I'm a bit confused about the difference between Prolomet XL 50mg and Prolomet XL R 50mg5mg. I don't have high blood pressure, so which one should I be considering, if at all?

I'm feeling a heaviness in my chest that seems to come from where the heart is, but it's only happening in the winter. During the summer, I don't experience this at all. Is it something normal or could it be a heart-related issue?

This could be due to a condition known as stable angina, where chest discomfort or pain occurs when the heart muscle doesn't get enough oxygen-rich blood flow, often triggered by cold weather. To alleviate symptoms, you can take a medication like Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain relief. The usual dosage is 0.3 to 0.6 mg sublingually every 5 minutes as necessary, up to 3 doses. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.

I've recently had this weird thing happen three times in the last couple of weeks where I suddenly started sweating and felt really dizzy. Two of those times, I was driving, which was pretty scary, and another time it happened while I was just watching TV. I'm kind of worried these could be signs of heart attacks or something else serious. Could you tell me what might be going on, and what kind of doctor I should talk to about this?

Episodes of sudden sweating and dizziness can be concerning symptoms. It is important to rule out any serious issues, including heart problems. However, these symptoms can also be caused by other conditions such as low blood sugar, dehydration, or anxiety. I recommend you to consult a Cardiologist for a thorough evaluation. They may suggest tests like an ECG, echocardiogram, or stress test to assess your heart health. In the meantime, make sure to stay hydrated, eat regular meals, and avoid driving if you feel dizzy to ensure your safety.
