I'm a bit worried because my blood pressure has been high for a few days now. Even after taking two BP tablets, it hasn't returned to normal. Plus, I also have thyroid issues. What could be happening, and should I be doing something else?

I've been having this pain in my left chest right next to my nipple, and at night, my heart feels like it's racing even if something small wakes me up. It's been happening all day, and I'm constantly aware of my heartbeat. Plus, there's this twisting kind of pain in a specific spot on my left arm. Could this be something serious with my heart, or is it possibly something else?

a echo may be needed, cardiologist opinion ..

I'm a bit worried about my health and would appreciate some advice. Recently, I've managed to reduce my high blood pressure in just 12 days, which is great, but now I'm experiencing some weird symptoms. Occasionally, I have this sharp chest pain on the left side that feels like I'm being poked with a needle. Sometimes it switches to the right side, and drinking water seems to trigger a bit of pain too. It feels like something's touching my chest inside. My shoulder also feels uncomfortable at times. I've also been passing a lot of gas and sometimes my throat feels really full. These symptoms are similar to what I experienced about two months ago. Does this sound like something serious?

The symptoms you describe, including high blood pressure, chest pain, shoulder discomfort, excessive gas, and a sensation of fullness in the throat, could be due to a combination of gastrointestinal and musculoskeletal factors, possibly exacerbated by anxiety. Conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) can cause chest pain and discomfort, while musculoskeletal issues could explain the needle-like pain and shoulder discomfort. To manage these symptoms, consult a healthcare provider to rule out serious conditions and confirm a diagnosis. They may recommend lifestyle changes such as a heart-healthy diet, stress reduction, and avoiding large or spicy meals, as well as medication like antacids for GERD and pain relievers for musculoskeletal pain. Monitoring your blood pressure regularly and following your doctor's advice on managing it is also important.
