I'm a bit worried about my wife. She's been having these severe chest pains on her left side early in the morning. It happened around 5 am today and before that, at 2 am. There's nothing else with it like radiating pain, jaw pain, trouble breathing, or sweating, but the pain is pretty intense. It usually happens once and then subsides. This has been going on for about 78 days now. Do you think it could be something serious or is it just a muscular thing?

View allI've been dealing with anxiety-induced tachycardia and my resting heart rate used to be around 100-130 with a blood pressure of 130-14070-80 for the past year. My doctor prescribed Ciplar LA 40 mg and Amitone 10 mg, which I've been taking for the past four days. I've noticed my resting heart rate has dropped to between 70-85 and my blood pressure is now around 11080. There's another option, Metoprolol 25 mg, and I'm curious if it's a better choice for me to use just for a month. What would you suggest?
For anxiety-induced tachycardia, both Ciplar LA (propranolol) 40 mg and Metoprolol 25 mg are commonly used beta-blockers to help control heart rate and blood pressure. In your case, since you have already started taking Ciplar LA 40 mg and have noticed an improvement in your resting heart rate and blood pressure within 4 days, it seems to be working well for you. Therefore, I would recommend continuing with Ciplar LA 40 mg for the next month as prescribed by your doctor. It has shown effectiveness in reducing your heart rate and maintaining a normal blood pressure range. Make sure to follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage and duration of treatment.

I'm a 57-year-old man and I've just been diagnosed with high blood pressure. My doctor has prescribed telmisartan 40mg once daily. I'm wondering how long it might take for my blood pressure to get back to normal levels. Should I be concerned if there aren't any immediate changes?
It will take atleast 3-6 weeks .

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 55 and during her recent health check-up, the TMT showed she's mildly positive for inducible ischemia. Her report mentioned that she exercised for 8 minutes, reaching a maximum METS of 10, and her heart rate went from a resting 70 bpm to a max of 164 bpm, which is 99% of her predicted maximum for her age. Plus, her resting BP was 12078 mmHg and it went up to 15090 mmHg. Can you help me understand what all this means and how serious it might be?
tmt report is normal.
