I'm really confused about what the normal blood pressure value is supposed to be. I've read online that it's 12080, but then I've also heard from doctors that 14090 is normal, and some even say up to 160100 isn't a problem. I'm really anxious about this and just want to know what the actual normal range for blood pressure is.

I'm really worried because after recovering from COVID in May, I've been having chest pain that comes and goes. At first, it eased up but then returned. I had a couple of ECGs; one was normal, but three months later, it showed an irregular heartbeat, although all other tests came back normal. My doctor thinks it might be costochondritis since the pain is really sharp and in the upper rib area. Last night things got intenseI woke up suddenly with really strong palpitations. A doctor I know recommended some medications including Thiospas 4 mg, Tramadol, and Dexa 4 mg for 3 days, to be tapered slowly. I've already taken steroids during my COVID treatment for about 9 days, and I'm really anxious about taking them again. Should I go ahead with this treatment? I need advice quickly.

Its understandable to be cautious after taking steroids during COVID. Given that your chest pain and irregular heartbeat are likely due to costochondritis, the suggested medications may help, but steroids like Dexa should only be taken under close medical supervision. It's important to discuss your concerns with your doctor, especially about tapering off steroids safely.

I'm currently taking Cardace 5 mg, Metolar XR 50, Pantadoc 40 mg, Levazeo 25, Ecospirin 50 mg, Clopilet 75 mg, a statin 20 mg, Istamet 1001000, and Thyronorm 37.5 daily. Do you think there's a possibility any medicine could be reduced?

Blurred vision, muscle pain, and tiredness can be side effects of certain medications. In your case, the combination of Cardace 5 mg, Metolar XR 50, Pantadoc 40 mg, Levazeo 25, Ecospirin 50 mg, Clopilet 75 mg, Statin 20 mg, Istamet 1001000, and Thyronorm 37.5 may be contributing to these symptoms.
