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?

View allI'm really concerned because I recently did a 24-hour Holter monitor test, and I was told I have tachycardia. All my other tests like the ECG, echo, and X-ray came back normal, which is a bit confusing. The doctor mentioned that my tachycardia might be due to anxiety since sometimes I experience palpitations and have trouble breathing. I'm wondering if it's okay to take Zapiz 0.25mg for my anxiety every other day or if there might be any side effects I should worry about. Any advice would be appreciated.
Zapiz 0.25mg is a brand name for Clonazepam, which is commonly used to treat anxiety disorders. However, it is important to note that Clonazepam is typically not recommended for daily, long-term use due to the risk of tolerance, dependence, and withdrawal symptoms. It is best to use it on an "as-needed" basis for anxiety symptoms. For your palpitations and difficulty breathing related to anxiety, your doctor may consider prescribing a different type of medication such as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) or a serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) for long-term management of anxiety. These medications are less likely to cause dependence compared to Clonazepam. I recommend discussing with your doctor about alternative medications for managing your anxiety symptoms and to address any concerns about potential side effects of Zapiz 0.25mg.

I'm 36 years old and my cholesterol levels are quite high. I've got the details here: Total cholesterol is 212 mgdL, triglycerides are 333 mgdL, HDL is 33.60 mgdL, LDL is 143 mgdL, VLDL is 35.4 mgdL, and Non-HDL is 178 mgdL. My liver function tests show bilirubin total at 0.42 mgdL, bilirubin direct at 0.07 mgdL, and bilirubin indirect at 0.35 mgdL. My SGOT is 40 UL, SGPT is 34 UL, GGTP is 28 UL, ALP is 121 UL, total protein is 7.20 gdL, and albumin is 4.48 gdL with an AG ratio of 1.65. My fasting blood sugar is 102 mgdL. The doctor recommended taking Rozavel F 10 mg twice a day, but I'm really concerned and wondering if there's anything else I can do to lower my cholesterol quickly. Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.
"Based on your cholesterol levels and liver function test results, I recommend adding Ezetimibe 10 mg once daily to your current treatment with Rozavel F 10 mg twice a day. This combination can help in faster reduction of cholesterol levels. Additionally, you can consider adding Omega-3 fatty acids supplement to further improve your lipid profile. Make sure to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and engage in regular physical activity to complement the medication therapy."

I take concor 5mg for my hypertension and high heart rate. I vomited about an hour after taking my dose today. Should I be worried that the tablet might have come out, or is it fine to just continue with my next dose tomorrow?
In this case, it would be best to not take another dose today. Wait until your next scheduled dose tomorrow. If you continue to experience vomiting or any other concerning symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider for further guidance.
