I've been having this pain in the heart area of my chest for over three months now, and it happens about twice a week. I haven't been doing any kind of exercise recently. I'm starting to get really worried about it. Could this be something I should be concerned about? What might be causing this, and what should I do?

I've been having some weird issues with my heart rate. Like, even when I'm just resting, it's going over 100, and if I take a few steps, it jumps to about 150 and stays like that for 2-3 hours. My blood pressure's kind of off too, hovering around 13080, but sometimes the bottom number goes up to 85 or so. I get tired for no reason, and theres some pain in my left arm and leg if I walk a bit. I also get headaches and find myself out of breath after exercising, though not all the time. I got an ECG done, but I'm not sure what to make of it. Could you help me figure out whats going on or suggest what I should do next?

Based on your symptoms and ECG report, it appears that you may be experiencing tachycardia (fast heart rate) and possible signs of heart disease. The elevated heart rate, fluctuating blood pressure, fatigue, left arm pain, leg pain, headache, and shortness of breath after exercise are concerning symptoms that warrant further evaluation. I recommend that you consult with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management. In the meantime, you can start taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate and blood pressure. Additionally, you should make lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, maintaining a healthy diet, and managing stress to improve your overall cardiovascular health. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further testing and treatment recommendations based on your specific condition.

I'm worried because last night my blood pressure was at 15790, so I took Amlong 2.5, but it didn't seem to work by the morning. I ended up taking a Nebicard 5mg without consulting my doctor, and by the evening, my BP came down to 12979. I'm a bit anxious about whether Nebicard 5mg is safe for me to use in such situations. Should I try Amlong 5mg instead, or is sticking with Nebicard better? I'm really unsure what to do and would appreciate some advice.

Nebicard 5 mg is advised SOS basis , rest continue all the medications as advised by the cardiologist..

I'm feeling a bit worried because I did ECG, echo, TMT, and a CT angiography back in November 2021, and everything turned out normal back then. But now I'm dealing with chest pain again from time to time, and I've got some acidity issues too. I'm wondering, is it necessary for me to repeat those tests? If so, how long should I wait before doing them again?

In your case, since you are experiencing chest pain again along with acidity issues, it would be advisable to consult with your doctor for further evaluation. The doctor may recommend medications to manage your acidity and chest pain symptoms. For acidity, you can take antacids like Omeprazole 20mg once a day before breakfast. For chest pain, you can take Paracetamol 500mg as needed for pain relief. If the symptoms persist or worsen, a follow-up with your doctor may be necessary for a reassessment.
