I'm really worried about my brother. He's been having some chest discomfort and mild pain that sometimes happens on the left side and other times in the center. He gets really nervous, and his heart rate spikes to around 90-98 bpm when this happens, but when he's more relaxed, it goes back down to about 68-72 bpm. He runs on the treadmill for 20 to 30 minutes at least five days a week and doesn't feel any discomfort during that time. Although he has an acidity and GERD problem, he's finished his course of medication and isn't taking any other tablets. His sugar and blood pressure are normal, and chest X-rays came back fine, with an orthopaedic saying it's nothing serious and just suggesting vitamins. He also feels pain at certain points when the chest is pressed. With all these symptoms, I'm wondering if it could be his heart, acidity, muscular, or maybe even a nerve issue. Do you think an angiography would be necessary given his normal reports so far?

I'm currently taking medication for my blood pressure, but my last reading was 14583. Should I think about adjusting my dose, or is this level considered controlled? Can you provide some guidance on what I should do?

A blood pressure reading of 14583 is slightly elevated. It is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication dosage. However, if your doctor agrees, you may need to increase the dose of your current medication or add an additional medication to better control your blood pressure. It is important to follow your doctor's guidance on medication adjustments.

I'm a bit worried about my wife. She's been having these severe chest pains on her left side early in the morning. It happened around 5 am today and before that, at 2 am. There's nothing else with it like radiating pain, jaw pain, trouble breathing, or sweating, but the pain is pretty intense. It usually happens once and then subsides. This has been going on for about 78 days now. Do you think it could be something serious or is it just a muscular thing?

yes u can use it, visit ur physician for apprpropriate managent
