I've been having these sudden chills or a cold feeling in my chest while I'm asleep, and it's been happening on and off, like a couple of times a week for the last few months. I already saw a cardiologist and did some tests to make sure it's not heart disease because I'm a 35-year-old guy who was recently told I have hypertension. Can someone help me figure out what might be causing this?

View allI've been taking Tazloc Beta 25 for the last four years because of my high blood pressure and concentric LVH. Lately, I've been feeling dizzy all the time, dealing with weakness, having some erection issues, and frequently experiencing stomach upsets and indigestion. I'm really concerned and would love some guidance on how I can safely stop this medication without any side effects. Or if there are any alternative meds you might recommend?
It's essential to manage your blood pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) effectively, but experiencing side effects like dizziness, weakness, erectile dysfunction, and digestive issues is concerning. Tazloc Beta 25 combines telmisartan (an angiotensin II receptor blocker) and metoprolol (a beta-blocker). Stopping or changing this medication should only be done under the supervision of your healthcare provider. Here are steps to consider: 1. Consult your doctor: Schedule an appointment to discuss your side effects and the possibility of changing your medication. 2. Gradual adjustment: Your doctor may suggest a gradual reduction in dosage to minimize withdrawal symptoms and avoid a sudden increase in blood pressure. 3. Alternative medications: Your doctor may consider other classes of antihypertensive drugs, such as ACE inhibitors (e.g., lisinopril), calcium channel blockers (e.g., amlodipine), or diuretics (e.g., hydrochlorothiazide), which might have different side effect profiles. It's crucial that any changes to your medication regimen are made under medical supervision to ensure your blood pressure remains controlled and to monitor for any potential side effects.

I'm noticing my heart beating louder than usual, and sometimes I can actually see it pounding on my chest. Should I be concerned about this? What could be causing it?
An ecg and cardiac markers are advised.

I'm having these episodes of anxiety throughout the day, and even when I'm calm and just doing my usual stuff, it sometimes feels like my heart skips a beat or beats really hard. It freaks me out. I can't tell if it's just the anxiety acting up or if there's something else going on. Any idea what's causing this? I'm really worried.
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations, which can be a common symptom of anxiety. However, it's important to rule out any other underlying medical conditions that may be causing these symptoms. I recommend you try taking Propranolol (Inderal) 10mg twice daily to help with both the anxiety and palpitations. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial in managing your symptoms.
