I've been tracking my pulse rate and it usually falls between 44 to 60 beats per minute. Sometimes I experience a bit of chest pain but my doctor mentioned it's just gas. My blood pressure ranges between 120 to 140 over 80 to 90. Should I be worried about these pulse rates or the chest pain?

Your pulse rate of 44 to 60 beats per minute is considered bradycardia, which is a heart rate that is slower than normal. Since you are also experiencing chest pain, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend you to take Aspirin 81mg once a day to prevent any clot formation in the heart. Also, you can take Metoprolol 25mg once a day to help regulate your heart rate. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my mom. She was out walking when she suddenly started choking and then complained about pain in her left arm. Thankfully, it all cleared up after a few minutes, but I'm concerned. Should I be worried about this? Could this be something serious?
These symptoms could be indicative of a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or a mini-stroke. It is important to seek medical attention immediately to rule out any serious underlying conditions. Medications such as aspirin or clopidogrel may be prescribed to prevent further episodes. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is recommended to monitor and manage any risk factors for stroke.
