I'm really worried because I've been having this pain on the left side of my chest for a few months now. I'm asthmatic but I'm not having any trouble breathing or coughing. I saw a heart doctor and he did an echo, which came back normal, and the chest X-ray was normal too. The pain is kind of between my lower ribs up to the upper side of my chest, and sometimes it goes to my back. I'm really scared about what it could be. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

View allI'm experiencing something strange after starting my TB medication. My heart beats really fast while I'm sleeping and even after I wake up. I don't have shortness of breath, just a persistent headache, and it's really bothering me because it's affecting my sleep. There's no cough either, just this constant headache and rapid heartbeat throughout the day. My blood pressure is around 13070. What could be causing these symptoms?
Continue same treatment as advised by the physician.

I'm trying to understand a recent exercise test result and have some worries. During the Bruce Protocol, I lasted for just over 7 minutes and reached 10.10 METs. My heart rate hit 179 beats per minute, which is apparently 95% of what they'd expect as my maximum. They stopped the test at that point, saying I'd hit my target heart rate. There was no usual chest pain, but I'm still concerned about whether stopping because of the heart rate is normal. Does this result suggest any potential heart issues I should be aware of?
The patient's exercise performance on the Bruce Protocol is impressive, reaching a workload of 10.10 METs and achieving a peak heart rate of 179 beatsminute, which is 95% of the predicted maximum. Since the exercise was terminated due to reaching the target heart rate without experiencing classical angina, it indicates good cardiovascular fitness. For the blood pressure response, it would be ideal to monitor the patient's blood pressure during exercise and recovery to assess their cardiovascular health comprehensively. In this case, considering the patient's exercise capacity and heart rate response, it would be beneficial to continue monitoring their blood pressure during physical activity to ensure safety and optimal performance. As for medication, based on the information provided, I would recommend discussing with a healthcare provider for personalized advice on any necessary medications or adjustments to the current regimen.

I've been taking a tablet every day for my blood pressure, and now my doctor has also prescribed stemetil MD 5 mg twice a day for 5 days. I'm just wondering if there are any interactions or side effects I should be aware of with this combination?
Stemetil MD 5mg, containing prochlorperazine, is typically prescribed for nausea, vomiting, and vertigo, and taking it twice daily for 5 days is likely intended to address a specific symptom or condition, such as migraines or inner ear disturbances, rather than directly affecting your blood pressure management.
