I've been dealing with headaches last week that lasted for two days, and my BP was at 240160. I got an MRIMRA done, and luckily everything was normal. Started taking Cilacar 10mg once a day, and from the next day, my BP seemed under control. But today, it suddenly spiked to 180120 this evening. I can only get in to see a doctor tomorrow. Should I consider taking half of the Cilacar 10mg now to help lower it?

I'm having some slight chest pain and noticed a little change in my ECG readings. Could this be related to the medications I'm taking? I'm currently on Ecosprin, Thinrin, Concor, Coversyl, and Crestor. Should I be worried about this combination of medicines affecting my heart?

The chest pain and ECG variation could be due to underlying cardiovascular issues. The medications you mentioned are commonly used for heart conditions: - ECOSPRIN (Aspirin) is a blood thinner and antiplatelet medication. The usual dosage for heart conditions is 75-325mg per day. - THINRIN (Clopidogrel) is also a blood thinner and antiplatelet medication. The usual dosage is 75mg per day. - CONCOR (Bisoprolol) is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure and heart conditions. The usual dosage ranges from 2.5mg to 10mg per day. - COVERSYL (Perindopril) is an ACE inhibitor used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. The usual dosage ranges from 2mg to 16mg per day. - CRESTOR (Rosuvastatin) is a statin medication used to lower cholesterol levels. The usual dosage ranges from 5mg to 40mg per day. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I'm having this pain that comes and goes around my chest and shoulder area, but it's mostly around my heart. I've been really stressed out these past couple of weeks and I'm worried about what it could be. I had an ECG and a chest X-ray done at a diagnostic center, and there were no issues found. I'm 28 years old and weigh 81 kilos. Could you suggest any medicine for pain relief, or do you think I should be looking into something else? I'm actually quite puzzled about what's going on.
