Question 1

I'm really worried because for the past four months I've been dealing with high blood pressure, fatigue, and dizziness. A month ago, I saw a physician who told me my BP was 150100 and put me on some tablets. I started with Prolomet XL 25, then added Amlong 2.5 after dinner. For a couple of weeks, things seemed better with my BP at 13080, but the dizziness and fatigue haven't gone away. I've never felt like this before. Do you think there are other medicines I should consider or any other advice you might have?

Accepted Answer

It's good that your blood pressure has improved with the medications you are currently taking. However, if you are still experiencing dizziness and fatigue, it may be necessary to adjust your medication regimen. I would recommend adding a medication like Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5mg once daily in the morning. This medication can help further control your blood pressure and reduce the dizziness and fatigue symptoms you are experiencing. Remember to consult with your physician before making any changes to your medication regimen."

Question 2

I'm really worried about this chest pain I've been having. It's been going on for about a month now, right where I can feel my heartbeat. It's been getting worse over the past few days, and it even hurts when I laugh or move my left hand. I did see a doctor when it was less painful, and they said it was muscular pain, but I'm honestly not convinced. I didn't lift anything heavy or suffer any injury, and it's just that specific spot that hurts. Could this be something more serious than muscular pain?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. Since the pain has been increasing and is now triggered by laughing or moving your left hand, it's important to take it seriously. I recommend taking a low dose of aspirin (75-100mg) as a precautionary measure to help reduce the risk of a heart attack. Additionally, you should follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and possibly consider an ECG to rule out any heart-related issues.

Question 3

I was recently told by my general physician to start a 10-day course of Telma 40 mg because my blood pressure was quite high at 170110. I've been checking my BP in the evenings for the next few days, and it's usually between 100150 and 115155. After taking the medication for six days, my BP has come down to around 13090, and for the last couple of days, it's stabilized around 12080 in the evening. I've also cut back on salty and oily foods and started walking about 4 to 5 km, plus doing 20 minutes of Pranayam. I'm a bit concerned and curious about what else I can do. I have a BMI of 26.5. Any advice?

I'm 30 and lately, I've been experiencing this weird sinking feeling in my chest, almost like a jump-sinking sensation. It just pops up randomly, any time of the day, and can last for a while. It's got me feeling uneasy, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can anyone help me figure this out?

stess,alcohol and lack of sleep ,exercisecould be acute causes of jump in the heart rate ,rythm. Few investigations like ECG ,cardiac markers and echo if symptoms persist for more than 3 weeks is advised
