I'm taking Betacap TR 40 in the morning, but my BP is still high and can't be controlled. I've been feeling dizzy for a few days, and yesterday I had a root canal done. Today, my blood pressure is 150110, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can you help me figure out what to do next?

I can't know the exact reason for your high blood pressure without a proper examination, but considering your symptoms and recent dental procedure, it is possible that the pain and stress from the root canal treatment may have contributed to the elevated blood pressure. I would recommend you to continue taking Betacap TR 40 as prescribed, and also consider adding an additional medication like Telma 40 (Telmisartan) once daily to help control your blood pressure. Additionally, try to manage your stress levels, get an adequate amount of rest, and follow a healthy diet low in salt and saturated fats. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm yawning a lot at strange times and it's happening quite often. I've also had some pain on the left side of my chest, along with discomfort in my jaw and left neck sometimes. Every now and then there's this stabbing pain between my shoulder blades. I've had heart tests and an X-ray done, and they didn't show anything wrong. Sometimes I also feel short of breath. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on. Any ideas?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or stress, which can manifest as excessive yawning, chest pain, jaw pain, neck pain, and stabbing pain between the shoulder blades. Breathlessness can also be a symptom of anxiety. I recommend trying to manage your stress levels through relaxation techniques, exercise, and possibly counseling. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for the pain. If symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm currently taking medication for my blood pressure, but my last reading was 14583. Should I think about adjusting my dose, or is this level considered controlled? Can you provide some guidance on what I should do?
A blood pressure reading of 14583 is slightly elevated. It is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication dosage. However, if your doctor agrees, you may need to increase the dose of your current medication or add an additional medication to better control your blood pressure. It is important to follow your doctor's guidance on medication adjustments.
