I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. Normally, it sits around 12090, but every now and then, it'll spike to about 130100, or drop to 10080. It used to be at 10070. I'm trying to find a natural solution and wondering if Ayurveda could help manage this, as I really don't want to be on medication forever. I lead a pretty active lifestyle, and I'm really careful with my diet and regular exercise. What do you think? Is there an alternative approach I could try?

View allI'm looking at my ECG report which mentions I've got LVH and arrhythmia. I've been feeling quite tired whenever I climb stairs. Could you help me understand what this means?
Based on the information you provided, it seems like you have left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and arrhythmia as mentioned in your ECG report. These conditions can indeed cause symptoms such as fatigue, especially during physical exertion like climbing stairs. To manage these conditions, you may be prescribed medications such as Atenolol (50mg) for arrhythmia and Lisinopril (10mg) for LVH. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my father. He's 65 and has been dealing with diabetes for about 7 years now. Usually, his normal blood pressure is around 11075, but today I checked and it was 17080. His pulse rate is 90 and his oxygen saturation is 98. Does this seem normal or should I be concerned about these numbers? What should I do next?
Given your symptoms, I recommend consulting an: 1. *ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) Specialist*: As dizziness can be related to inner ear issues, such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). 2. *Neurologist*: To rule out any underlying neurological conditions that might be causing your dizziness. 3. *General Physician*: If you're unsure about which specialist to consult, start with a general physician who can evaluate your overall health and refer you to a specialist if needed. Before consulting a doctor: 1. *Keep a symptom journal*: Track when the dizziness occurs, how long it lasts, and any triggers you notice. 2. *Monitor your blood pressure*: Ensure your blood pressure is within a healthy range. 3. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. During the consultation: 1. *Share your medical history*: Inform your doctor about your previous experience with dizziness 3 years ago. 2. *Describe your symptoms*: Provide detailed information about your dizziness, including when it occurs, how long it lasts, and any triggers you've noticed.

I've been managing my high BP with Olmesar H 20 and it's been under control. But recently, my triglycerides level went up to 201. My doctor suggested I start taking T Atorva 10MG for three months. I'm a bit worried and curiouswill taking T Atorva become like the BP meds where I have to rely on it for life?
Atorva (atorvastatin) is prescribed to manage high triglycerides and other cholesterol levels and is often used for long-term cardiovascular risk reduction. While taking it for three months can help lower triglycerides, whether you need to continue it long-term depends on your subsequent cholesterol levels and overall cardiovascular risk profile. It's essential to follow up with your healthcare provider after the initial three months to reassess your lipid levels and determine the need for ongoing treatment. Lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight management are also crucial in managing triglycerides. Discuss with your doctor about the long-term plan and any concerns you have.
