I've been experiencing this sharp, pricking pain in my chest for about a week, and I'm really not sure what it could be. It doesn't stay in one spot and sometimes it's on the left, sometimes on the right, near the left breast, or even below the shoulder. I got both an ECG and an echo, and they both came back normal, but I'm still worried. Any idea what might be going on?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been taking Telpres 40 for her blood pressure, but it's still 170100. It's been sticking around 150100 for a while now. I'm not sure what to do, could you give some advice?

Along with telpres 40 other medicines need to be added, after clinical evaluation.
