I've been feeling a bit worried lately because I've started experiencing shortness of breath and a slight heaviness in my chest at night. Its not really painful, but its been happening a couple of times a week over the last few days. Im not sure whats causing it or if I should be concerned. Who would be the best person to talk to about this?

I'm experiencing some chest tightness and pain, and I'm not sure if it's due to an allergy or something else. I've also noticed some swelling in my face and a persistent cold feeling. It's as if my chest feels bigger and there's some issue with my stomach too. Could this be related to a chest problem, or could it be something else entirely that's causing these symptoms? What do you think might be going on?

I've just been told I have high blood pressure and today I took my first dose of Treples 406.25 in the morning. But now it's evening, and I've come down with a slight fever and a headache. Is it okay for me to take Nicip cold and flu tablet with everything else going on?

I've been feeling really anxious ever since I lost my job last month. The anxiety seems to be affecting my heart rate too. It was usually under 90, but in the last 20 days, I've noticed it's been higher. I've recently managed to get my resting heart rate down to under 75 by starting brisk walking and taking an arjuna tablet once a day. However, I've been experiencing some chest pain on the left side during my walks, and my heart rate shoots up to 130. I just did an ECG test because of this. Can you take a look at my ECG report and let me know what might be going on and the best way to handle it?

start doing exercises, drink plenty of water
