I'm a bit puzzled because my ECG is coming back normal, but I'm still feeling pain in my left arm and shoulder. Last Tuesday, my blood pressure was at 160, and now it's around 11064. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I've been prescribed Telma 20 for my blood pressure, and I'm wondering if that's the lowest dose available? Are there any other medications with a lower dosage than Telma 20? I'm also curious about how effective it is and if there are any side effects I should be aware of. Could you help me understand this better?

Telma 20 (Telmisartan) is a common blood pressure medication, and while there are lower doses available, Telma 20 is generally considered effective for managing high blood pressure. It works by relaxing blood vessels. Side effects may include dizziness, headaches, or gastrointestinal issues, though many people tolerate it well. Always consult your doctor for personalized advice.

I'm noticing that my blood pressure readings are different in each arm. The left side shows 90160, while the right is 80125. Could you tell me which one is correct? Also, my lipid and sugar levels are normal, and I feel okay when I walk around, but I still feel anxious. What should I do?

It is recommended to consider the blood pressure reading from the right hand (80125) as it is lower and more accurate. To manage anxiety, you can take a medication such as lorazepam (Ativan) 0.5mg as needed. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
