I'm really worried about my husband. He's been waking up in the middle of the night sweating and struggling to breathe, and this has happened twice in just three days. We checked his blood pressure both times he woke up, and it was 148110 with a pulse of 75 the first time, and 140100 with a pulse of 85 the second time. He usually takes TeldayH every day for his high blood pressure, which generally keeps it under control. His blood sugar levels were also normal when we checked them yesterday, and his ECG was fine in January. He did have a gout attack around the same time, and his uric acid levels were 8.7 then, and he's also dealing with high cholesterol. Right now, he's on Febuxostat and Jupiros. I'm just trying to figure out why he's having these night sweats and breathing problems. Could it be related to his medication or something else?

View allI'm a bit concerned after my recent tests. My Echo and TMT came back normal when it comes to signs of a heart attack, but my cardiologist mentioned that my heart rate recovery was really slow after stopping the treadmill. This has me worried because I had some chest discomfort the day before the TMT. They prescribed me Ecospirin AV 7520 and Corbis 5 for two weeks and want me to come back after that. Should I be worried about these results? What could this slow heart rate recovery mean for me?
The slow heart rate recovery after exercise can be a concern and may indicate a potential issue with your cardiovascular health. The medications prescribed to you, Ecospirin AV 7520 and Corbis 5, are commonly used to manage heart conditions. You should take Ecospirin AV 7520 once daily and Corbis 5 as prescribed by your doctor. These medications can help improve blood flow and regulate your heart rate. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions carefully and attend your follow-up appointment as scheduled.

I'm really worried about my dad's recent angiography test results. It showed he has a 100% blockage in two arteries and 95% in a third artery, with just one vein working properly. I'm trying to understand if he should consider bypass surgery or angioplasty. Which option is generally more effective for extending lifespan?
For blockages of 100% in two arteries and 95% in the third artery, bypass surgery would be more effective in this case. Bypass surgery involves creating new pathways for blood to flow to the heart muscle, bypassing the blocked arteries. This can help improve blood flow to the heart and relieve symptoms such as chest pain. It is also known to extend lifespan and reduce the risk of future heart attacks compared to angioplasty. The patient should consult with a cardiac surgeon to discuss the best treatment option and further details regarding the bypass surgery procedure and post-operative care.

I'm really worried because my blood pressure is at an all-time high, showing readings like 152105, and my heart rate is 101. I'm not feeling well at all. Could this be something serious, and what should I do about it?
"I recommend you take Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily for high blood pressure. For your elevated heart rate, you can take Metoprolol (brand name Lopressor) 25mg twice daily. Make sure to monitor your blood pressure and heart rate regularly."
