Too much cold air entering the nostrils

I do not have hypertension but sometimes the blood pressure just elevated a bit - prehypertension. He said I had higher heart rate probably I have white coat syndrome and then I asked him why I had higher heart rate, is it something wrong with the heart since I also had pain in the middle of the rib at that time just right below the middle of chest bone. He immediately prescribed me antenolol and the that medicine changed the shit out of me. Right now I am feeling shit and it seems my system is out of whack. Mind and body shit does not work either. Primary doc told me to see a psychologist and said he or she could help with body and mind and But then the real shit was that he thought it was all in my mind and the psychologist thought it was anxiety disorder and she just asked me a bunch of shit questions, which were stupid and offered no help and like u said she told me try to know your body and mind. What the heck how do I know the body and mind, turning out that it was ignoring the feeling and pain and tried not to focus on it and before taking the medicine I did not have cold hands and feet and my nose was normal and I had a lot of snot and the nose always felt warm and I could felt the nasal nerve throbbing and right now everything seems to become the opposite of what they used to be.
I feel body and mind is bullshit to be honest, why not just told me to do yoga and meditate and that sounds better than what the shitty term body and mind thing.

@learningstudent-I am really sorry you have experienced this. It is a frustrating feeling. The doctor suggesting white coat syndrome was his way of telling you, you were probably just nervous. Doctors and ER doctors know that 80% of their patient visits for headache or chest pain, are stress/anxiety related visits. But no doctor is trained to write a prescription for time off work, rest, relaxation, or spending time in nature or doing something you enjoy.
-For the nose issues, you now have something new that you are focusing on. I would try the things people suggest to bring moisture back to the nose. Look into Ayurvedic medicine as they have ways to help restore moisture.
-Focus on what you can control. Total body.
-The people who you are seeing now for help, or asking advice for on here whom you are saying are offering no help. It’s not that they are offering no help. It’s help that does not come in the form of a pill. They are trying to help you address the distress.
-I would encourage you to find a practice you can believe in. You have to believe in something. Most importantly, yourself first.
Yoga/Meditation is actually all about reconnecting the brain/body. It truly is connected. But if you don’t believe in that, then it won’t help you.
-I understand your condition is frustrating. I wish you well in trying to improve and feel better.
