I've been experiencing chest pain on the left side for about 8 months now. I've had an ECG and an Echo, and both came back normal. I even did a TMT test, and it was negative too, even though it showed a heart problem. But I'm still having this chest pain. Could you shed some light on what might be going on? It's really concerning.

View allI'm really worried because for the past four months I've been dealing with high blood pressure, fatigue, and dizziness. A month ago, I saw a physician who told me my BP was 150100 and put me on some tablets. I started with Prolomet XL 25, then added Amlong 2.5 after dinner. For a couple of weeks, things seemed better with my BP at 13080, but the dizziness and fatigue haven't gone away. I've never felt like this before. Do you think there are other medicines I should consider or any other advice you might have?
It's good that your blood pressure has improved with the medications you are currently taking. However, if you are still experiencing dizziness and fatigue, it may be necessary to adjust your medication regimen. I would recommend adding a medication like Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5mg once daily in the morning. This medication can help further control your blood pressure and reduce the dizziness and fatigue symptoms you are experiencing. Remember to consult with your physician before making any changes to your medication regimen."

I'm really concerned about my mom. She had a heart attack at the end of October and initially had some anginal pain, but the meds seemed to help for a couple of months. After an angiography, her doctor found an 85% blockage in the LCX OM artery and decided to do an angioplasty. I was hoping that would improve things, but a month later, her LVEF dropped from 45 to 32. Before the angioplasty, her heart was stable, and the dimensions of the left atrium and ventricle seemed normal, but now they're dilated. I was expecting her to get better after the angioplasty and I'm really worried. It's just me and my mom, and I need some guidance on what could be happening. Can you help?
The drop in LVEF after angioplasty may be due to various factors such as the extent of the heart muscle damage from the heart attack, the response to the stent placement, or potential complications post-procedure. To help improve her heart function and prevent further deterioration, her doctor may consider adding medications like Carvedilol (Coreg) to help improve heart function and reduce strain on the heart. Additionally, medications like Lisinopril (Zestril) may be prescribed to help reduce the risk of future heart-related events. It's important for your mother to follow up regularly with her cardiologist for monitoring her heart function and adjusting her treatment plan as needed. Encouraging her to maintain a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management can also support her heart health. Stay positive and supportive for your mother during this challenging time
