Can someone explain what a "Borderline ECG" means? I attached my mom's ECG report, and I'm really worried. Is this something we need to treat, or is everything okay?

Is sleeping good for high blood pressure?

People who sleep six hours or less may have steeper increases in blood pressure. If you already have high blood pressure, not sleeping well may make your blood pressure worse. It's thought that sleep helps your body control hormones needed to regulate stress and metabolism.

I'm often noticing my blood pressure is around 13090, and I've also been feeling my heartbeat more in my head and have shaky hands. I'm trying to understand why this might be happening. Should I be worried about these symptoms? I did a treadmill test last August, and it was completely normal. What do you think could be going on?

Your blood pressure of 13090 is slightly elevated, which may be causing the symptoms you are experiencing. The sensation of feeling your heartbeat in your head and shaky hands could be due to increased blood pressure. I would recommend starting with lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a healthy diet low in sodium, and stress management techniques. In terms of medication, you can consider starting with a low-dose of a medication like Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

I'm a bit worried about what my latest test results mean. It mentions sinus bradycardia with frequent PVCs, but no AV block or ischemic period. Also, my lipid, thyroid, kidney, and liver profiles all came back normal. I've been taking Cordarone 100. Could you explain what all this means for my health, and if there's anything specific I should be doing or watching out for?

SINUS bradycardia with frequent PVC can be managed with medication. Since you are already taking Cordarone 100, which contains Amiodarone, it is likely being used to treat the frequent PVCs. In addition to Cordarone, a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol can also be prescribed to help regulate the heart rate and reduce the PVCs. The dosage of Metoprolol can vary, but a common starting dose is around 25-50mg twice daily. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor the effectiveness of the treatment and adjust the dosage if needed.
