I've been told to take either Telma 40 or Tazloc 40 for my blood pressure. Are they actually the same, or do the two medications have different compositions?

I've been having this chest pain on the right side near my shoulder for a couple of months now. I saw a doctor near my place, and he checked me out, saying there's nothing to worry about, but the pain is still bothering me. He gave me some medicine called UGESIC 20mg and suggested I get an HB test. What could this pain mean, and should I be doing something more or different?

yes

My wife's TMT came back positive, but her echocardiogram and ECG results were normal. Her doctor suggested she get an angiogram. I'm trying to understand if this is the right step at her age, which is 46. Is it usual to go for an angiogram in such cases, or are there other things we should consider first?

The advice for angiogram given by the doctor seems appropriate considering your wife's TMT test being positive. An angiogram can provide detailed information about the blood flow to the heart and help in identifying any blockages in the arteries. Given her age of 46 years and the positive TMT result, it is important to further investigate to ensure proper diagnosis and treatment. I would recommend following the doctor's advice and proceeding with the angiogram to assess the heart's condition accurately.

I've been dealing with some symptoms for a few months now, and it's starting to worry me. My heart races sometimes, I find myself short of breath, and occasionally my vision gets a bit blurry. I've also noticed a slight lack of balance and more frequent loose stools. I'm a 36-year-old female, 5'7" and 120 lbs. I try to keep active by walking a lot and exercising regularly. I quit smoking a few years back, but I consume more caffeine and sugar than I probably should. Generally, I think I eat pretty well. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? What could be causing them?

Based on your symptoms and medical history, it is important to consider the possibility of an overactive thyroid gland, also known as hyperthyroidism. The symptoms of rapid heart beat, shortness of breath, occasional blurry vision, slight lack of balance, and loose stools can be associated with this condition. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
