I'm experiencing breathlessness when I exert myself and my heart rate seems really high. The recent echo shows mild TR, mild PAHRVSP at 45 mmHg, and a mild MR jet area of 2.5 sqcm, with tachycardia at 121 bpm. My hemoglobin and thyroid levels are normal, but I'm a bit concerned about the mild PAH. Should I be worried about this and check in with a doctor?

Yes, mild pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) should be followed up by a doctor, especially since you are experiencing breathlessness on exertion and have a high heart rate. Treatment for PAH may include medications such as sildenafil (Revatio) or tadalafil (Adcirca) to help lower the blood pressure in the lungs. It is important to monitor and manage PAH to prevent further complications.

View allI was recently told by my general physician to start a 10-day course of Telma 40 mg because my blood pressure was quite high at 170110. I've been checking my BP in the evenings for the next few days, and it's usually between 100150 and 115155. After taking the medication for six days, my BP has come down to around 13090, and for the last couple of days, it's stabilized around 12080 in the evening. I've also cut back on salty and oily foods and started walking about 4 to 5 km, plus doing 20 minutes of Pranayam. I'm a bit concerned and curious about what else I can do. I have a BMI of 26.5. Any advice?

I've been on Telma 20 mg for about 10 days, but I haven't taken it recently. My blood pressure is now staying around 13082. Should I continue taking the medication or is it okay to stop? I'm just unsure about how to proceed.
You should continue taking Telma 20 mg to help manage your blood pressure. It is important to take your medication as prescribed to maintain a healthy blood pressure level. If you have any concerns about your medication, consult your doctor for further guidance.

I'm really concerned because my BP just isn't coming under control. The meds my doctor prescribed, Eslo At and Arkamin, are supposed to be taken twice daily, but my BP's still at 160110. Plus, the medications leave me feeling extremely weak, and I barely have any energy. Arkamin was originally prescribed three times a day, but I found I couldn't manage work when taking it that often, so I spoke with my doctor and now only take it twice a day. What should I do?
