My mother had pain like pins and needles in both arms from around 11 PM
to 1 AM. The pain felt like pressure spreading through her arms. She felt fine later also could move both arms normally. it was more of a tingling sensation and when i put pressure on it she could feel it go through her hand and her finger
She also mentions having "thick blood," but I'm unsure of ehat that means.
Does she need urgent medical attention?
She had no other symptoms other than this
But her right arm was hurting more than the left though
I read online and Im really concerned if I should get this checked
Dear Doctor,
I would like to seek your advice regarding my 80-year-old father.
In 2025, he was admitted to the same hospital with heavy breathing and discomfort in his lower chest and upper abdomen. He was diagnosed with acute gastritis, and we were told that his breathing difficulty could be related to the gastric problem.
In 2026, he was admitted again with almost identical symptoms, including heavy breathing and chest discomfort, but without pain or cramps in his chest, jaw or arm. This time, he was diagnosed with acute left ventricular failure (LVF).
We are confused as to why similar symptoms led to different diagnoses on these two occasions. He continues to experience these episodes, particularly after lunch and his afternoon sleep.
Could you please advise whether these recurring symptoms could be related to gastritis or acid reflux, or a cardiac condition ?
Hi, my bp 10 days ago it was 152/100, then after a week 150/98 and the same day again 140/94. I was prescribed telma 20 but I do not want to take it as it will be for life. Is there any other options. Please let me know. Thank you!!
On Friday her bp was 115/84 and pulse 80
Now her bp is 166/107
What to do... We have checked 3 times after every 5 mins... It's still showing high.
What should we do ?
