I've been dealing with chest pain for the past one and a half months. I've had a chest X-ray, ECG, Echo, and TMT done, and all the reports came back normal. I even went to a cardiologist, and he said it's not related to my heart. The pain started about a week after I found out I have high BP. I'm currently taking Prolomet AM, Pantocid IT, Drise 60k, and Rozavel. The pain feels like muscle pain on the upper side of my chest, on both sides. Sometimes, it feels like a pinch all over my chest. It also extends to my underarms and neck occasionally, and I feel tightness, especially on the upper right side of my chest. I sometimes have itching in my chest and sensations below my chin and jawline. What's strange is that I feel a bit better after some physical activity, like exercising or walking. Could you help me figure out what's going on? What should I do next?

View allI'm experiencing this weird upper left chest pain that's been going on for the last three days, it seems to come back every few months or weeks. Thankfully it's stopped now, but I'm worried because now my left hand thumb's base has started hurting for two days. Could you help me figure out what's going on here? Why does this keep happening?
An ecg and cardiac markers are advised.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 50 and has been dealing with some health issues for the last ten days. He fainted last Saturday and his blood pressure dropped to 9363, with a fever of 102F. Our regular doctor gave him paracetamol, but then the same thing happened again on Sunday. We rushed him to another doctor who found moderate pericardial effusion and admitted him to the ICUU. They ended up putting in a temporary pacemaker because his pulse rate was falling below 50 bpm. It seemed to help, but then after they removed the pacemaker, his atrial fibrillation was varying quite a bit. The doctor adjusted his medication, and now the AF is still shifting between 110 and 130. They mentioned something about fluid dissolving, but I'm not sure what the next steps should be. Any advice on how we should proceed?
It sounds like your father has been through a lot with the pericardial effusion and subsequent atrial fibrillation. It's good to hear that 90% of the fluid has been dissolved. To continue managing the atrial fibrillation, the doctor may prescribe medications such as Metoprolol (25-50mg twice daily) to help control the heart rate. Additionally, blood thinners like Warfarin (2.5-5mg once daily) may be prescribed to prevent blood clots. It's important to monitor his heart rate and rhythm regularly and follow up with the doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm wondering if a blood pressure reading of 113 over 81 is considered normal. My diastolic seems to fluctuate between 81 and 90 and I'm noticing that my systolic always tends to stay on the lower side. Could you give me some insight into whether this is something I should be concerned about or if it's within a normal range?
Blood pressure of 11381 is considered normal. Diastolic blood pressure fluctuating between 81-90 is still within normal range. It is common for diastolic blood pressure to fluctuate slightly. As long as your systolic blood pressure remains on the lower side and within normal range, there is usually no cause for concern.
