I've been dealing with sinus bradycardia for about 56 months now, and my heart rate is usually around 55 bpm. My doctor suggested I take Orcibest 10mg for it. I'm really wondering if that's actually going to help me. Do you think it's the right medication for my situation?

I'm feeling really puzzled and a bit worried about these weird symptoms I've been having. My chest feels heavy on and off, and even though I've had loads of tests like ECG, echo, holter, TMT, and even a C-reactive protein test, everything came back normal. But then there's this pain in my arms and legs, with the left side feeling worse. In the last couple of days, I've also had some breathlessness. Eating and sleeping seem fine. There are these very brief chest pains that feel like an electric shock, just for a second. I've been trying to keep active by walking 5 km daily, but sometimes I find it hard because I get out of breath. What could be going on with me?

echo and angiography is advised,, cardiac opinion

My dad's been dealing with high blood pressure, around 155 over 105, and his creatinine levels were a bit high too, at 1.8. He used to be on 5mg Minipress and 10mg Calcigard, but then he got prescribed 20mg Calcigard by mistake. Now, his blood pressure hasn't changed, but his creatinine shot up to 2.6. Could this be because of the change in the Calcigard dosage?

yes could be probable cause..
