I'm experiencing this weird vibration-like sensation in the upper left side of my chest that's been going on for a couple of days. Initially, I thought it was just acidity, but its been almost 45 days now. Any idea whats causing this and how I can fix it quickly?

View allWhat could it mean if Sorbitrate 5 tastes really bitter when you keep it under your tongue? My relative is dealing with hypertension and I'm a bit worried.
When sorbitrate 5 feels really bitter when you keep it under your tongue, it could be due to the medication coming into contact with taste buds. This is a common side effect of sublingual medications. To reduce the bitter taste, you can try drinking a small amount of water before taking the medication. Additionally, ensure that the medication is placed directly under the tongue and allowed to dissolve completely. If the bitterness persists or if there are any other concerning symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

My mom, who's 75, has been having this center chest pain for 25 days now. Last week the doctor gave her met xl 12.5 and veloz d to take every morning after looking at her ECG report, but it hasn't helped with the pain. Today, after checking her 2D echo, they suggested she take Mucaine syrup and Sucrafil three times a day for a month. She's also on telmikind am 80 (half a tablet) and rosuless c 10 every night. I'm really worried since it's been more than a week without improvement. Do you have any idea what might be causing this pain?
Based on the medications your mother is currently taking and the symptoms described, the chest pain could be due to acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The medications prescribed such as Veloz D, Mucaine, and Sucrafil are commonly used to treat symptoms of acid reflux. It is possible that the pain is related to acid irritation in the esophagus. To further alleviate the symptoms, you can consider adding a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) such as Esomeprazole (brand name: Nexium) or Pantoprazole (brand name: Protonix) to reduce stomach acid production. The usual dosage for Esomeprazole is 20-40mg once daily before a meal, and for Pantoprazole, it is 40mg once daily in the morning. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as avoiding trigger foods, eating smaller meals, avoiding lying down after eating, and maintaining a healthy weight can also help in managing acid reflux symptoms. It is important to continue the current medications as prescribed and follow up with your doctor for further evaluation if the chest pain persists.

I'm really worried because I'm having trouble breathing and there's a tightness in my chest, plus my left hand is hurting. I did an HRCT Thorax and it came back normal, but my ECG shows a poor R wave. I'm attaching the report if you could take a look. My doctor prescribed Defza 24, Moxif 400, and Doxt SL 100, but I'm not feeling any better. I also notice this weird sound in my chest whenever I try to cough, even though no cough is actually coming up. Can you help me understand what's going on?
The HRCT thorax showing normal results is a good sign, indicating that there are no major abnormalities in your chest area. However, the ECG showing a poor R wave may indicate some issues with your heart's electrical activity. The symptoms of breathing difficulty, chest tightness, and left hand pain could be related to cardiac issues. The medications prescribed to you are as follows: 1. Defza 24 (Deflazacort) - This is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation in the body. The usual dosage is 24 mg per day. 2. Moxif 400 (Moxifloxacin) - This is an antibiotic that is used to treat bacterial infections. The usual dosage is 400 mg once daily. 3. Doxt SL 100 (Doxycycline) - This is also an antibiotic that is commonly used to treat various bacterial infections. The usual dosage is 100 mg once daily. It is important to continue taking these medications as prescribed by your doctor. However, if you are not feeling better and experiencing chest sounds when trying to cough, it is advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. It is possible that additional tests or medications may be needed to address your symptoms effectively.
