I'm really concerned about some symptoms I've been experiencing. I started taking Eliwel 10mg for nerve pain about 20 days ago, but suddenly I got rapid heartbeats and chest pain on October 1st with pain intensity around 710. When I went to the doctor, my heartbeat was going from 60s to 110. The doctor gave me Nebicard 5mg and suggested getting an ECG and echo. The ECG was abnormal but the echo was normal, and the doc said not to worry. But the chest pain lingered for 34 days, and I also had some shortness of breath. I've stopped taking Eliwel on my own, which helped a bit, but I still have some chest pain, maybe around a 410. Yesterday I saw a cardiologist who did a TMT test; that was normal too, but the ECG was still abnormal. I've attached my reports. Is there anything here I should be worried about?

Based on your symptoms and the abnormal ECG findings, it seems like you may have experienced some adverse effects from the Eliwel (Amitriptyline) medication. The rapid heart beat and chest pain could be related to this. Nebicard (Nebivolol) 5mg was prescribed to help with the rapid heart beat. Since you have already discontinued Eliwel and your symptoms have improved but not completely resolved, I would recommend discussing with your doctor about alternative medications for nerve pain. For your ongoing chest pain, you can consider taking a pain reliever like Paracetamol 500mg as needed for pain relief. It is important to follow up with your Cardiologist for further evaluation and management of the abnormal ECG findings. If the chest pain persists or worsens, do not hesitate to seek medical attention promptly.

View allI've been dealing with headaches last week that lasted for two days, and my BP was at 240160. I got an MRIMRA done, and luckily everything was normal. Started taking Cilacar 10mg once a day, and from the next day, my BP seemed under control. But today, it suddenly spiked to 180120 this evening. I can only get in to see a doctor tomorrow. Should I consider taking half of the Cilacar 10mg now to help lower it?

I'm experiencing some pain in my left arm and a bit of discomfort in my chest, along with some left side back pain. There's also a little bit of gas. Could you tell me if this could be something serious? There aren't any other symptoms.
Based on your symptoms, it is important to rule out any potential heart-related issues. The combination of left arm pain, chest discomfort, and back pain could be indicative of a heart problem. It is recommended to take a tablet of aspirin (e.g. Bayer Aspirin 325mg) immediately and seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, you can take an antacid for the gas relief (e.g. Tums) while waiting for medical help.

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure levels. If my blood pressure is sitting at 14090 even though I'm taking Ramistar 2.5 mg, is that okay? Should I be concerned, or is there anything else I should be doing? I'm not sure if this medication is doing enough, so I could really use some guidance here.
