I'm really confused about what the normal blood pressure value is supposed to be. I've read online that it's 12080, but then I've also heard from doctors that 14090 is normal, and some even say up to 160100 isn't a problem. I'm really anxious about this and just want to know what the actual normal range for blood pressure is.

View allI'm dealing with mild concentric LVH and my LVEF is at 65. I also have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction and mild to moderate MR, with an RVSP of 44 mm Hg. I find myself experiencing chest pain occasionally. What should I do about this, and is there something specific I should be concerned about?
Based on your condition, it is important to manage your chest pain and address the underlying heart issues. You may benefit from medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril 5-20mg once daily to help with your heart function and blood pressure control. Additionally, a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25-100mg once or twice daily can also be prescribed to improve heart function and reduce chest pain. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly for monitoring and further management.

I've noticed that my heart rate has been at 120 for the past three hours. I feel okay overall, just dealing with a minor cold. Could you help me understand why this is happening?
A heart rate of 120+ beats per minute can be elevated due to various reasons, including stress, anxiety, fever, dehydration, or certain medications. Since you mentioned having a minor cold, it is possible that your elevated heart rate is a response to the infection. To help lower your heart rate, you can try taking over-the-counter medication like **Acetaminophen** for fever and discomfort associated with the cold. Additionally, ensure you stay well-hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to seek medical attention for further evaluation.

I took a taxim o tablet for this swollen lump on my forearm because my doctor suggested it. But as soon as I took it, my heart started racing, and my heart rate shot up to around 120. I'm feeling chest pressure from all this bloating. Why is this happening? I got scared and stopped taking it. What should I do now?
It's possible that you experienced an adverse reaction to Taxim O (cefixime), which is an antibiotic. While antibiotics like cefixime are generally safe, they can occasionally cause side effects in some individuals. The racing heart rate (tachycardia) and chest pressure you experienced may be related to an allergic reaction, anxiety, or even a gastrointestinal side effect such as bloating. It is crucial to report these symptoms to your healthcare provider immediately, as they may need to prescribe an alternative treatment for your swollen lump and address your current symptoms. In the meantime, avoid taking any more of the medication and seek medical attention to ensure your symptoms are properly managed.
