I've been having this really awful chest pain for about a month now, and it sometimes feels like my heartbeat is a bit off. After doing a bunch of research, I think it might be esophageal spasms. I went to the ER twice, and they said my EKG and heart monitor were fine. My doctor gave me muscle relaxers, which help with the spasms, but I still cant shake this terrible feeling in my chest. My blood pressure seems okay, it's usually around 120 over 86. I keep feeling my pulse all down my chest and arms, and its been really hard to get any sleep. Could there be something else going on that Im missing?

View allI'm a bit concerned about the price of my uncle's medication. He's been using Stamlo T to control his BP, but it costs INR 100 per strip, which seems quite steep. I found another medicine, OZOTELAM, that reportedly has the same composition and only costs INR 20 per strip. Why is there such a big price difference between these meds if they have the same ingredients? Also, would it be safe for my uncle to switch to OZOTELAM since it's more affordable, and is the composition truly identical, or am I missing something? Looking forward to your advice.

I'm experiencing a headache and body pain after taking my morning medicine. I'm on Prolomet XL 25 and Nitrofix SR 30. Is this something I should be worried about?

I'm really worried after getting a report from the hospital. Can you help me figure out what's wrong by looking over this report? I'm not entirely sure about the details, and it's making me anxious. Could you give me some clarity on the situation?
Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.
