Accepted Answer

These symptoms could be indicative of a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or a mini-stroke. It is important to seek medical attention immediately to rule out any serious underlying conditions. Medications such as aspirin or clopidogrel may be prescribed to prevent further episodes. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is recommended to monitor and manage any risk factors for stroke.

Question 4

My brother is 18 and we've discovered that he has high blood pressure readings around 14070 or sometimes 15070. We've done a bunch of tests like ECG, EKG, ultrasound, renal Doppler, TSH, echo, and urine metanephrine serum tests, and they all came bac...

Accepted Answer

It's good that your brother has been proactive in monitoring his blood pressure and leading a healthy lifestyle. Despite these measures, essential hypertension can sometimes be challenging to control. Since the morning blood pressure reading is within a normal range, it's important to continue monitoring at different times of the day. In cases where blood pressure remains elevated, the dosage of the medication may need to be adjusted further. I recommend discussing with the doctor about potentially increasing the dose of Amlong to 7.5mg or exploring other medication options such as Telma (Telmisartan) 40mg. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management techniques can also help in managing blood pressure levels. Regular follow-ups with the doctor for monitoring and adjustments are essential in managing hypertension effectively."

Question 5

I'm really worried about my health because I've been told I have a blockage in 2 of my arteries. The doctor mentioned that my condition isn't good enough for a bypass or CABG surgery. They've suggested I try medication for the first 15 days to see if...

Accepted Answer

The doctor may prescribe a combination of medications to help manage the blockage in the arteries. This may include: 1. Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) - 20mg once daily to help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages. 2. Aspirin - 75mg once daily to help prevent blood clots and improve blood flow through the arteries. 3. Clopidogrel (brand name Plavix) - 75mg once daily to further prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of complications. 4. Ramipril (brand name Altace) - 2.5mg once daily to help lower blood pressure and reduce strain on the heart. It is important to take these medications as prescribed and follow up with the doctor for further evaluation and management.

Question 6

Could I go ahead and stop taking Ciplar LA 40 since I've been on it for a year and my symptoms are getting better? My psychiatrist thinks I should stop, but I'm worried about whether that could cause any problems. What do you suggest?

Accepted Answer

It is important to follow your psychiatrist's advice when it comes to stopping medication. Ciplar LA 40 is a brand name for propranolol, which is commonly used to treat various conditions including high blood pressure, angina, and tremors. If your psychiatrist has recommended stopping Ciplar LA 40 after a year of use and your symptoms have improved, it may be safe to discontinue the medication. It is important to gradually reduce the dosage under the guidance of your psychiatrist to avoid any potential withdrawal effects. Follow your psychiatrist's instructions closely to ensure a safe and smooth transition.
