I've been having this weird chest pain for about a month now. It gets worse when I'm lying down, breathing deeply, or exercising. I tried taking muscle relaxants for three days, and it helped a bit, but now the pain's back. It's not unbearable, but it feels really uncomfortable and tight when I try to take a deep breath. What could this be, and what should I do about it?

View allI'm really worried about my mother-in-law's ECho report because it mentions Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction. Is this something we should be concerned about? The ECG looks normal, thankfully. Could you help me understand if everything's alright?

I'm a 21-year-old guy and I've been taking Concor Cor 2.5 mg every day for the past couple of months to help with chest pain, not for high blood pressure. I'm feeling better now and was wondering how I can stop taking it safely without causing any problems? I'd really appreciate your advice!
Continue all the medications..

I've been having a fast heart rate between 100 and 120 over the last few days. I'm using a brown inhaler for my asthma and an over-the-counter decongestant because of nasal polyps. Could these meds be causing it? If I stop taking them, how long might it take for my heart rate to go back to normal?
Both your asthma inhaler medication and the over-the-counter decongestant can contribute to an increased heart rate. The bronchodilator medication in your inhaler can cause a temporary increase in heart rate as a side effect. Similarly, decongestants can also stimulate the heart and lead to a faster heart rate. If you stop taking these medications, your heart rate should return to normal within a few hours to a few days, depending on how long you have been taking them and your body's response. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.
