What Causes Breathing Trouble When On Lipozenes And High BP Medication?

I started exercising last week because the doctor said that it would help my blood pressure which was running 244 over 142. I have been ill for the past 4 years and was put on a lot of medication including high doses of prednizone so my weight plummeted from 110 lbs. to 189 lbs. so I was wanting to lose weight and tone up along with reducing my blood pressure, so this morning I decided to hurry up the weight loss and before I started exercising I took 2 Lipozenes and 1 MetaboUp. I just got through doing my exercises about 30 minutes ago and for the first time after doing them I m having a lot of problems breathing, swalling, talking and my it hurts when I do try to take a breath along with my heart racing really fast. Could you please tell me what s going on with me? I m scared to death right now.

Hello!

Welcome on HCM!

I carefully passed through your question and would recommend going to the ER for a careful check up.

The fact that you have difficulty breathing, chest pain, with tachycardia could be related to a cardiac arrhythmia or myocardial ischemia.

I recommend going to the ER for the above tests:

- a resting ECG and cardiac enzymes
- a chest X ray study
- some blood lab tests (complete blood count, blood electrolytes, fasting glucose).

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
