I'm a bit confused and worried because even though my TMT and ECG tests from 4 months ago were normal, I still feel a slight pain in my left arm and chest. I rarely drink, maybe just some wine occasionally, and I don't smoke. My blood test and chest X-ray came back normal, and I don't have any blood pressure or other health issues. What could be going on?
Considering your symptoms and ineffective response to Novamox 500, you may want to consider alternative antibiotics. However, *always consult your doctor before switching medications*. _Augmentin 625 Duo vs. Azithral 500_ Both are effective antibiotics, but: 1. *Augmentin 625 Duo*: A broad-spectrum antibiotic, often prescribed for tonsillitis. It's a combination of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid. 2. *Azithral 500*: A macrolide antibiotic, also effective against tonsillitis. Azithromycin is often prescribed for 3-5 days. Azithral 500 might be a better option if: - You're allergic to penicillin (Augmentin contains amoxicillin, a penicillin-type antibiotic) - Your tonsillitis is caused by a macrolide-sensitive bacterium However, *your doctor should determine the best course of treatment* based on your medical history, allergy status, and the severity of your symptoms.

I'm wondering if a blood pressure reading of 78 over 140 is normal or if its on the high side. Should my dad see a doctor or maybe start some medication? Just to mention, he was feeling a bit under the weather with a common cold when the doctor measured this.
A blood pressure reading of 14078 is considered elevated and may indicate hypertension. It is advisable for your father to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management. Depending on the assessment, the doctor may prescribe medications such as Losartan 50mg once daily to help lower the blood pressure. It is important to follow up with the doctor for monitoring and adjustment of the treatment plan as needed.
