I've been on Telvas 20 mg for my blood pressure for the past four days. I'm thinking about stopping it now. Is it okay to just discontinue it, or should I be careful about how I go about this?

View allI've been noticing that whenever I exercise for a while, my left carotid artery starts pulsating really strongly and it actually hurts a bit. I'm a 16-year-old female, and I recently got my bloodwork done and saw both a cardiologist and a lung specialist. They said everything's fine, except I've got costochondritis. I also tend to feel a little lightheaded, and I get a few headaches each week. Could this be genetic or related to something else? I'm just a bit worried and looking for some advice on what might be going on.
Maintain a healthy weight as per your BMI - Keep yourself well hydrated (Aim to drink 3-4 litersday) - Have a healthy and well balanced diet - Monitor your BP when you get lightheaded If the condition persists or worsens visit the cardiologist so that you can be examined and undergo investigations such as ECHO, thyroid profile, etc to find the underlying cause and have it treated accordingly.

I'm really confused about what's going on with my health. My ECG came out normal, but I've been wondering if I should get a Stress ECG or maybe a Stress ECHO done instead. I've been on Petril Beta 10 twice a day for anxiety for about four months now, but for the past month, I've been getting dizzy, and it's worse when I'm around loud noises or music. My parents think its just anxiety because that's what the local doctor said, but there are times when I feel breathless, like I'm not getting enough air. I had an ECG, ECHO, and Stress ECG along with some blood tests done back on June 30, and the doctors said everything is fine. Its been around 6.5 months of treatment and I'm still not feeling as healthy as before, which is worrying me a lot. Plus, for the past couple of months, I've had this dry cough that just comes and goes. I really need some advice on how to figure out what's going on.
It's good that your ECG, ECHO, and Stress ECG results came back normal. Since you are still experiencing symptoms such as dizziness, breathlessness, and dry cough, it may be beneficial to undergo a Stress ECHO to further evaluate your heart function under stress conditions. In the meantime, for your anxiety, continue taking Petril Beta 10 twice daily. To address your dizziness, your doctor may consider adjusting your medication dosage or prescribing medications like Betahistine. For your dry cough, you can try over-the-counter cough suppressants like Benadryl Cough Formula. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid irritants that may trigger your cough. Follow up with your doctor for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan.
