I'm having some concerns and would love your advice. My blood pressure is at 160100 and I'm also experiencing a fever. I used to have anxiety and was on etizolam beta .25, but I stopped taking it about a year ago. A year ago, all my tests like ECG, echo, TMT, and blood work were normal.

I'm a 28-year-old guy and I've been smoking weed daily since I was nine. I don't drink at all, and I consider myself to be quite fit. But for the last 34 days, I've noticed the left side of my chest is a bit swollen and sore, although it's not painful to touch. Should I be worried about this? Could it be something serious?

It's concerning that you are experiencing swelling and soreness in the left side of your chest. This could be due to various reasons, including inflammation, muscle strain, or even a potential underlying health issue. However, given your history of smoking weed since a young age, it's important to consider the impact of smoking on your respiratory and cardiovascular health. I recommend that you stop smoking immediately and seek medical attention for a proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) to help with the pain and swelling. However, it's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for a thorough assessment and appropriate treatment.

I'm having some slight chest pain and noticed a little change in my ECG readings. Could this be related to the medications I'm taking? I'm currently on Ecosprin, Thinrin, Concor, Coversyl, and Crestor. Should I be worried about this combination of medicines affecting my heart?

The chest pain and ECG variation could be due to underlying cardiovascular issues. The medications you mentioned are commonly used for heart conditions: - ECOSPRIN (Aspirin) is a blood thinner and antiplatelet medication. The usual dosage for heart conditions is 75-325mg per day. - THINRIN (Clopidogrel) is also a blood thinner and antiplatelet medication. The usual dosage is 75mg per day. - CONCOR (Bisoprolol) is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure and heart conditions. The usual dosage ranges from 2.5mg to 10mg per day. - COVERSYL (Perindopril) is an ACE inhibitor used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. The usual dosage ranges from 2mg to 16mg per day. - CRESTOR (Rosuvastatin) is a statin medication used to lower cholesterol levels. The usual dosage ranges from 5mg to 40mg per day. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.
