I've been having some pain for the last couple of days, and since I have high blood pressure and I'm on amlopres, I'm a bit worried. Could this pain be related to my medication or my blood pressure? What should I do?

View allI've been experiencing some weird symptoms lately that have me feeling pretty uneasy. I'm 23 and for a few months now, I've noticed some strong palpitations in my chest. It's especially strange because they often happen around noon, and I've even felt my whole body shake with my heartbeat when I'm trying to sleep. I've already had an ECG and ECHO done, and everything seemed normal. My mobile app is showing a fast heart rate around noon, too. On top of all this, I've been dealing with gas problems and quite a bit of anxiety. What do you think could be going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations and tremors due to anxiety and gas problems. To help with your symptoms, I recommend the following: - For palpitations and fast heart rate, you can take Propranolol 20mg twice daily to help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. - For anxiety, you can try taking Alprazolam 0.25mg as needed to help manage your anxiety symptoms. - For gas problems, you can take Simethicone 125mg after meals to help relieve gas and bloating. Make sure to follow the recommended dosages and consult with your doctor before starting any new medication. It's also important to practice stress-reducing techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness, to help manage your anxiety symptoms.

I've been really worried about some medication I took a while back. In 2015, I was prescribed dexa 0.5 mg for about two months to help with weight gain. At the time, I didn't really think about the side effects, but now I'm concerned about how it might be affecting my heart. I've had tests like TMT, echo, and ECG, and they're all normal, but I'm still dealing with dyspnea and fatigue quite a bit. Could these issues be lingering side effects from the dexamethasone I took, even if my heart tests are coming out fine?
"Based on your history of taking dexamethasone 0.5 mg regularly for 2 months in 2015 and your current symptoms of dyspnea and fatigue, it is important to consider the potential long-term effects of dexamethasone on your heart. While your TMT, echo, and ECG are normal, prolonged use of dexamethasone can still have implications on cardiovascular health. To address your symptoms and concerns about potential heart side effects, I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and monitoring. In the meantime, you can consider medications like ACE inhibitors or beta-blockers to help manage any potential cardiac issues associated with dexamethasone use. It is important to prioritize your heart health and seek appropriate medical guidance to ensure comprehensive care tailored to your individual needs."

I'm a bit puzzled because my ECG and chest X-ray both came out normal, but I still occasionally get this mild chest pain that feels like it's moving around. It's not severe, but it's enough to concern me. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it?
"Since your ECG report and CHEST PA view report are normal, the moving chest pain you are experiencing may be due to musculoskeletal issues or anxiety. You can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for the chest pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may help alleviate any anxiety-related chest discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation."
