I'm a 46-year-old guy who's a bit on the heavier side. I've always been healthy, but lately, they've told me I've got hypertension. I'm not a fan of allopathic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term side effects. Do you have any natural treatment options for dealing with hypertension?

View allI'm really concerned about this weird heartbeat thing happening to me. Whenever I'm sitting, lying down, or trying to sleep, I can hear my heartbeat really strong. My pulse is usually between 60 and 90, and this has been going on for like 10 months now. I went through all these tests about 10 months ago: 5 ECGs, 3 Echoes, and 1 TMT, and they all came back normal. I'm not sure what to do about these palpitations. Could you give me some advice on how to deal with this?
Based on your symptoms and normal test results, you may be experiencing benign palpitations. To help manage palpitations, you can try using beta-blockers such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and avoiding triggers like caffeine and stress can also help reduce palpitations. If your symptoms persist or worsen, further evaluation may be necessary.

I'm dealing with high blood pressure and taking amlodipine. My doctor also gave me sertraline because I mentioned I was having anxiety attacks, but I'm not sure if that's what they really are or if they're related to my hypertension. When these episodes happen, it feels like I have a noise in my head, like static or the sound of the sea, and I get a weird sensation like I'm bouncing on springs, even when I'm just sitting. It also occurs when I'm walking. Is this connected to my medications, or should I be concerned about something else?

I'm 25 and recently had a pre-employment medical check-up where they did an ECG. The person doing the test said it was abnormal, but after doing it again, they mentioned it's not a big deal. I've never had any health issues or needed to see a doctor before, so I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is this something I should be worried about?
Having an abnormal ECG at a young age like 25 can be concerning, but it doesn't always indicate a serious problem. It's important to follow up with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can consider taking low-dose aspirin (75-100mg) daily to help reduce the risk of any potential cardiovascular issues.
