I've been having a heavy feeling and some pain on the left side of my chest, close to my heart, since this morning. I'm really concerned that it could be something related to my heart, even though I'm only 28. Should I be worried about this, or could it be something else?

I've been worried about getting the COVID vaccine because of some heart issues. My father had an angiogram back in 2012, and though he's not on any medication now, I've occasionally felt mild heart pain that seems to go away after a bit. I'm really unsure about whether it's safe for me to get the vaccine given these concerns. Can you offer any advice on this? Is there a risk involved?

It is important to consult with a cardiologist before taking any decision regarding the Covid vaccination. However, based on the information provided, it is generally safe for individuals with a history of angiogram to receive the Covid vaccine.

My brother's been taking Olmezest H20 for his blood pressure, but sometimes it still shows high readings. The doctor recommended adding Amlodipine 5 mg to his routine. I'm wondering if that's a good idea or if switching to Olmezest H40 might be better. What do you think?

use amlodipine 5 mg
