I'm feeling like there's a weight on my chest, and every so often, it really hurts. I've had COVID twice but I'm on the mend now. I was thinking of getting a chest x-ray, but I noticed there are different kinds, like AP view and lateral view. I'm not sure which one I should go for. Can you help?

View allI've been feeling a bit under the weather with a cold recently, and I've been on antibiotics for it. When I checked my blood pressure, it was at 160100, which has me a bit worried. I did take a tablet called Stardol for muscle pain a few days ago. Should I be concerned about my blood pressure or anything else? Would love some guidance.
Get your pressures checked again. If high meet doctor and start medicines . Avoid extra salt. Get a 2DEcho and Ultrasound abdomen.

What 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.
