I'm really concerned about my heart, as I've had a PTCA stent placed to my right coronary artery and right internal artery. But lately, I've been experiencing some wet palpitations now and again. I have Type 2 diabetes and hypertension and I'm 56 years old. Should I be worried about these palpitations, or is this somewhat normal for someone in my situation? What should I do about it?

I've been taking Inapure 2.5 twice a day for a couple of weeks, and I've noticed my pulse rate drops to around 55-60 when I'm resting at night. Is it okay if I switch to taking Inapure 2.5 only in the mornings?

It is not recommended to change your medication regimen without consulting your doctor first. Inapure 2.5 is a brand name for the drug Indapamide, which is a diuretic used to treat high blood pressure. Changing the timing of your medication can affect its effectiveness in controlling your blood pressure throughout the day. It's important to discuss any concerns or changes in your medication routine with your healthcare provider to ensure the best possible treatment outcomes.

I'm really concerned about my mom. She's got diabetes and high BP, and her recent echocardiography test had some results that are making me anxious. Her exercise duration was 9.51 minutes, and her max heart rate hit 152 bpm, which is 88% of the target heart rate of 172 bpm. Her max BP was 16680 mmHg, and she reached a max workload of 11.14 METS. The stress test came back positive for RMI. The doctors are suggesting an angiography test. I'm really worried. Is everything okay, or should I be more concerned?

Based on the results of the stress test showing a positive for reversible myocardial ischemia (RMI) and the recommendation for an angiography test, it indicates that there may be reduced blood flow to the heart muscle during physical activity. This could be a sign of underlying coronary artery disease. To address this issue, your mother may need to undergo angiography to further evaluate the blood flow in her coronary arteries. Depending on the findings of the angiography, the doctors will be able to determine the best course of treatment, which may include medications such as aspirin, statins, and beta-blockers to manage her condition and reduce the risk of complications. It is important to follow the advice of the medical professionals and proceed with the recommended tests and treatments to ensure the best possible outcome for your mother's heart health.

I've been having some issues with fast pulse and feeling short of breath. It's weird because I don't really feel any heart pain, but I do start sweating. It seems like drinking water helps a bit, but whenever I'm fasting, these symptoms seem to get worse. I'm a bit worried and trying to figure out what could be going on. Any advice?

Seroflo rotahaler sos for breathing difficulty is advised to the patient.
