Question 1

I'm really concerned because my blood pressure has been stuck at 150100 for a while, and I've been taking Cilicar T, Minipress XL, and D Veniz for the past two years. My doctor says I have essential hypertension after checking my kidneys, eyes, and everything. Should I be worried about this? Can you suggest ways to lower it? I'm also dealing with anxiety and it's kinda overwhelming... Really need some advice here.

Accepted Answer

Your blood pressure of 150100 indicates hypertension. Since you are already taking Cilicar T, Minipress XL, and D Veniz, your doctor has diagnosed you with essential hypertension. To further lower your blood pressure and manage your anxiety, you can consider adding Amlong (5mg) to your current medication regimen. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness meditation, can help reduce your anxiety levels and further improve your blood pressure control. Remember to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your blood pressure and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

Question 2

I've been experiencing this really weird thing where I suddenly get dizzy and faint after using the bathroom. I woke up this last time with a hurt nose, and it's actually the third time it's happened over the past five years. The first two times, I had a fever, so I figured that was the cause, but this time I'm not sick. I've seen a bunch of doctors, but no one seems to figure it out. They keep asking if I have issues with my BP or if I'm feeling hot. I dont have any of these problems normally, so Im really puzzled. Could there be something else going on that were missing?

Accepted Answer

This episode of dizziness and fainting could be related to a condition called vasovagal syncope, which can be triggered by various factors such as urination. To help prevent these episodes, you can try increasing your fluid and salt intake to maintain blood pressure. Additionally, you can use medications like Fludrocortisone (brand name Florinef) at a dose of 0.1-0.2 mg per day to help increase blood volume and prevent episodes of fainting. It is important to discuss this with your doctor to see if this medication is suitable for you.

Question 3

I'm feeling really anxious because I experienced this sharp pain in my left chest that lasted for about 5-10 seconds. Along with that, there's this heaviness in my chest that's been bothering me. I just got my ECG results, and it mentioned an 800 sinus rhythm and a 401 short PR interval. Could you help me understand what these results might mean? Should I be worried about this?

Accepted Answer

While the sinus rhythm on your ECG is normal, the short PR interval requires further investigation to determine the underlying cause. The symptoms of chest pain and heaviness are concerning and should be evaluated by a healthcare provider right away. Please do not delay in seeking medical attention to ensure that any potential issues, including heart-related conditions, are addressed promptly.

I'm a 21-year-old guy and I've been taking Concor Cor 2.5 mg every day for the past couple of months to help with chest pain, not for high blood pressure. I'm feeling better now and was wondering how I can stop taking it safely without causing any problems? I'd really appreciate your advice!
