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've recently recovered from COVID, and I've noticed my pulse rate is usually between 55-59, but sometimes it jumps to around 60. Is this something I should be worried about? I've been on Ecosprin for the past five years after having an angiogram. Just wondering if these numbers are normal or if there's anything I should be cautious about.
A pulse rate between 60-100 beats per minute is generally considered normal. A pulse rate of 55-60 may be on the lower side, but it can still be considered normal for some individuals, especially those who are physically fit. Since you have a history of taking Ecosprin after an angiogram, it's important to note that Ecosprin (aspirin) can sometimes lower the heart rate. If you are not experiencing any other symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath, a pulse rate of 55-60 may not be concerning. However, it's always a good idea to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice and monitoring.
