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?

View allI'm experiencing this buzzing sensation on the left side of my chest that comes and goes quickly. It's been happening since yesterday. I know I might be anemic, but could this be because my hemoglobin levels are low?
The intermittent buzzing sensation in your left chest area could be related to various factors, including anxiety, stress, or cardiac issues, but it's unlikely directly caused by low hemoglobin (Hb) levels due to anemia; however, anemia can lead to heart palpitations, shortness of breath, or dizziness, so it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation, including blood tests and possibly an ECG, to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms.

I've been dealing with high bp since 2017 and have been taking medscinod and nebicard. Everything was stable until I gained around 10kgs after getting married, and now my bp is often spiking to 140150 and 9095. I've started incorporating some physical activity and diet control into my routine. Do you think I should consider changing my medications along with these lifestyle changes?

I'm really worried about my brother Jiten, who was in the cardiac care unit recently. He's just 28 and now that he's home, his blood pressure keeps dropping in the evening, and he starts vomiting. After that, his skin turns pale and he experiences pain in his right calf. I'm also noticing that he's coughing a bit. The hospital stay was stable after his procedure with the AICD implant, but I'm worried about these symptoms popping up. His meds include things like concor, aldactone, and levoflox among others. Could you advise on what might help him recover better and keep these symptoms in check?
To address the symptoms of low blood pressure, vomiting, pale skin, calf pain, and cough, the following adjustments can be made to the medication regimen: 1. **Low Blood Pressure and Vomiting**: Given the symptoms of low blood pressure and vomiting, it is important to review the medications that may be contributing to these side effects. In this case, Dytor 10mg (Torsemide) is a diuretic that can lower blood pressure and cause electrolyte imbalances leading to vomiting. It may be advisable to reduce the dosage of Dytor or consider an alternative diuretic. 2. **Pale Skin and Calf Pain**: The symptoms of pale skin and calf pain could be indicative of poor blood circulation. To address this, it is important to ensure adequate hydration and blood flow. Aldactone 25mg (Spironolactone) can sometimes cause electrolyte imbalances leading to symptoms like calf pain. Monitoring electrolyte levels and adjusting the dosage of Aldactone may be beneficial. 3. **Cough**: If the cough persists, it may be related to heart failure or respiratory issues. Dapaone 10mg (Dapagliflozin) is a medication used to treat heart failure. However, if the cough is persistent and bothersome, a review of the medication regimen and potential respiratory evaluation may be necessary. 4. **Overall Recommendation**: Considering the symptoms described, it may be beneficial to consult with the healthcare provider who prescribed the medications. Adjustments in medication dosages or alternative medications may be necessary to address the symptoms of low blood pressure, vomiting, pale skin, calf pain, and cough effectively. Please note that any changes to the medication regimen should be done under the supervision and guidance of a healthcare professional. Regular monitoring and follow-up with the healthcare provider are essential for optimal management of these symptoms.
