View allI've been having some discomfort in my left arm, mostly around the shoulder joint and it also reaches down to my wrist. It's not super intense, but the pain is noticeable. Occasionally, I also experience a chest pain on the left side that comes and goes, but it usually feels better after I burp a few times. Does anyone know if this could be a heart issue, just gastric pain, or maybe something else? I did get a general health check-up last year, including heart tests like ECG, chest X-ray, and treadmill test, and everything was normal back then. Any thoughts on what this might be?
Immediate Actions* 1. *Schedule a doctor's appointment*: Book an appointment with your primary care physician or a hematologist (blood specialist) to discuss your symptoms. 2. *Keep a bruising journal*: Document the location, size, and duration of each bruise to help your doctor identify patterns. *Potential Causes* 1. *Bleeding disorders*: Conditions like thrombocytopenia (low platelet count) or von Willebrand disease may cause easy bruising. 2. *Vitamin deficiencies*: Lack of vitamins like C, K, or B12 can affect blood clotting and lead to bruising. 3. *Autoimmune disorders*: Conditions like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis can cause bruising and joint pain. 4. *Medication side effects*: Certain medications, such as blood thinners or steroids, can increase bruising. *Tests and Examinations* 1. *Complete Blood Count (CBC)*: To check for bleeding disorders or vitamin deficiencies. 2. *Blood clotting tests*: To assess your blood's ability to clot. 3. *Physical examination*: To check for signs of autoimmune disorders or other underlying conditions. *What to Expect* 1. *Discussion of symptoms*: Share your bruising journal and discuss your symptoms with your doctor. 2. *Diagnostic tests*: Undergo tests to determine the underlying cause of your bruising. 3. *Treatment plan*: Based on the diagnosis, your doctor will create a treatment plan to address the underlying condition.

I'm a 30-year-old male and I've been having some trouble with my BP medication. About a year ago, my blood pressure spiked to 175120 and my doctor prescribed Telma 40 along with another medicine for a week. Over time, I stopped taking Telma 40 and hadn't used it for the last 3 months. Recently, I switched to Prolomet XL 25, but it doesn't seem to suit me. What should I do?
It seems like you are experiencing some difficulties with Prolomet XL 25. Since Telma 40 worked well for you in managing your blood pressure, I would recommend you to consult your doctor for a prescription of Telma 40 again. Additionally, you can also consider adding a diuretic like Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg to your current medication regimen to help control your blood pressure more effectively. Remember to follow your doctor's advice regarding the dosage and frequency of these medications.

I'm experiencing heart palpitations, a fluttering feeling in my chest, and shortness of breath. I've already had an ECG, TMT, and echo scan, and all of the results came back normal. Why might this be happening?
Heart palpitations, fluttering, and shortness of breath can be caused by various factors, even if your ECG, TMT, and echo scan results are normal. One possible cause could be anxiety or stress. However, other causes such as thyroid disorders, electrolyte imbalances, or certain medications can also lead to these symptoms. In your case, since your reports are normal, I recommend trying a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help with the palpitations and fluttering. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and stress management may also be beneficial in reducing these symptoms.
