Lately, I've been experiencing chest pain, and it's been a bit worrying. It started about two months ago, with the first incident lasting around 23 days and then happened again about a month later. Now it's back, and along with the chest pain, I'm having trouble breathing. Today I've also noticed some pain in my left limb near the stomach. Should I be concerned about this, or is there something specific I should be doing?

I'm really worried about my blood pressure lately. My 2D echo showed concentric LVH with an EF of 60 and grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I've been on medication since September, taking one tablet in the morning and two at night. Initially, my BP seemed stable, but now in December, it's been fluctuating a lot. Previously, it was around 12082 to 12585 in the morning and 13585 to 13882 in the afternoon. But now, I'm seeing readings like 14090 in the morning and 14894 in the afternoon. I'm active, so what's causing these changes in winter? How should I take care of my BP during this season?
It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly, especially with your medical history of Concentric LVH and diastolic dysfunction. Considering your situation, I would recommend adding or adjusting your current medication regimen to better control your blood pressure during the winter season. You can discuss with your doctor about adding a calcium channel blocker like Amlodipine 5mg in the morning and a combination of Valsartan 80mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg in the evening. This can help in better blood pressure control throughout the day. In addition to medication, it is also important to make lifestyle modifications to help manage your blood pressure. This includes reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, managing stress, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. It is not uncommon for blood pressure to fluctuate with the change in seasons, but with the right medication and lifestyle adjustments, you can better manage your blood pressure even during the winter months. Make sure to continue monitoring your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your doctor for any further adjustments needed."
