I've been having a hard time breathing when I'm lying down on either side. Could this be related to my lungs or heart? I'm feeling a bit worried. Can you give me some insight into what might be going on?

I'm a 28-year-old guy and I've been on high BP medicine, Telma 40, for about 2 years. Whenever I lie down, especially on my left side, I can really feel my heartbeat. It's like it's beating outside my chest, and it's making it hard for me to sleep. I've had an ECG and a 24-hour Holter monitor test, and both came back normal.

I've been tracking my blood pressure for the past six months, and I've noticed my diastolic pressure is consistently between 95 to 106 and my systolic pressure is from 118 to 135. My pulse rate stays between 95 to 113. Occasionally, I feel this heaviness in my chest and get a bit short of breath. When my readings are high, I usually take half a tablet of nebistar h, and sometimes an anxit, but never at the same time. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do?

Your symptoms suggest that you may be experiencing hypertension and anxiety. Nebistar H is a combination medication containing Nebivolol and Hydrochlorothiazide, which helps in lowering blood pressure. I recommend taking one tablet of Nebistar H (Nebivolol 5mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg) once daily in the morning. For anxiety, Anxit tablet can be helpful. Anxit contains Alprazolam, which is used to manage anxiety disorders. You can take one tablet of Anxit (Alprazolam 0.25mg) as needed when you feel anxious. However, it is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
