I'm 27 and dealing with a bit of high BP, around 14082. I'm planning to have intercourse for the first time and I'm worried about how it'll go. I consulted a sexologist who suggested taking Duralast 30 mg once a week to help increase the duration of the act. He mentioned it's safe even with my high BP, but I'm still a bit unsure about it. Is it really okay to use this with my condition?

It's understandable to have concerns, especially with your blood pressure in mind. Duralast (which typically contains dapoxetine) is generally safe for most people with high blood pressure when used as prescribed. However, it's always important to follow your doctor's advice closely and monitor your BP regularly. If you experience any issues, don't hesitate to consult your doctor again.

View allI'm trying to make sense of my Echo Report, and it's causing me a bit of concern. It mentions things like a normal LV with normal systolic function and no segmental wall motion abnormalities, which I think sounds good. However, what got my attention was the mention of mild PAH and a mild TR. I'm a bit worried if the fast heart rate during the test, which was likely due to my anxiety, might have affected the results and led to a possible misdiagnosis of PAH. I mean, I haven't really had any symptoms other than a brief episode of PVC and sometimes a slightly fast heart rate. My resting rate stays between 50-65 BPM. I'm hoping for a little clarity on whether these findings are something to be concerned about. Can fast heart rate really make a difference in diagnosis, or am I misunderstanding things here?

I'm 28 and recently got a job at a refinery. During my medical checkup, they found something called Left Anterior Hemi Block in my ECG. I'm a bit concerned since my health history has always been good. Everything else like my BP, sugar levels, eyes, ears, and chest X-rays came out normal. Should I be worried about this, or is it not that serious?
Left Anterior Hemiblock (LAH) is a conductive abnormality in the heart's electrical system, which often does not cause symptoms and is not necessarily dangerous. It can be more significant in the presence of other heart conditions, but in many cases, it's a mild and isolated finding. It's essential to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and to ensure that no underlying heart disease is contributing to the condition.

I've noticed that my blood pressure has gone up a couple of times in the last month after eating salty foods, though most days it's normal even if I've had salt. I'm overweight by around 12-14 kgs, and I'm curious if that's contributing to this issue. Like yesterday, after having salty tea, I got a bad headache at the back of my head, and when I checked my BP with our home digital machine, it read 14090. I drank some water, and it seemed to go back to normal. I'm wondering, how accurate are those home BP machines anyway? My lifestyle is pretty sedentary because of my online work. I talked to a doctor, and he said it's not the right time to start BP medications. What do you suggest?
Yes change your routine and have regular physical activity and consume healthy diet,have a regular follow up with your doctor
