I've been dealing with high bp since 2017 and have been taking medscinod and nebicard. Everything was stable until I gained around 10kgs after getting married, and now my bp is often spiking to 140150 and 9095. I've started incorporating some physical activity and diet control into my routine. Do you think I should consider changing my medications along with these lifestyle changes?

I'm really worried about my cousin. She's been having really bad chest pain on her left side since Thursday night. It hurts a lot when she touches it, and she can't lay down or sleep well. She tried taking Dolowin capsules, but it didn't help at all. What should we do? Could it be something serious?

Ecg and x-ray chest is advised to the patient.

I've been feeling my heartbeat really easily, especially when I'm trying to sleep. I've gone through all the checkups, including wearing a Holter monitor, and everything came back normal. But I still feel my heart, and sometimes it feels like there's a crushing sensation in my chest. What can I do to stop this from happening?
