View allI'm kind of worried about my health. My pulse is usually around 90 to 115, and my blood pressure is about 80 over something like 90 to 125 over 40 most of the time. Sometimes I get chest pain, and when I exercise, I feel really breathless. It's strange because my reports have been normal for the past 6 or 7 months. I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism about 20 months ago, and I've gone from taking 222 carbimazol daily to just 1.
