I'm having some trouble with leg pain when I try to climb stairs, even just to the first floor. The pain seems to be worse in my calf muscle and I end up feeling really tired afterward. Is this something I should be worried about? Could it be a sign of a bigger issue, and what might help ease the pain?

View allI've been dealing with some pain near my heart, left shoulder, and back for the past three years. Theres a mild problem at C5 C6. I've had a bunch of ECGs and they always come back normal. With these results, do you think I still need an ECO or TMT? I'm just trying to figure out what should be my next steps.
From last 3 years, you have been experiencing pain near the heart, left shoulder pain, and back pain. You mentioned there was a mild disc prolapse in C5-C6. Despite undergoing multiple ECGs, they have all been normal. You are now wondering if an ECO (Echocardiogram) or TMT (Treadmill Test) is necessary. Given your symptoms and history of normal ECG results, it would be advisable to undergo an ECO to further evaluate the structure and function of your heart. An ECO can provide more detailed information that may not be captured by an ECG alone, especially in cases of suspected cardiac issues. Additionally, considering your persistent symptoms and the need for a more comprehensive assessment, a TMT may also be beneficial to assess your heart's response to physical activity. For your situation, I would recommend an ECO to assess your heart's structure and function, and a TMT to evaluate your heart's response to exercise. These tests can provide valuable insights into the cause of your symptoms and help guide further management.

I'm curious about ciplar 10 mg. The doctor prescribed it to me, and I'm wondering what it's for exactly. I was thinking of only taking it before going to social events. Could you give me some advice on this?
Cipar 10mg contains propanolol, which is a beta-blocker, used in the treatment of systemic hypertension and other cardiac abnormalities such as arrhythmia. It would be advisable to consult the prescribing physician and inquire the what was the indication of its use.

I've been dealing with some annoying symptoms lately like this slight headache, stiff muscles around my neck, facial pain, and just feeling really tired all the time. I started taking some meds initially like amchek 5mg, then switched to amlong 5, and now I'm on omlesar 10 with nebicard 2.5mg. But for a few weeks, I stopped them, and yesterday my blood pressure shot up to 190138. So I got back on just omlesar, but my blood pressure is still pretty high at 180104. What should I do?
It seems like you are experiencing high blood pressure despite restarting omlesar. In this case, you may benefit from adding another medication to better control your blood pressure. I recommend adding a diuretic such as Lasix (furosemide) 40mg to help reduce the fluid in your body and lower your blood pressure. Please consult your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and prescription of this medication. Additionally, it's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle with a low-sodium diet, regular exercise, and stress management techniques to help manage your blood pressure.
