I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest for the past 8 months, since September. I've already done ECG, Echo, TMT, and various blood tests but everything came back normal. The pain comes and goes, but in the last few days, it's been bothering me again. On top of that, I'm experiencing body pain too. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

It sounds like you have been experiencing left side chest pain for quite some time, despite normal results from various tests. Since the pain has started again recently and you are also experiencing body pain, it may be helpful to try a medication like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg for pain relief. You can take 1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours as needed for chest and body pain. However, if the pain persists or worsens, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm really worried about my blood pressure because even though I'm taking telma 40, austin cv, and dilgem 90 at night, my bp still isn't under controlit's currently 13797 with a pulse rate of 108. I also discovered I have a 2-80 block in my angiography, though my ECG seems normal. What should I do, and should I be concerned about anything else?

Your current blood pressure reading of 13797 is still elevated, especially with a pulse rate of 108. Since you have significant blockage in one of your coronary arteries, it is important to manage your blood pressure effectively. I recommend adding a calcium channel blocker to your current medication regimen. You can ask your doctor about adding a medication like Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, regular exercise, and stress management can also help in controlling your blood pressure.

I'm a bit concerned about my blood pressure. It's usually around 13584 or sometimes 14084, but it never goes beyond 140. My doctor prescribed me torsemide for a short periodonly 20 tabletsand said it's mainly because of anxiety. Is this normal? Should I be worried about taking the torsemide, or is it safe to just stop after finishing the tablets like my doctor suggested?

A blood pressure reading of 13584 or 14084 is slightly elevated but not alarming. Your doctor prescribed torsemide for a short period to manage fluid retention, likely linked to anxiety. It's normal in such cases, but it's important to follow up if you continue to feel concerned.

I'm really worried about someone who recovered from COVID three weeks ago but is still dealing with a persistent cough and some chest congestion. What concerns me more is that just yesterday, their heart rate shot up to 117, and even though it's come down to around 95 after taking one Evapump tab, I'm unsure if it's safe to use this medication whenever their pulse rate spikes. They tested negative for COVID twice with RT PCR recently. About two weeks ago, there was another incident where their pulse rate went all the way up to 157, with a blood pressure reading of 131 over 82. Can you let me know if these fluctuations are something to be concerned about and if this medication is the right way to manage it?
