I'm thinking about stopping my hypertension medication because I've managed to control it myself. But I'm worried about any possible side effects from discontinuing the meds on my own. What should I consider before making this decision?

I'm experiencing this weird upper left chest pain that's been going on for the last three days, it seems to come back every few months or weeks. Thankfully it's stopped now, but I'm worried because now my left hand thumb's base has started hurting for two days. Could you help me figure out what's going on here? Why does this keep happening?

An ecg and cardiac markers are advised.

I'm currently taking Teleact 40 in the morning and Cilny 10 along with Concor 5 at night. I've been feeling kind of light-headed in the mornings though. Do you think it would be better to switch things up and take the Telmisartan and Cilnidipine combo in the morning and the Concor 5 at night instead? I just want to make sure I'm managing my blood pressure in the best way possible.

Switching to Telmisartan (brand name: Telma) + Cilnidipine (brand name: Cilacar) combination in the morning can help in managing your blood pressure more effectively. You can continue taking Concor 5 at night for better control. The recommended dosage for Telmisartan + Cilnidipine combination would be as per your doctor's prescription.

I'm really concerned about my heart health. Although my heartbeat is normal, I've been experiencing light body shakes. My breathing seems fine, but I can't help but worry about potential heart problems. What could be causing this?

To rule out cardiac issues. Get a ECG and 2D echocardiography done. If they are normal then get a TMT stress echo done.. If they are also normal then you have nothing to worry from heart side Meanwhile take Tab. Flexon Mr twice a day for 5 days Cap. Pantocid DSR 40 mg before meals twice a day for 5
