Question 1

I 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?

Question 2

I'm going through my echo report and have a few questions. It mentions normal LV with normal systolic function and no segmental wall motion abnormality, which sounds good, but I'm not quite sure what all that means. Should I be concerned about anything specific? It also says theres no vegetation or LV clot, which is a relief, but could you explain what "mild TR with mild PAH" means? And is a fast heart rate during the test something to be worried about? My EF is 60%, but I'm not sure if that's normal or not. Any insights would be appreciated!

Accepted Answer

Based on the Echo Report, everything seems to be within normal limits except for the mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and mild pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). For mild TR and mild PAH, you can take Tablet Sildenafil 20mg once daily to help with the pulmonary hypertension. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

Question 3

I'm dealing with some constant pain in my chest, neck, shoulders, ears, and upper back. I've already had an ECG, ECO, and TMT done, and everything came back normal. But the pain is still there and just won't go away. What should I do about it?

I'm having this weird tingling sensation and sometimes my heart starts racing. I got an ECG and my blood pressure was checked, and both came back normal. I'm not sure what to do next or who I should reach out to. Can you guide me on this?

That could be due to anxiety, or any endocrine disorder too,visit Physician for evaluation and appropriate management.
