I've been feeling breathless quite often and my gastroenterologist advised me to cut out salty, spicy, and oily foods from my diet and to take a PAN L tablet in the morning. It's been 10 days since I started this diet, but I'm still having the same symptoms. I'm worried if this might be a heart issue, though my echo and ECG came out fine three months ago. Could it be something to do with my lungs? I'm really anxious because sometimes I feel a heaviness on the left side of my chest, and at times my heart rate suddenly increases. My vitamin B12 levels are normal. I'm not sure if I should stick with this diet or consult someone else. Can you guide me on what to do?

View allCan drinking lots of water lower blood pressure?
Drinking water has role in blood pressure maintenance. When a person is dehydrated BP drops initially but later on kidneys reabsorbs more water rather than excreting in urine and vasopressin is released which constricts the blood vessels, both together can increase blood pressure. Hence, every person should drink at least 3 liters of water in a day to prevent dehydration and to maintain BP. One should also note that excess water intake should also be avoided which can put more stress on heart and cause fluid retention in the body.

For the past 4 to 5 days, Ive been dealing with an unusually fast heart rate, even when Im just resting. I havent been exercising for a few months now, and I can really feel my heart pounding throughout my body. It gets worse at night and when I checked, my heart rate was 103 bpm, and sometimes its 95 bpm, but it never goes below 90, even when Im just sitting. Im staying hydrated and I dont feel anxious, but Ive started having this chest pain that feels like when someone presses on a bone. What tests should I consider doing to find out whats going on? This fast heart rate is really becoming unbearable. Any advice?
Based on your symptoms of a fast heart rate at rest, palpitations, and chest pain, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation. The following tests may be recommended: 1. Electrocardiogram (ECG) to assess the electrical activity of the heart. 2. Holter monitor to continuously record your heart's activity for a period of time. 3. Echocardiogram to evaluate the structure and function of the heart. 4. Blood tests to check for any underlying conditions such as thyroid disorders or electrolyte imbalances. In the meantime, to help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25mg once daily, as prescribed by a healthcare professional. Beta-blockers can help lower heart rate and reduce chest pain.

I'm dealing with high blood pressure and tachycardia, and my heart rate is pretty fast. I've been taking Hypen 121.5 mg daily for my BP and Indever 40 mg twice a day. Lately, I've started taking Indever regularly, and I've noticed that whenever I talk loudly or shout, I get chest pain. This has been happening for the last four months, even with the medication. Is this something I should be worried about?
no problem you continue your medicine
