I've been having some strange symptoms lately when I masturbate or watch intimate scenes. My chest gets tight, it feels like there's a lump in my throat, and I have shortness of breath. I sometimes even feel light-headed with my heart racing. I've had heart and lung tests but everything came back normal. Do you have any idea what this might be?

I'm monitoring my blood pressure, and it's been around 15595 for the past three days. I've been feeling a slight sensitive vibration in my head, too. This is the first time my blood pressure has been high like this, and I haven't taken any medication before. What would you recommend I do? Is there a specific tablet I should consider?

Why do heart attacks happen at night?

Researchers found that at around 6:30 a.m. the circadian system sends out an increased amount of PAI-1 cells which blocks blood clots from breaking down. The more PAI-1 cells in the blood, the higher the risk for a blood clot that leads to a heart attack

I'm having this pain that comes and goes around my chest and shoulder area, but it's mostly around my heart. I've been really stressed out these past couple of weeks and I'm worried about what it could be. I had an ECG and a chest X-ray done at a diagnostic center, and there were no issues found. I'm 28 years old and weigh 81 kilos. Could you suggest any medicine for pain relief, or do you think I should be looking into something else? I'm actually quite puzzled about what's going on.
