I'm 21 and I've noticed my blood pressure readings are a bit all over the place. It was 149 over 78 at one point, and then it changed to 109 over 70. My pulse rate also jumps around from 110 to 72. I'm a bit worried and wondering if there's an issue or if this is normal for my age. Can you help me understand what's going on?

View allI've been noticing that when I'm lying down, I can hear my heartbeat clearly, and it's even visible through my shirt and in my stomach area. At night, while trying to fall asleep, I sometimes feel a sense of fear in my chest and stomach. What could be causing this?
These symptoms could be due to anxiety or stress, which can cause palpitations (feeling of heart beating fast or irregularly), visible pulsations in the abdomen, and a sensation of fear or unease in the chest and stomach. It is important to manage stress and anxiety through relaxation techniques, exercise, and possibly counseling. Additionally, you can take a beta-blocker like Propranolol 20mg to help reduce palpitations and visible pulsations. Make sure to consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.

I'm experiencing chest pain in the middle, and sometimes it feels like a pulsing sensation. It just started yesterday. Should I be worried about this? What could it mean?
Chest pain can have various causes, including heart problems, muscle strain, or digestive issues. Since chest pain can be a symptom of a serious condition, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) at a dose of 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. However, if the chest pain is severe or persistent, it is crucial to seek immediate medical help.

I'm wondering if Preva and Ecosprin AV are actually the same thing or if they're different medications. I'm also a bit concerned about the side effects. Does one have more side effects than the other? Could you help me understand this better?
Both Preva and Ecosprin AV are different medications with different active ingredients and mechanisms of action. Preva contains the active ingredient Clopidogrel, while Ecosprin AV contains a combination of Aspirin and Atorvastatin. In terms of side effects, both medications can cause side effects, but the specific side effects and their likelihood can vary from person to person. Common side effects of Clopidogrel (Preva) include bleeding, bruising, and stomach upset. On the other hand, common side effects of Aspirin and Atorvastatin (Ecosprin AV) include stomach upset, muscle pain, and liver enzyme abnormalities. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to determine which medication is more suitable for you based on your individual medical history and risk factors.
