I'm really worried about my high blood pressure since I'm only 27. I've been dealing with anxiety and PCOS, and I've been taking Diane 35 and Fincar for the past month. Lately, I find myself getting short of breath whenever I think about all of this. I don't want to die early and really want to improve my lifestyle. What should I do?

High blood pressure can be concerning, especially at a young age. It's important to manage your blood pressure to reduce the risk of complications. Since you are already taking Diane 35 and Fincar for PCOS, it's essential to monitor your blood pressure regularly. In addition to lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise, you may benefit from medication to help control your blood pressure. I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider to discuss the possibility of starting an antihypertensive medication such as Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure and reduce the risk of complications. Remember to continue monitoring your blood pressure and follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to adjust your treatment plan as needed."

I've been really worried about having a heart attack. I keep feeling symptoms like pain in my left hand, chest pain, dizziness, fatigue, shaking, fever, and even a cough. It's getting hard to focus on my daily activities because I'm always noticing these symptoms. I've done multiple testslike ECGs, an echo, a stress ECG test, a troponin test, and also an X-ray. My cholesterol has been checked twice too. All the results came back normal, but I still can't shake off the fear of having a heart attack. Why do I still feel this way despite all the normal test results?

It sounds like you are experiencing a lot of anxiety and fear related to the possibility of having a heart attack, despite multiple tests showing normal results. It's important to address your anxiety and stress levels in addition to your physical health. In your case, I would recommend a low dose of an anti-anxiety medication such as lorazepam (Ativan) 0.5mg to be taken as needed when you feel overwhelmed by these symptoms. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, and regular physical activity can also help manage your anxiety. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.
