Hey, a few days back I had a weird situation where I started feeling really anxious, my heart rate shot up to 150, and I had palpitations. I took Ciplar LA 20 and Dolo 650, and luckily my pulse eventually dropped back to 75. I'm trying to figure out if this was Supraventricular Tachycardia or just something normal? This happened to me once about three months ago, and it got better after taking Dolo 650 and some anxiety meds. I even had an ECG done in May, and that came out perfect. Do you think these two episodes could be Supraventricular Tachycardia, or are they just normal?

Based on your description, it is possible that you experienced episodes of Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) given the sudden onset of palpitations, anxiety feeling, and rapid rise in pulse rate to 150 beats per minute. The fact that your symptoms improved after taking Ciplar LA 20 (propranolol) which is a beta-blocker commonly used to manage SVT supports this possibility. Additionally, the normal ECG results in May suggest that there may not be any underlying structural heart issues causing the SVT. For the management of SVT episodes, you can continue to use Ciplar LA 20 as needed to help control your heart rate. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to discuss long-term management options, such as potential medication adjustments or other interventions like ablation therapy. In the meantime, it is advisable to avoid triggers that may precipitate SVT episodes, such as caffeine, stress, or certain medications. Keeping a record of your symptoms and discussing them with your healthcare provider can also help in monitoring your condition effectively.

I'm a bit worried about the change in meds. Initially, after just taking Telma AM 40, there was swelling in the feet, and the doc switched to TELMA 40 which was alright for a while, but then my blood pressure got high again. Now they've got me on TELMIKIND 40 H S and NUMLO5 for the past 8 days. But after taking them, I start feeling really weak and lethargic just a few hours later. Is this normal side effect or should I be concerned about this change?

I'm really worried about the angiography report that showed blockages in all three arteries and their branches, with numbers like 100, 100, and 95. It's causing lung congestion and I'm scared about what this means for health. What options are available for treatment?
It sounds like you're dealing with severe coronary artery blockage in all three major arteries, with the blockage percentages being quite high. Additionally, the congestion is causing fluid buildup in the lungs, which can make breathing difficult. It's essential to follow your doctor's advice for the best treatment approach.
