I'm really concerned about my dad. He's 63 and has been dealing with high blood pressure for a while now, but today his blood pressure reading was something like 12255. Do you think that's unusual or something to worry about? Hes also been passing urine more often than usual, like 8 to 10 times in just 3 hours. Plus, he has high blood sugar and manages it with ayurvedic medicine. Could this all be connected somehow? Just trying to figure out if there's anything serious going on or if it's okay. Any advice would be really helpful.

Considering his symptoms and blood pressure reading, it is important to monitor his condition closely. The low diastolic blood pressure (55) may indicate inadequate blood flow to his organs. I recommend consulting his doctor to adjust his high blood pressure medication. Additionally, the frequent urination could be a sign of uncontrolled blood sugar levels. He may need a review of his ayurvedic medication or additional treatment. Regular monitoring and follow-up are essential in this situation.

View allI'm really worried because lately Ive been experiencing this weird heart fluttering sensation. Its been happening for the last 15 days whenever Im asleep. I suddenly wake up feeling unconscious, and its like I cant even express what Im going through. For a moment, I seriously feel like Im dying, but then after a few seconds, I feel okay again. It happened again last week and then today during the day when I napped. Its super scary and I dont understand whats going on or why this is happening when Im sleeping. Can you please help me figure out what this might be?
Hii, it sounds like you are experiencing episodes of heart palpitations or fluttering. This can be a concerning symptom and it's important to get evaluated by a healthcare professional. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate and reduce palpitations. It is important to follow up with a doctor for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I did ECG, echo, TMT, and a CT angiography back in November 2021, and everything turned out normal back then. But now I'm dealing with chest pain again from time to time, and I've got some acidity issues too. I'm wondering, is it necessary for me to repeat those tests? If so, how long should I wait before doing them again?
In your case, since you are experiencing chest pain again along with acidity issues, it would be advisable to consult with your doctor for further evaluation. The doctor may recommend medications to manage your acidity and chest pain symptoms. For acidity, you can take antacids like Omeprazole 20mg once a day before breakfast. For chest pain, you can take Paracetamol 500mg as needed for pain relief. If the symptoms persist or worsen, a follow-up with your doctor may be necessary for a reassessment.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I've noticed this nerve in my left palm beating, and I'm not sure if it's something dangerous. I had an ASD device closure recently, and I'm wondering if this might be related. I have a 3-year-old child, so I just want to make sure everything's okay. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
Nerve beating or throbbing in the palm of your left hand can be due to various reasons such as nerve compression, inflammation, or even stress. Since you recently had an ASD device closure, it is important to monitor this symptom closely. To help alleviate the nerve beating, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen. Additionally, applying a topical pain relief cream containing diclofenac can also help. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
