If your blood pressure has consistently been low for the past 15 days, especially after a recent wisdom tooth surgery, it's important to consult with your doctor or dentist. While a single instance of low blood pressure might be manageable with lifestyle adjustments, persistent low blood pressure could indicate an underlying issue.

I've been noticing something a bit unsettling recently, like my heart seems to be beating really hard, especially when I'm just lying down or relaxing. My resting heart rate is around 94bpm, which seems a bit high to me? Also, I can feel this strong pulse over my suprasternal notch and some weird tingling vibrations on the right side of my sternum near the carotid. Its almost like a sensation of anxiety, but I dont feel anxious at all. Could you give me some insight into what might be going on?

An ecg,cardiac markers and echo is advised to the patient, if reports are normal, advised a psychiatric opinion for anxiety..

I'm experiencing this weird chest and left arm discomfort whenever I hear music with strong vibrations. It's been happening a lot lately, and I'm also feeling short of breath with some chest pain. I've had tests on my heart and lungs, and everything came back normal. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. Since your heart and lung tests are normal, it's important to manage your symptoms. I recommend taking a low dose of aspirin (75-100mg) daily to help prevent blood clots and improve blood flow. Additionally, you can try using nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain relief. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
