My mom's blood pressure is at 19590 and I gave her Stamlo 5. It has lowered to 17588, but won't seem to go down any more. Should I give her another dose of Stamlo 5? I'm really worried about her.

I'm 26 and have been experiencing chest pain for about a month and a half now. I checked my ECG, and it came back normal, but I'm still worried. Sometimes it feels like a pressing sensation, and other times it feels like something's moving inside my chest, shifting from the middle to the top, or from the left side to the middle. What could this be?

My mom had an angioplasty a couple of weeks ago, and she's also got type 2 diabetes. I'm really concerned because her ESR level is at 78. Should I be worried about this? Does it mean something serious?

An elevated ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) of 78 mmhr indicates inflammation or infection in the body, which can be concerning, especially in a patient who has recently undergone angioplasty and has type 2 diabetes. While a high ESR is not specific to one condition, it warrants further investigation to identify the underlying cause. It's important to consult with your mother's healthcare provider to determine the source of the elevated ESR and address it appropriately. They may recommend additional tests or treatments based on their findings. Close monitoring and managing her diabetes effectively are also crucial to avoid complications.

I've been experiencing some concerning health issues lately and could really use some guidance. I'm 32, from Hyderabad, and generally healthyI don't smoke and only drink beer like once in every three or four months. I used to be really active with running, climbing, and cycling, even training for triathlons. But around five months ago, I started having chest pain that spreads to my back and left arm, especially when I'm lying down. Despite having had an ECG, echo, TMT, troponin, and a CT angiography, all these tests came back negative. The only thing I've been diagnosed with is high heart rate, for which I'm on medication. This has helped bring down the chest pain but not completely. Now, for the past month, I've had intense headaches and dizziness that make me feel like I might just collapse. Last night was particularly bad with the headache and chest pain. I'm really worried and not sure how to proceed. Could you advise on what might be causing this and what I should do next?

It sounds like you are experiencing a combination of chest pain, back pain, left arm pain, headaches, and dizziness. Since your cardiac tests have come back negative and you are already being treated for high heart beats, it is important to consider other possible causes for your symptoms. The chest pain, back pain, and left arm pain could be related to musculoskeletal issues or nerve impingement. For your headache and dizziness, it may be helpful to explore the possibility of migraines or other neurological conditions. I recommend trying a medication like Acetaminophen for your headache and pain relief. For your ongoing chest pain, back pain, and left arm pain, you can try a muscle relaxant like Cyclobenzaprine. Additionally, for your high heart beats, you can continue with the medication prescribed by your doctor. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider to discuss these new symptoms and explore further evaluation or treatment options.
