I'm dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder and anxiety, and my pulse rate is pretty much always over 90. My doctor has me on Ciplar LA 40 once a day for a few months. I've read that stopping this medication can cause heart attacks and other scary stuff. Is it really safe for me to be on this? I'm also taking Ecospirin 75 at night to help with blood flow. What should I do?

While Propranolol (Ciplar LA) and Aspirin are generally safe when prescribed together, it's crucial to follow your doctors recommendations for proper management. If you're ever in doubt or feel uncomfortable about the medication, dont hesitate to have a thorough discussion with your healthcare provider to address your concerns and explore options.

I've been trying to lose weight but whenever I exercise, I feel this tightness in my chest and get out of breath super quickly, like even just climbing stairs or walking. It's hard to breathe and my heart starts beating really fast. My blood pressure is on the high side too, usually around 135100, and I have a fatty liver. What should I do about all this?
