I've been experiencing some weird sensations when I wake up early in the morning. It feels like something is fluttering in my chest or heart, and I get really uneasy with mild breathlessness and sometimes feel light-headed. My pulse seems to stay between 60 to 80, and my oxygen level is usually at 99, but I find myself swallowing suddenly and taking deep breaths without realizing it. My blood pressure was 9762 the first time I checked and 10869 the second time, with a pulse of 73. I had an ECG, 2D echo, and troponin tests done about a month ago, and they were all normal. I dont have any thyroid issues, and my lipid profile and haemogram were also normal. Even my chest X-ray from a month ago didn't show anything out of the ordinary. Now and then, I have a mild cough, and my lips get really dry when I wake up. I even heard a mild wheezing sound when I laughed. Should I be worried about these symptoms? What could be causing these sensations?

I'm having this breathlessness now and then, especially when I'm traveling or visiting new places. There's also this tightness right in the middle of my chest. Do you think this could be anxiety, or should I be worried about something related to my heart?

I'm a bit worried about the change in meds. Initially, after just taking Telma AM 40, there was swelling in the feet, and the doc switched to TELMA 40 which was alright for a while, but then my blood pressure got high again. Now they've got me on TELMIKIND 40 H S and NUMLO5 for the past 8 days. But after taking them, I start feeling really weak and lethargic just a few hours later. Is this normal side effect or should I be concerned about this change?

That could be imbalance between electrolytes once check his electrolytes and visit Physician for proper evaluationa and appropriate management
