I'm really not that great at English, so bear with me. Anyway, about five days ago, I started feeling this chest tightness and had a lump-in-the-throat kind of feeling. I checked online and decided to drink a bottle of Smirnoff Mule vodkait works as my soda substitute. It helped a bit, though I could still feel a bit of tightness, but not as bad as before. So now, three days later, I'm feeling this discomfort in my lower left rib cage and my back, but there's no pain when I press on the area, and it disappeared after 24 hours. Right now, it's more about discomfort on the left side of my throat when I swallow, near my Adam's apple. I haven't had a fever since last week, either. Could you guide me on where I might be able to have a general check-up around the BGC or Pembo Makati area?

I'm really worried about my dad. He's diabetic and has high blood pressure, with a reading of 180100, and his sugar level is at 274. He's also got a fever and a cold. I've given him Crocin, but after 30 minutes, his temperature is still 101.4 and there's no improvement. He's feeling super weak, and I'm just not sure what medication would be best to give him. Any advice?
- Given his high blood pressure, diabetes, and fever, it's important to monitor his sugar levels closely, as fever can raise blood sugar. Since Crocin hasn't helped and he's feeling weak, I would recommend consulting his doctor immediately for a more appr

Ive been prescribed doxy 1 l dr Forte capsules, but I cant seem to find them at any pharmacy. Is it okay if I take DOXT sl capsules as an alternative? I'm a bit worried about making a change without consulting someone first.
Typically, tablets are swallowed with water. However, some tablets, like sublingual or orally disintegrating tablets, are designed to melt in the mouth. Check the medication label or packaging insert for specific instructions. If unsure, consult your healthcare provider to avoid incorrect administration. Your doctor or pharmacist can provide personalized guidance.
