I've been dealing with hypertension for the last 12 years and usually take TOZAM Losartan 50mg Amlodipine 5mg in the morning. But about a month ago, I noticed some palpitations and sweating, and when I checked, my blood pressure was 95150. After getting checked at the hospital, they did an angiogram and said theres a minor artery disease with a 30% block. Now, they've put me on TOZAM and Prolomate XL 25mg Metoprolol 25mg every morning, plus Rosutor Gold Aspirin at night. I'm wondering, do I really need to be on both TOZAM and Prolomate, or is there something else I should be considering?

I'm really worried because I've been having chest pain for the past week. I got an ECG done today, and it showed something about left axis deviation. I've attached the ECG results. Can you help me understand what this means and what I should do next?

Left axis deviation on ECG can be indicative of various underlying conditions. Given your symptoms of chest pain, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your symptoms. I recommend you start taking Aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent any clot formation in the heart. Additionally, you should take Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help reduce the workload on your heart and control your blood pressure. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
