I've been having this weird chest pain around my sternum and in the center of my back. It's been going on for a few days now and usually hits me with cold sweats and heat waves. I also get this sharp pain on the left side of my breast whenever I walk. I thought it might just be a hangover, but its been three days and it just seems... off. Should I be worried about this?

I'm 58 and was diagnosed with high cholesterol and high blood pressure a few years back. I've been on lipisafe Nebilong 5mg and telcad 40 since then. It's been working because my levels are under control now, but for a while, I've been having this annoying chest pain and some joint and muscle aches. I don't know if it's the meds or something else. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm experiencing this kind of strong pounding pulse throughout my body. It's not really fast, just really strong. I can even see it in my neck when I look in the mirror and I feel it in my fingers and hands when I touch something. I also notice a visible pulse in my stomach and when I'm lying down, my head kind of bobs up and down with my pulse. Right now, even as I'm sitting in bed with my laptop, the pulse is shaking my laptop. This began shortly after I had some issues with anxiety and possible heart problems, but I've been to the hospital multiple times and they've ruled out any heart issues. It often gets triggered after heavy meals and this has been happening for about a year now. What could be causing this?

A really strong, pounding pulse all over your body, even visible in the neck and stomach, can be a concerning symptom. Since heart issues have been ruled out, this may be related to anxiety. To help manage this symptom, you can try taking Propranolol (Inderal) 10-20mg as needed to help reduce the pounding pulse and physical symptoms of anxiety. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

Can a heart stent be taken out without needing bypass surgery I'm a bit worried about this and want to understand if it's possible or what the options are

Once a stent is placed, it isn’t usually removed; bypass is only considered if stent fails or blockage recurs.
