Is it normal for a 25-year-old to have swollen ankles and feet after standing for 8 or more hours? My son, who is a waiter and has had this issue since his teenage years, also experiences bouts of tachycardia and occasional chest pain. What could be causing this and should he be concerned about heart or liver issues?

I'm a 71-year-old female who took a 500 mg niacin for the first time, leading to severe flushing, burning, itching, and now feeling cold and weird in my chest with fluctuating high blood pressure. What should I do, and is this serious?

I started using a CPAP machine last Friday. It has a water system, and since I started, I wake up with heaviness in my chest, aching in my back and ribs, and a loss of energy. Last night, I turned off the water part, and I felt a little better today. Do I need to discard the use of the CPAP?

I take 500mg Methyldopa every 12 hours for HBP. Today, I took it 5 different times throughout the day and noticed my blood pressure was elevated at first, but later seemed almost low. Should I take the 500mg pill at my usual time (8:30pm)?

I am taking tenazapam for sleep, and I took ibuprofen PM. Is it okay? I am 59 years old, have an upper respiratory infection with a headache, and no other medical history.
