I'm really worried about my husband. He's been waking up in the middle of the night sweating and struggling to breathe, and this has happened twice in just three days. We checked his blood pressure both times he woke up, and it was 148110 with a pulse of 75 the first time, and 140100 with a pulse of 85 the second time. He usually takes TeldayH every day for his high blood pressure, which generally keeps it under control. His blood sugar levels were also normal when we checked them yesterday, and his ECG was fine in January. He did have a gout attack around the same time, and his uric acid levels were 8.7 then, and he's also dealing with high cholesterol. Right now, he's on Febuxostat and Jupiros. I'm just trying to figure out why he's having these night sweats and breathing problems. Could it be related to his medication or something else?

My brother has been experiencing chest pain for the last three days and is also having trouble breathing. He's even had an endoscopy done. What might be causing these symptoms, and should we be concerned?
Given that your brother has been experiencing chest pain and breathing difficulties for the past three days, it is crucial to seek prompt medical attention. While an endoscopy can help identify gastrointestinal causes such as GERD or ulcers, chest pain combined with breathing problems can also indicate serious conditions like cardiac issues, respiratory infections, or pulmonary problems. It's essential to have a comprehensive evaluation by a healthcare provider, which may include an ECG, chest X-ray, or other diagnostic tests to determine the underlying cause and ensure appropriate treatment. Please take him to the nearest emergency room or consult his healthcare provider immediately.
