I'm 25, and I've been dealing with this on-and-off pain in my left arm for about 15-20 days now. It was sharp and shooting at first, so I thought it might be gastritis, but now the pain's more dull and constant. Lately, for about a week, I've been feeling breathless sometimes, and there's some nausea too. I get tired pretty quick and now there's this annoying discomfort in my upper back. Should I be looking into any specific tests or is there something else I should be considering?

View allI'm really worried about my dad. About a month ago, he had 2 stents put in, and since then, it's been tough for him. He can't eat much, has a dry cough, and feels weak all the time. Plus, whenever he takes pantoprazole before breakfast, he gets a headache. What could be going on? Is there anything we should be doing differently?
It sounds like your father may be experiencing side effects from the medication he is taking. The dry cough and weakness could be related to the stents or the medications he is on. The headache after taking pantoprazole could be a side effect of the medication. I would recommend discussing these symptoms with his doctor. In the meantime, he can try taking pantoprazole after breakfast to see if that helps with the headache. Additionally, he can try taking medications like Clopidogrel (Plavix) and Aspirin to prevent blood clots after stent placement.

I'm 30 and just started working out, but I've noticed during cardio my heart rate goes above 180. Is this normal?
During intense exercise, it is not uncommon for heart rates to exceed 180 beats per minute, especially in younger individuals. However, it is important to monitor your heart rate and listen to your body. If you experience dizziness, chest pain, or difficulty breathing, you should stop exercising and seek medical attention. To help regulate your heart rate during exercise, you can consider taking a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol at a dose of 25-50mg before exercising, after consulting with your doctor.
