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 25 and dealing with prehypertension. My blood pressure is at 14090. I've had tests done and everything seems normal, like my lipid profile, liver function, and kidney function test. I've been eating mostly green veggies and getting some exercise every morning, but I still can't seem to get my blood pressure under control. Do you think I should consider medication?
Since your blood pressure is not controlled despite lifestyle changes, medication may be necessary to help manage your pre-hypertension. I recommend starting with a low-dose of a medication like Losartan (brand name: Cozaar) 25mg once daily. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider to adjust the dosage if needed.

I'm really worried about my wife. She's been feeling some pain on the left side and backside of her heart after getting her first dose of Covaxin in September 2021, and then she noticed some blood clot patches on her body. Her heart rate also suddenly increased to around 130 at one point. We saw a general physician who mentioned something about Gilbert syndrome and suggested beta blockers, specifically Metalour X25, for life. But I'm really concerned about any side effects on her or our child, especially since she's been managing everything on her own for the last two years. Are there any alternatives in Ayurveda that might work instead of lifetime medication? Would love to hear your thoughts on this!
Metalour X-25 is a brand name for Metoprolol, which is a beta blocker commonly used to treat various heart conditions, including high blood pressure and certain types of heart disease. In the case of Gilbert syndrome, beta blockers like Metoprolol can help manage symptoms such as rapid heart rate. The dosage of Metoprolol can vary depending on the individual's condition, but a common starting dose is around 25-50mg once daily. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by the prescribing physician. Beta blockers, including Metoprolol, are generally well-tolerated, but like any medication, they can have side effects. Common side effects may include fatigue, dizziness, and cold hands or feet. It is important to monitor for any unusual symptoms and report them to the healthcare provider. As for alternatives in Ayurveda, it is always recommended to consult with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized recommendations. Ayurveda offers a holistic approach to health and may have alternative treatments or lifestyle recommendations to support heart health. Some Ayurvedic herbs and practices that are commonly used to support heart health include Arjuna, Ashwagandha, and stress-reducing techniques like yoga and meditation. Ultimately, the decision to take Metoprolol or explore Ayurvedic alternatives should be made in consultation with healthcare providers who are familiar with the individual's medical history and current health status.
