I'm currently taking Nexito Plus and Propranolol. I'm wondering if these medications could be affecting my ECG results? Also, I'm dealing with gastritis right now. Could that be related to or affecting my heart health?

The combination of Nexito Plus (Escitalopram, Clonazepam, and Nortriptyline) and Propranolol can potentially have an effect on your ECG due to their cardiac side effects. Propranolol, in particular, can cause changes in heart rate and rhythm which may be reflected in an ECG. It is important to monitor your heart health regularly while taking these medications. Additionally, since you are experiencing gastritis problems, it's important to note that Propranolol can exacerbate gastrointestinal issues. It would be advisable to discuss these concerns with your healthcare provider to ensure the safety and effectiveness of your medication regimen.

Which arm to measure blood pressure right or left?

Both the arms can be used for BP measurement and sometimes, your doctor might take two readings from two arms to check for any variations too. Generally, it's best to take your blood pressure from your left arm if you are right-handed.

I've been dealing with chest pain for the past six months, and it's been really worrying me. I've already had ECGs done five times, an echocardiogram, blood tests, and even an endoscopy, but they all came back normal. My physical activity seems fine, but the pain is there all day. I'm just trying to figure out what might be going ondo you have any thoughts or advice on what I should do next?

It's good that you have already undergone several tests to investigate the cause of your chest pain. Since your ECG, echocardiogram, blood tests, and endoscopy all came back normal, it's less likely to be related to the heart or gastrointestinal issues. Considering your symptoms have persisted for 6 months, it's important to explore other possible causes such as musculoskeletal issues or anxiety-related chest pain. I recommend trying a medication like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques or deep breathing exercises may help if anxiety is a contributing factor to your chest pain. If the pain continues, further evaluation by a specialist may be needed.
