I've been dealing with high blood pressure for about 20 years now, and despite taking medications like atorvastatin, aspirin, hydralazine, and amlodipine, it doesn't seem to be improving. I'm really worried and wondering if there's anything else I should be doing or trying. Any advice?

Homeopathy Potency: 3X vs. 30C

3X and 30C are not the same:

  1. 3X: Represents a 3-times dilution of the original substance, with a relatively lower potency.
  2. 30C: Represents a 30-times centesimal dilution (1:100^30), with a significantly higher potency.

Substitution not recommended:

  1. Consult your homeopath: Before making any changes, consult with your prescribing homeopath to ensure the correct potency and treatment plan.
  2. Potential differences in efficacy: Using a different potency may affect the treatment's efficacy or cause unforeseen interactions.

To ensure safety and efficacy:

  1. Follow the prescription: Adhere to the original prescription and recommended potency.
  2. Consult before making changes: Discuss any concerns or questions with your homeopath before modifying your treatment plan.

I'm a 22-year-old male and recently had a panic attack that lasted for three days on September 6, 2017. Ever since then, I've been noticing that even the smallest tasks make my heart rate go way up. I got an ECG done, and it showed sinus rhythm and an incomplete right bundle branch block. I'm really not sure what to do next. Should I be worried? What steps should I take from here?

I'm trying to figure out what's going on with this persistent chest pain. I did a TMT on May 25 as advised by my doctor, and it turned out negative, but the pain in the middle of my chest just won't go away. I dont smoke or drink and there's no family history of heart disease. I've been dealing with asthma for the last two years. The pain doesn't increase when I walk or run, but it's really starting to make me anxious and it's even affecting my sleep. What can I do to alleviate this pain?

As per your description, it seems like you are experiencing chest pain despite a negative TMT result. Since you have a history of asthma and the pain is not worsening with physical activity, it may not be directly related to your heart. To help alleviate the chest pain and manage your anxiety, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like paracetamol (e.g., Tylenol) at a dose of 500mg to 1000mg every 4-6 hours as needed. Additionally, you can try using a heating pad on the area of discomfort and practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation to help with your anxiety and improve sleep. If the chest pain persists or worsens, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
