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've been having this chest pain and heaviness, and sometimes it feels like I'm short of breath, especially when I'm walking. I got an ECG and a chest x-ray, and they came back normal. I went to a nearby clinic just a couple of days ago for the same issue. I can't help but think I might have angina, but no doctor has confirmed this. They usually just check my pulse rate and listen to my heartbeat with a stethoscope and tell me everything's fine. Should I be worried about this, or can I trust the tests and what the doctors have said so far? Would love some guidance!

Since your symptoms are persisting, it's important to consider other causes of chest pain apart from heart-related issues. One common condition that can cause similar symptoms is acid reflux or GERD. You can try taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast for 2 weeks to see if your symptoms improve. Additionally, you can also take Ranitidine (brand name Zantac) 150mg twice daily for immediate relief of chest pain. However, if your symptoms persist or worsen, it's advisable to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been feeling really breathless for a week now, and it got noticeably worse this morning. Plus, there's this chest pain that came along with it. I haven't noticed any other symptoms, but it's starting to worry me. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm sorry to hear you're feeling this way. Breathlessness and chest pain can be concerning symptoms, and its important to rule out any serious issues like a heart or lung condition. I recommend seeing a doctor as soon as possible for a thorough evaluation, including tests like an ECG or chest X-ray, to determine the cause.
