I'm currently taking Inbloc 5mg twice a day since 2014 for my high BP and haven't been given an end date for it. I'm wondering if there's any way I can manage my high blood pressure without relying on medication like this forever. Also, I'm curious if I can switch to another medication like Nelovin Forte 5mg, C UDP, or Cilday 5mg instead of Inbloc. What are your thoughts?

View allSo my left atrium size is 5.6 cm, and my doctor says my heart is alright, but I'm not sure how that is possible. On top of it, I'm having trouble with dyspnea when I exert myself. Could someone help explain what's going on?
It is possible for your doctor to determine that your heart is functioning normally despite the enlarged left atrium (LA) size. However, experiencing dyspnea on exertion is a concerning symptom that should be further evaluated. In this case, you may benefit from medication such as a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25-50 mg daily) to help with your symptoms. Additionally, a diuretic like Furosemide (20-40 mg daily) may be prescribed to reduce fluid buildup and alleviate the dyspnea. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been having a headache on the right side of the back of my head lately and when I checked my blood pressure it was between 140-160 for systolic and 90-110 for diastolic over the past week. My pulse is around 80-85 and oxygen is at 99. I dont have any other medical issues but I recently moved to a new country and this started after I got here. Could this change in food and location be affecting my blood pressure? Before moving, I was drinking and eating out about three times a week for a couple of months. Could that have caused my blood pressure to spike? Im planning on seeing a cardiologist next week but would appreciate any advice you might have.
Based on the information provided, the spike in your blood pressure could be related to various factors such as stress, dietary changes, and lifestyle habits. It is possible that the change in food and location, as well as the previous indulgence in drinking and dining out frequently, may have contributed to the increase in your blood pressure. To help manage your blood pressure, it is important to make some lifestyle modifications. You can start by reducing your salt intake, eating a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, engaging in regular physical activity, and managing stress through relaxation techniques. Additionally, if your cardiologist deems it necessary, they may prescribe medication to help lower your blood pressure. It's good that you have an upcoming appointment with a cardiologist, as they will be able to provide you with a more personalized treatment plan after a thorough evaluation.

I've just had a 2D echo because I was experiencing chest pain, and I'm currently breastfeeding. Could you take a look at the results? I'm really worried about whether mild TR is something to be concerned about. Would love your insight on this situation.
Mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common finding in many people and is often not a cause for concern. However, since you are experiencing chest pain and are a breastfeeding mother, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for chest pain relief.
