I'm currently taking Teleact 40 in the morning and Cilny 10 along with Concor 5 at night. I've been feeling kind of light-headed in the mornings though. Do you think it would be better to switch things up and take the Telmisartan and Cilnidipine combo in the morning and the Concor 5 at night instead? I just want to make sure I'm managing my blood pressure in the best way possible.

Switching to Telmisartan (brand name: Telma) + Cilnidipine (brand name: Cilacar) combination in the morning can help in managing your blood pressure more effectively. You can continue taking Concor 5 at night for better control. The recommended dosage for Telmisartan + Cilnidipine combination would be as per your doctor's prescription.

View allI've recently had an echo done, and it showed grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I'm a bit concerned and wondering if this is something serious. Should I see a cardiologist about it, or is it a common finding that's usually not a big deal?
It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. Treatment may include lifestyle modifications and medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril (5-20mg once daily) or ARBs like Losartan (25-100mg once daily) to help improve heart function and symptoms. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is recommended to monitor your condition.

I'm concerned about the results from my husband's recent TMT test. He's 49 years old, and I noticed that his blood pressure was 12080 at the start but increased to 13080 afterward. Is this cause for concern, or is it normal for blood pressure to rise like that after a TMT test?

I've been experiencing these weird palpitations for the past four months whenever I lie down, and I'm really starting to worry. I had my blood pressure, thyroid levels, ECG, and an echocardiogram checked, and everything came back normal except for the ECG showing sinus tachycardia. Also, I had Covid about ten months ago. I'm not sure what I should do next. Any advice?
Given that your BP, thyroid, ECG, and echo were normal, but you are still experiencing palpitations, particularly when lying down, it is important to further investigate potential causes. Sinus tachycardia can be due to various factors, including stress, anxiety, dehydration, or even residual effects from a previous COVID-19 infection. Since you've had COVID-19, it could also be related to post-viral syndrome, which sometimes affects the heart. You should consider consulting a cardiologist for a more detailed evaluation, which may include a 24-hour Holter monitor to track your heart rate variability over a day, especially during sleep. Additionally, ensuring adequate hydration, managing stress, and avoiding stimulants like caffeine might help reduce palpitations.
