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.

View allI've had this stabbing pain right in the middle of my chest that I've been dealing with since I woke up one morning. It feels sharp, especially when I inhale deeply, sneeze, or put any pressure on my chest. I tried taking pain relievers and some NSAIDs, and after about a week, the pain mostly went away, but I still feel it when I move or squeeze my chest too much. It's been 3 months since then, and the day after this pain started, I caught influenza. I did visit a general doctor, but they said it might be from the flu or just because I slept wrong and put too much pressure on my chest. I'm really worried about what this could be. Could it actually be something more serious?

I read that if you often have a difference of 10 to 15 mm Hg in your systolic blood pressure between your arms, it might indicate issues like vascular disease or blocked arteries. Is this actually true? Should I be worried about peripheral artery disease if my readings are consistently different?
Yes, it is true that a large difference in blood pressure measurement between your arms may indicate a health problem such as blocked arteries in your arms (peripheral artery disease). It is important to monitor and address any significant differences in blood pressure readings between your arms to prevent potential vascular disease complications.
