I'm really worried about some symptoms I've been experiencing. Whenever I get tired, I start having short breaths and feel this chest pain. I can walk for a bit if I go slowly, but after a few minutes, I start running out of breath and the chest pain comes back. Does this sound like something serious? What should I do about it?

View allHey, I accidentally took two MetpureXL25 tablets this morning instead of just one. Is that something I need to worry about or should I just continue with my day as usual?
It is important to be cautious with this medication as it can lower your blood pressure and heart rate significantly. You should monitor your blood pressure and heart rate closely for the next few hours. If you experience any symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, or shortness of breath, please seek medical attention immediately. In case of overdose, treatment may include supportive measures and monitoring of vital signs. It is advisable to contact a healthcare professional or poison control center for further guidance. Please be more careful with your medication regimen in the future to avoid such incidents.

I'm really worried about my blood pressure. For the past two weeks, it's been extremely high, like in the Hypertensive Crisis range, reaching 190130 or 180120, even though I'm taking Telma CT 40. My test results, like the Echo, LFT, and KFT, are all normal. Why is my blood pressure still so high? What could be causing this?
It's concerning that your blood pressure remains high despite taking Telma CT 40. Since your test reports are normal, the high blood pressure may be due to uncontrolled hypertension or other underlying factors. In this situation, adding Amlodipine 5mg along with Telma CT 40 can help in better control of blood pressure. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, regular exercise, and stress management can also play a crucial role in managing hypertension. Regular monitoring of blood pressure and follow-up with your healthcare provider is essential.

I'm a bit worried because I woke up this morning with my heart racing and ended up going to the ER. They told me I have PSVT and PVC. It felt like my heart stopped and then started again, but they said my echo was normal. Are these arrhythmias something I should be concerned about?
PSVT and PVC can be concerning but are usually not life-threatening. However, it is important to manage them to prevent complications. For PSVT, medications like Verapamil or Metoprolol can be prescribed to control heart rate during episodes. For PVC, if symptoms are bothersome, medications like Propranolol can be used to reduce their frequency. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is recommended to monitor your condition and adjust treatment as needed.
