I've been having this strange feeling in the middle of my chest, right about my breasts, for a couple of days now. It's hard to put into words but it feels kind of tight and heavy, and sometimes it even hurts when I breathe. I'm starting to get worried. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

The symptoms you're describing, such as a tight and heavy feeling in the middle of your chest, discomfort when breathing, and difficulty describing the sensation, could be related to various conditions, including anxiety, stress, or even a panic attack; however, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation, especially if the symptoms persist or worsen, to rule out any underlying cardiac or respiratory issues.

View allI was recently prescribed concor cor 2.5 for my blood pressure, which is 13090, and I have a heart rate of 113. Since I'm always on the go and sometimes end up skipping breakfast, I'm wondering if it's okay to take this medication on an empty stomach. Is that safe, or should I make sure to eat something first?
Concor Cor 2.5 is a brand name for Bisoprolol, which is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure and heart conditions. It is generally recommended to take Bisoprolol with food to help with absorption and reduce the risk of stomach upset. If you often skip breakfast, you can take your dose with a light snack or a small meal to minimize any potential stomach discomfort. It is important to take the medication as prescribed by your doctor.

I've been waking up with a pretty bad headache and noticing that my blood pressure readings are quite high in the morning, sometimes hitting around 160100. It seems to settle down by around noon and stays normal for the rest of the day. Im currently on Espin AT and Equasite 12.5 every morning. Is this something I should be worried about? What's causing these high readings in the morning?
It seems like you are experiencing morning hypertension, which is a common issue for some individuals. To help manage your blood pressure more effectively throughout the day, you can consider taking your medications at different times. I recommend taking your Espin AT in the morning as usual, but you may benefit from taking your Equasite 12.5 in the evening instead. This can help provide more consistent blood pressure control throughout the day. Make sure to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.

Is my EKG normal? Can you manually check the QTc levels because last time the machine got it wrong? Also, I'm confused about what non-specific ST depression means. From what I understand, ST depression is linked to a heart attack or ischemia. I've had ECGs before, but this is the first time I've seen this in the report. Could you help explain this?
Regarding the EKG, I cannot check the QTc levels manually through this platform. Non-specific ST depression on an EKG means that there are changes in the ST segment of the EKG that are not specifically indicative of a heart attack or ischemia. It can be caused by various factors such as electrolyte imbalances, medications, or even normal variation. If you have concerns about the findings on your EKG, it would be best to discuss them with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and interpretation.
