I'm experiencing some heart-related issues that are making me a bit anxious. Back in December 2019, I had a fast heartbeat and some pain on my left side, so I went to a cardio doctor in Patna. After running an ECG, he prescribed me clonozepam, etizola, and a beta blocker, which really helped at the time. But lately, I've been noticing this fluttering sensation in my heart, and it's making me wonder if it's something I should be worried about or if it's fine to just ignore it. Could you give me some advice on this?

I've noticed my blood pressure has been fluctuating between 130 to 170 recently, but from yesterday, it's been around 140 to 156. What's really been worrying me is that my diastolic pressure stays pretty high, always between 90 and 110. I had an ECG done yesterday and it came back normal, and my TMT from last month was also fine. I do have a history of anxiety and I'm on medication for it, but my blood pressure usually stays normal even when I'm anxious. It's just been high for the past 4-5 days and I'm not sure what's causing it. What do you think I should do? Oh, and why is my diastolic pressure always high? I've had some mild chest pain sometimes too. Can you help me figure this out?

Your fluctuating blood pressure readings and consistently high diastolic pressure could be due to a combination of factors, including anxiety and other underlying health conditions. Since your ECG and TMT reports are normal, it's a good sign that there may not be any significant heart-related issues causing your symptoms. Given your history of anxiety and the recent increase in blood pressure, it's important to manage your stress levels and continue taking your anxiety medication as prescribed. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a healthy diet low in sodium, and stress-reducing activities may help in controlling your blood pressure. To address your high diastolic pressure, your doctor may consider prescribing medications such as Amlodipine (5-10mg) or Lisinopril (10-40mg) to help lower your blood pressure and reduce the strain on your heart. It's essential to follow your doctor's recommendations closely and monitor your blood pressure regularly. If you experience chest pain or any concerning symptoms, seek immediate medical attention. It's crucial to stay in touch with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and personalized management of your blood pressure and anxiety.

I'm a 56-year-old guy, weighing 83 kg, and after 10 months of taking rosuvastatin, my LDL cholesterol is now 68 mgdL. I'm also dealing with hypertension and diabetes, taking metformin 500 mg and Ramipril 2.5 mg, as well as aspirin and metoprolol succinate 25 mg. I haven't done an angiography yet. Given that I'm on all these medications, what should my next steps be to improve my health?

Based on your medical history and current medications, it is important to address your mildly positive TMT (Treadmill Test) result and the fact that you have not undergone angiography yet. To further improve your cardiovascular health and assess the status of your coronary arteries, it would be advisable to consult with a cardiologist for a more detailed evaluation. The cardiologist may recommend undergoing a coronary angiography to visualize any blockages in your coronary arteries and determine the best course of action. In the meantime, continue with your current medications: - Rosuvastatin for cholesterol management - Aspirin for antiplatelet effects - Metoprolol succinate for blood pressure control - Ramipril for blood pressure control - Metformin for diabetes management Ensure that you are following a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, a balanced diet, and weight management. It is also essential to monitor your blood pressure, blood sugar levels, and cholesterol levels regularly. If you experience any chest pain, shortness of breath, or other concerning symptoms, seek immediate medical attention. Regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider are crucial for ongoing management and monitoring of your conditions.
