I've done all the tests like an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal, but I've been having this pain on my left side of the chest for a month now. I'm worried because it feels like it might be leading up to a heart attack. Could it still be something heart-related even if the tests were okay?

Since your ECG, echo, and TMT results are normal, your chest pain may not be related to a heart attack. However, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your chest pain. You can try taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for the chest pain. If the pain persists or worsens, you may consider taking an antacid like omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once a day to see if it helps with the pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and stress management may also be beneficial.

View allI'm really concerned about my mom. She had her MVR surgery back in December 2011, and for the past year and a half, she's been paralyzed. Recently, her INR levels were all over the place and hit 6, so we stopped her dose for three days. We've restarted with acitrom 2, but on November 10th her INR was 1.99 and PT was 20. I'm trying to figure out what the right dosage should be for her now. Any advice would be really helpful.
Regarding your mother's case, based on her current situation with an INR of 1.99 and PT of 20, the appropriate dose adjustment for her would be to continue with Acitrom 2, but with a slight increase in dosage. I recommend increasing the dose to Acitrom 2.5 to help stabilize her INR levels more effectively. It's important to monitor her INR levels regularly to ensure they stay within the target range.

I've been dealing with high blood pressure for the last six years, and I'm currently taking Olmesar 20 H. This past week, my blood pressure readings have been fluctuating between 13590 and 14595. What can I do to help lower my blood pressure? I'm a bit concerned about these numbers.
It seems like your blood pressure is slightly elevated despite taking Olmesar 20 H. To help lower your blood pressure, you can try increasing your physical activity, reducing your salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, and managing stress. In addition, you may need a change in medication dosage or a different medication. I recommend consulting your doctor to adjust your treatment plan.

I've noticed that every afternoon when I try to take a rest, my heartbeat feels really high, and the only time I seem to realize it is when I'm lying down in bed. It's becoming a bit concerning. Is it normal to experience something like this, or should I be worried about it? Could there be any specific reason for my heart to race at that time of day?
This could be a sign of a condition called paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT), where your heart suddenly beats very fast for a short period of time. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further management.
