I'm a bit worried about my mom. She's been dealing with Diabetes and Hypertension for about 12 years now, and shes been taking medications to keep them in check. Since last November, she started on Ecosprin AV 7520 daily. I'm kind of concerned about if there are any side effects from taking it every day and whether its necessary to have Aspirin free intervals?

View allI'm concerned about my husband's medication for high blood pressure. He's taking Minipress XL and Eslo At, but I'm confused about whether these should be taken before or after meals. His blood pressure is usually around 160110, but after taking the meds, it drops to 12585, and then he feels weak. Is that a normal reaction?

Is there a way to manage mild TR or keep it stable over my lifetime? I'm 30 now and I'm really wondering how I can handle this situation.
For mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR), the focus is usually on managing any underlying conditions that may be causing the TR. In most cases, mild TR does not require specific treatment and can be managed by addressing the underlying cause. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. In some cases, medications such as diuretics or ACE inhibitors may be prescribed to help manage symptoms or prevent the condition from worsening. However, the specific treatment plan will depend on the underlying cause of the TR and should be determined by a healthcare professional. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is important to monitor the condition and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. If you have any concerns or notice any changes in your symptoms, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really concerned about my blood pressure. I take Telma 20 every day, but it's still high at 150100. If I eat out, it shoots up to around 170110. What can I do to bring it down to normal levels?
Increasing Height After 24 _Genetic Limitations_ 1. _Height determined by genetics_: Height is largely determined by genetics, making it challenging to significantly increase height after a certain age. 2. _Growth plates closure_: Growth plates in the bones typically close by the early 20s, limiting further growth. _Exercise and Healthy Alternatives_ 1. _Stretching and exercise_: Certain exercises, like yoga, Pilates, or stretching, can help improve posture, making you appear taller. 2. _Hanging exercises_: Hanging exercises, like pull-ups or hanging leg raises, can help stretch the spine, potentially increasing height by a small amount (0.5-1 inch). 3. _Good posture and core strength_: Maintaining good posture and core strength can also help you appear taller. _Supplements and Alternative Methods_ 1. _No proven supplements_: There are no scientifically proven supplements that can significantly increase height after 24. 2. _Avoid unproven methods_: Be cautious of unproven methods, like height-increasing pills or devices, as they may be ineffective or even harmful. _Realistic Expectations_ 1. _Small increases possible_: While it's unlikely to increase height by 2-4 inches, you may be able to achieve a small increase (0.5-1 inch) through exercise and good posture. 2. _Focus on overall health_: Prioritize overall health and wellness, rather than focusing solely on increasing height.
