I'm taking some meds for high blood pressure, like METOLAR XR and TELMA 20, and I have a TMT test for a pre-employment check-up coming up. I'm a bit worried because I really can't afford to fail this test. Do I need to stop taking these meds on the day of the test, or will they affect the results? Can you let me know what I should do?

You can continue taking METOLAR XR and TELMA 20 on the day of your TMT test. These medications are commonly used for high blood pressure and should not significantly affect the results of the test. It is important to follow your regular dosage schedule. Good luck with your pre-employment medical test!"

I've been having this chest pain, mostly on the left side, but sometimes it just spreads everywhere around my chest. I've also been getting lightheaded, like my balance is off, and my ears keep popping and ringing. One weird thing is I randomly had testicle pain while I was at work the other day, plus headaches and muscle pain in my neck and jaw. I know I have anxiety which gives me panic attacks, but this feels different. Do you think it's all connected, or is there something else going on?
You may be experiencing symptoms that could be related to multiple issues. The chest pain, lightheadedness, balance issues, ear symptoms, testicle pain, headaches, and muscle pain in your neck and jaw could be related to various conditions. Given your history of anxiety and panic attacks, it's important to consider both physical and psychological factors. It's essential to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and to receive appropriate treatment.
