I've been having some weird symptoms lately. A few days ago, I woke up with this chest pain and it kinda hurt when I breathed. My inhaler helped a bit, but then yesterday, my blood pressure reading at the dentist was 15074, which is way higher than my usual 120-127 for the systolic part. I'm trying to figure out if I should just make an appointment with my GP or if it's serious enough to hit up urgent care or the ER. What do you think?

I'm dealing with shortness of breath whenever I lift something heavy or climb stairs. A doctor mentioned heart valve replacement before. I'm curious about how serious this could be and what steps I might need to take. Could this really be related to the heart valve issue, or might there be something else going on? Would replacement be the only option?

Shortness of breath during physical activity can be a sign of heart valve problems. In your case, it may be necessary to consider a heart valve replacement surgery. One common medication prescribed for such conditions is Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) at a dosage of 25-100mg per day. However, the specific treatment plan should be discussed with your healthcare provider after a thorough evaluation of your condition.

I'm really worried about my dad. He recently visited a doctor who suggested some blood tests along with ECG and TMT. Thankfully, all his blood parameters, including cholesterol, TG, and lipid levels, are within the normal range. But during the TMT, he experienced very mild chest pain, and the doctor marked it as TMT positive for RMI. I'm really concerned about what this means. Should we be considering angiography and maybe even angioplasty for him?

I've been dealing with high blood pressure and I've been prescribed Cilaheart. Since starting it, I've been struggling with insomnia and muscle weakness. I'm really worried that the medication might be causing these problems. Can medications like this have such side effects? Also, could you suggest any alternatives to Cilaheart and maybe some lifestyle changes I can make to help with my blood pressure?
