I've been feeling kind of uncomfortable in my chest, mostly at night, and sometimes the pain stretches out to my left arm. On top of that, I've been dealing with this left side neck pain and a bit of an ache in my upper back. Do you think I should be worried about this or is it something that might go away on its own? What could it be?

The symptoms you are describing could be indicative of a heart-related issue. It is important to seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg for potential heart-related chest pain. Please chew the tablet for faster absorption. Remember to call emergency services or go to the nearest emergency room for further evaluation and treatment.

View allI've been dealing with high blood pressure for the past two months and have been taking metoprolol 50 mg since the first month. Initially, everything was going well, and my blood pressure was 11070, but lately, over the past week, my diastolic pressure is sticking around 85 to 90. It seems like the meds aren't working as well now. I've increased to 50 mg twice a day. What should I do?
Its important to effectively manage your blood pressure, especially if it has started to rise again despite medication. It might be necessary to adjust your treatment plan. Continue monitoring your blood pressure regularly, and consider keeping a log of your readings to discuss with your doctor. In addition to adjusting your dose of Metoprolol, your healthcare provider might consider adding another antihypertensive medication to your regimen. There are several classes of medications that can be used in combination with beta-blockers, such as ACE inhibitors, calcium channel blockers, or diuretics. I recommend scheduling an appointment with your healthcare provider to review your current treatment plan and discuss potential adjustments. They can also evaluate for any underlying factors that might be contributing to the increased blood pressure.

I'm 28 and recently got a job at a refinery. During my medical checkup, they found something called Left Anterior Hemi Block in my ECG. I'm a bit concerned since my health history has always been good. Everything else like my BP, sugar levels, eyes, ears, and chest X-rays came out normal. Should I be worried about this, or is it not that serious?
Left Anterior Hemiblock (LAH) is a conductive abnormality in the heart's electrical system, which often does not cause symptoms and is not necessarily dangerous. It can be more significant in the presence of other heart conditions, but in many cases, it's a mild and isolated finding. It's essential to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and to ensure that no underlying heart disease is contributing to the condition.
