I'm feeling some discomfort in a few spots on both sides of my chest. My HDL cholesterol is low, and I recently had a mildly positive TMT test. What do you think could be going on, and is there anything I should do?

I'm a bit concerned because I just started taking Telma 20mg and today I've been feeling dizzy and really tired. Is that a normal reaction? I checked my blood pressure and it's 14092. What should I do about this?

Starting on Telma (telmisartan) 20mg can sometimes cause side effects like dizziness and fatigue, especially when your body is adjusting to the medication. These symptoms can be more noticeable when standing up quickly or during the initial days of treatment. Your current blood pressure reading of 14092 mmHg indicates that it is still elevated. Its important to monitor your symptoms and blood pressure closely. If the dizziness and fatigue persist or worsen, please contact your healthcare provider to discuss your symptoms and possibly adjust your treatment plan.

My normal heart rate, as shown on my oximeter, is always over 100, usually around 102 or 104 beats per minute. Is this something I should be concerned about, or is it considered normal?

Ecg is advised to the patient for any arrythmias.
