I'm experiencing this left hand cramp and chest pain that comes and goes, and it's been joined by this left arm pain for about eight days now. I went for an ECG yesterday, and they said everything looked normal, though my heart rate was up a bitapparently due to stress. I actually had a similar hand cramp about a month ago. Should I be concerned or look into other causes for these symptoms?

Based on your symptoms of left hand cramp, chest pain, and left arm pain, along with a normal ECG result and slightly elevated heart rate possibly due to stress, it is important to consider muscle relaxants and pain relievers. You can take acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief and muscle relaxation. Additionally, you can use a muscle relaxant like cyclobenzaprine 5mg to help with the hand cramp. It is important to take these medications as directed on the packaging or as advised by a healthcare professional

I'm feeling a strong pulse right below my ribcage. It lasts for a couple of seconds and then sometimes it comes back either 10 seconds or an hour later. Should I be worried about this, and what could it possibly be?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations. Palpitations are sensations of a rapid or irregular heartbeat. In this case, it is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. If necessary, your doctor may prescribe medications such as Metoprolol (25-100mg) to help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. Remember to follow your doctor's recommendations and keep track of any changes in your symptoms.

I'm feeling a bit worried about my blood pressure readings. I got a reading of 135110 at the hospital and 140102 with a digital machine at home. I'm already taking Eritel LN 40 and Concor 2.5, but my regular doctor isn't available right now. I went to a clinic nearby because I've had headaches and blurred vision, and they recommended I take Telma H 4012.5 in the morning and keep up the Concor 2.5 mg at night for the next week until I can see my usual doctor. Does this sound like the right approach, or is there anything else I should consider?
Your blood pressure readings are slightly elevated, and you are experiencing headaches and slight blurriness in vision. Based on the information provided, you are currently taking Eritel LN 40 and Concor 2.5 for your blood pressure. The clinic has advised you to take Telma H 4012.5 in the morning and continue with Concor 2.5 mg at night for 7 days. I recommend following the advice given by the clinic. Take Telma H 4012.5 in the morning and Concor 2.5 mg at night as prescribed. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult your regular physician as advised. If you experience any concerning symptoms or if your condition worsens, seek medical attention promptly.
