A member asked:
Would nitroglycerin help me with the pressure in my chest. me and my heart doctors are talking about it. but some time it drops real low or real high.

Possibly: While nitro based medications can help dilate vessel in the heart it can also cause lightheadedness and dizziness. So careful dosing is required and titration is a good idea.
