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 and need to know how to use sorbitrate. Should I take it right when I start feeling heart pain, or is there some other way I should be taking it? Please help me understand the right way to use this medication.
Sorbitrate (Isosorbide Dinitrate) works quickly to relieve chest pain caused by angina. It is usually taken at the first sign of chest pain. The usual dosage is 2.5 to 5 mg sublingually (under the tongue) and may be repeated every 5 minutes for a maximum of 3 doses. It is important to follow the specific dosing instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Remember to seek emergency medical attention if your chest pain persists or worsens after taking Sorbitrate.

I'm really concerned because my heart rate is staying really high around 180 bpm. Even after taking medicine, it only went down to 160 bpm. Is this something I should be worried about? What can I do to help it get back to normal?
Heart rate of 180 bpm is considered very high and can be a sign of tachycardia. It's good that the medicine helped reduce it to 160 bpm, but it's still elevated. You should seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, you can take Metoprolol 25mg to help lower your heart rate. Make sure to rest, stay hydrated, and avoid any stimulants like caffeine.

I recently had a fever and decided to get an ECG done. The results showed sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia. I went back for another ECG the next day, and it came out normal. Should I be concerned about this fluctuation?
