out any serious conditions like a heart attack. However, based on your description, it could also be musculoskeletal or related to anxiety. To help alleviate the pain and discomfort, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, if you have a history of acid reflux, you can try taking Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast to see if it helps with the symptoms. Remember to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about some ongoing chest pain I've been experiencing. After a rod hit me in the chest back in November 2015, I had a brief issue with my breathing, which seemed to get better. But then, by February 2016, I started having severe chest pain. I got checked at CMH Narayana Hrudayalaya to see if it was related to my heart, but everything came out fine. This pain keeps coming back, and it's like a muscle pull behind my rib cage. Could this be a problem with my heart or even my lungs?
