Dear Yuvraj Patil,Thank you for sharing your concerns. Based on the symptoms you described—chest pain, heaviness in the left hand, and a normal ECG, along with the sensation of head heaviness after taking Concor (Bisoprolol 2.5 mg)—a few important considerations need to be addressed:1. Understanding Your SymptomsChest pain & left-hand heaviness: While your ECG is normal, it’s essential to assess other potential causes, including angina, muscular strain, or anxiety-related symptoms.Heart rate of 58-60 bpm: This is on the lower side but can be normal, especially for individuals on beta-blockers like Concor.Head heaviness after medication: Beta-blockers can sometimes cause dizziness, fatigue, or a feeling of heaviness in the head due to their effect on heart rate and blood pressure.2. Key Questions for Further Evaluation:To better understand your condition, please consider the following:Is the chest pain triggered by exertion, or does it occur at rest?Does the pain improve with rest or worsen with activity?Do you have any history of high blood pressure, diabetes, or previous heart issues?Have you experienced dizziness, fainting, or extreme fatigue along with head heaviness?Any recent changes in lifestyle, stress levels, or physical activity?3. Next Steps & Recommendations:Further cardiac evaluation may be needed. If symptoms persist, additional tests, such as a stress test, echocardiogram, or Holter monitoring, may be advised to rule out subtle heart conditions.Medication review: If head heaviness is significantly affecting you, discuss with your cardiologist whether an adjustment in dosage or an alternative medication is needed.Monitor blood pressure regularly to ensure it’s not dropping too low with Concor.Lifestyle considerations: Stay hydrated, avoid sudden position changes to prevent dizziness, and maintain a healthy diet with moderate physical activity (as per medical advice).Since chest pain and left-hand heaviness should not be ignored, we strongly recommend you consult a cardiologist in person for a thorough evaluation. If symptoms worsen—such as severe chest pain, shortness of breath, or fainting—seek emergency medical care immediately.Please let us know if you need help finding a specialist in your area. Wishing you good health....
