I've been having this really hard time breathing and there's this weird feeling in my chest where my heart is. Sometimes, it feels like I'm about to take my last breath, and it's really scary. I have no clue what's causing all this. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really concerned about some persistent pain in my chest since an auto accident 40 days ago. The x-ray mentioned something about an altered cardio thoracic ratio, and honestly, that's got me a bit worried. I've been using volini and doing hot compresses, but nothing seems to help. Can you advise on what might be going on and what I should do next?

take tablet zerodol for 5 days twice a day

I'm really worried about my grandfather who's 76. He was hospitalized twice because his blood pressure went up to 200100. We have the ECG from when he was in the hospital and his prescription too. Since getting discharged, his blood pressure is fine during the day, but at night it gradually rises to somewhere between 16080 and 18090. Does the ECG indicate he's had a heart attack? Are the medications he's on appropriate?

If the ECG shows sinus rhythm with no signs of acute myocardial infarction. The medications prescribed are Amlodipine 5mg once daily and Atenolol 25mg once daily. These are appropriate medications for controlling high blood pressure. However, since your grandfather's blood pressure is still increasing during the night, a medication adjustment may be needed. I recommend consulting with the doctor who prescribed these medications to discuss the possibility of increasing the dosage or adding another medication to better control his blood pressure during the night.

I'm trying to figure out which medication I should take to get my blood pressure under control. I'm 105 kgs and 6 feet tall. My blood pressure reading is 140 over 80, and I'm wondering if that's considered severe. Could you recommend something for immediate relief?

To get your blood pressure under control, considering your weight and height, you can start with a low dose of Amlodipine (brand name: Norvasc) 5mg once daily. This medication helps to relax the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. A blood pressure reading of 14080 is considered prehypertension, and it is important to take steps to lower it to prevent it from becoming high blood pressure.
