I've been experiencing some unusual symptoms and I'm getting a bit worried. A few days ago, I had trouble breathing, and then I started feeling pain in my ribs that moved towards my left chest. It happened again recently, and I'm concerned it might be related to a heart issue. Could you please advise me on what this could be or suggest any treatment?

I'm a bit worried about my heart rate and blood pressure. When I'm sleeping, my heart rate is around 58 bpm, but when I wake up, it's suddenly at 7275 bpm, and while I'm moving, it's about 90 bpm. Also, I checked my blood pressure on a digital machine at home, and it showed readings of 12586 and 12789. Is this normal, or should I be concerned? I'm feeling a little anxious about all this.

A heart rate of 58 bpm while sleeping, 72-75 bpm upon waking, and 90 bpm when moving is within normal ranges. - Your blood pressure readings of 12586 and 12789 are also within normal limits. - There is no need to be anxious about these values as they fall within the normal range for heart rate and blood pressure. - However, if you have persistent concerns or symptoms, it is always advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and guidance.

I'm currently on metolar, and I've been wondering if it's okay to have garlic on an empty stomach in the morning. Could it affect the medicine or my health in any way?

Better not to take on empty stomach as it might cause gastritis
