I've been taking Asomex 2.5mg for the past couple of days because my blood pressure's been high at 16090. Just recently, I've started sweating on my forehead, which is a bit unusual for me. Is this something I should be concerned about, or could it be a side effect of the meds?

Your blood pressure is 16090 and you are experiencing sweating on the forehead. You are currently taking Asomex 2.5mg. The sweating on the forehead could be a side effect of the medication. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly. In case the sweating continues or worsens, you should consult your doctor. As for your high blood pressure, you may need a higher dose of medication or an additional medication. I recommend discussing this with your doctor to adjust your treatment plan.

View allMy mom, who's 75, has been having this center chest pain for 25 days now. Last week the doctor gave her met xl 12.5 and veloz d to take every morning after looking at her ECG report, but it hasn't helped with the pain. Today, after checking her 2D echo, they suggested she take Mucaine syrup and Sucrafil three times a day for a month. She's also on telmikind am 80 (half a tablet) and rosuless c 10 every night. I'm really worried since it's been more than a week without improvement. Do you have any idea what might be causing this pain?
Based on the medications your mother is currently taking and the symptoms described, the chest pain could be due to acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The medications prescribed such as Veloz D, Mucaine, and Sucrafil are commonly used to treat symptoms of acid reflux. It is possible that the pain is related to acid irritation in the esophagus. To further alleviate the symptoms, you can consider adding a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) such as Esomeprazole (brand name: Nexium) or Pantoprazole (brand name: Protonix) to reduce stomach acid production. The usual dosage for Esomeprazole is 20-40mg once daily before a meal, and for Pantoprazole, it is 40mg once daily in the morning. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as avoiding trigger foods, eating smaller meals, avoiding lying down after eating, and maintaining a healthy weight can also help in managing acid reflux symptoms. It is important to continue the current medications as prescribed and follow up with your doctor for further evaluation if the chest pain persists.

I'm feeling a little disturbance on the left side of my chest, and it's making me really anxious. I'm only 28 years old, and this has gotten me worried. What could be causing this? Can you give me some advice?
could be due to various reasons, such as muscle strain, indigestion, anxiety, or even heart-related issues. Since you are only 28 years old, it is less likely to be related to heart problems, but it is still important to get it checked out to rule out any serious issues. You can take an over-the-counter antacid like Tums for indigestion or try to relax and practice deep breathing exercises for anxiety. However, if the discomfort persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

I'm feeling really worried because my heart pumping seems weak, yet my heart rate is 72 bpm. I also have this severe mitral valve regurgitation. Is something like this normal, or should I be concerned?
A heart rate of 72bpm is within the normal range. However, with severe mitral valve regurgitation and weak heart pumping, it is important to manage your condition. You can take medications like Carvedilol 6.25mg twice daily to help improve heart function and Metoprolol 25mg twice daily to control heart rate. Additionally, you may benefit from medications like Furosemide 40mg once daily to reduce fluid buildup. Regular follow-up with your cardiologist is essential for monitoring and adjusting your treatment plan.
