I'm really worried because my blood pressure is reading 140100. I know that's considered high, and I'm wondering what medicine I should be taking for it. Is this something I need to be urgently concerned about? Should I see a doctor right away?

According to me you have to measure your bp once daily and make a report after that we can make a conclusion and if it is prehypertension range we can try some lifestyle changles avoid salt tea coffee stress etc

I'm really concerned about this pain I'm experiencing. It's not just in my chest but also in my back near the shoulder blade, and it's accompanied by headaches and some numbness in my left hand. I've also been feeling short of breath. I had an ECG done, and it came back normal. What could be going on here? Should I be worried or looking into something else?

I've been on Tazloc Beta 25 for about 3 years now, and I've noticed something odd with my liver function tests. I've had them done three times during this period, and each time my total bilirubin levels have been between 1.33 and 1.45. Before I started taking the BP pills, my liver tests were always normal. Do you think the medication could be affecting my liver, or could there be another reason for this change? I haven't noticed any liver-related symptoms, but it's a bit concerning. Could you shed some light on this?

The medication Tazloc Beta 25 contains Telmisartan and Metoprolol, which are commonly used to treat high blood pressure. While these medications are generally well-tolerated, they can rarely cause liver enzyme abnormalities in some individuals. Since your total bilirubin levels have been elevated since starting the medication, it is possible that Tazloc Beta 25 may be contributing to this change in your LFT results. I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider to evaluate the need for further investigation or potential adjustment of your medication.
