What is the main cause of high blood pressure?

View allI'm experiencing some heart palpitations and my pulse rate is around 90. I recently did an ECG, 2D ECO, and blood tests including the complete blood count, but everything came back normal. I'm just trying to figure out what could be causing these palpitations. Any thoughts on what might be going on?
The normal test results indicate that there may not be a serious underlying issue causing your heart palpitations. However, there are several potential reasons for experiencing heart palpitations despite normal test results. Some common causes include anxiety, stress, caffeine intake, dehydration, anemia, thyroid disorders, or certain medications. In your case, since the tests have already been done and are normal, I would recommend trying to manage stress levels, reducing caffeine intake, staying hydrated, and ensuring a balanced diet. If palpitations persist or worsen, a medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) can be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate.

I'm feeling a bit worried about my chest. I had covid a couple of months back and recovered, but this past week, I've been experiencing some tightness there. I had an ECG done and it came out normal, but I'm still concerned. Could you please take a look at my X-ray and let me know if everything seems okay?
Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.

I'm a bit confused and worried because even though my TMT and ECG tests from 4 months ago were normal, I still feel a slight pain in my left arm and chest. I rarely drink, maybe just some wine occasionally, and I don't smoke. My blood test and chest X-ray came back normal, and I don't have any blood pressure or other health issues. What could be going on?
Considering your symptoms and ineffective response to Novamox 500, you may want to consider alternative antibiotics. However, *always consult your doctor before switching medications*. _Augmentin 625 Duo vs. Azithral 500_ Both are effective antibiotics, but: 1. *Augmentin 625 Duo*: A broad-spectrum antibiotic, often prescribed for tonsillitis. It's a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. 2. *Azithral 500*: A macrolide antibiotic, also effective against tonsillitis. Azithromycin is often prescribed for 3-5 days. Azithral 500 might be a better option if: - You're allergic to penicillin (Augmentin contains amoxicillin, a penicillin-type antibiotic) - Your tonsillitis is caused by a macrolide-sensitive bacterium However, *your doctor should determine the best course of treatment* based on your medical history, allergy status, and the severity of your symptoms.
