I've been feeling some pain in the middle of my chest, right at the top, for the last couple of months, and it seems to be getting worse every day. I've also been dealing with catarrh for a few years now. Could these be related, and should I be worried about this chest pain getting worse?

I've been dealing with high blood pressure for the last six years, and I'm currently taking Olmesar 20 H. This past week, my blood pressure readings have been fluctuating between 13590 and 14595. What can I do to help lower my blood pressure? I'm a bit concerned about these numbers.

It seems like your blood pressure is slightly elevated despite taking Olmesar 20 H. To help lower your blood pressure, you can try increasing your physical activity, reducing your salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, and managing stress. In addition, you may need a change in medication dosage or a different medication. I recommend consulting your doctor to adjust your treatment plan.

I'm a bit worried about my current heart rate and blood pressure. Usually, my resting heart rate is between 70-80, and my BP is around 12585, but since this evening, my heart rate has jumped to 112-118, and my BP is at 14090. Up until a few days ago, everything was normal. I did smoke today after a long break and then checked my readings. Also, I've had a physiotherapy session with IFT for a cervical issue. Should I be concerned about these changes?

The increase in heart rate and blood pressure after smoking can be a concerning sign, especially if your readings were normal a few days back. It is important to monitor your blood pressure and heart rate closely. To help lower your blood pressure, you can consider taking medications such as Amlodipine 5mg once daily. Additionally, to help regulate your heart rate, you can take Metoprolol 25mg twice daily. However, it is important to quit smoking as it can have detrimental effects on your cardiovascular health.

Your 2D echo report shows Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) with trivial Mitral Regurgitation (MR) and normal Left Ventricular (LV) function.
