I'm really worried about a situation I'm facing right now. Lately, I've noticed that he can't even make it to 1015 steps without getting super out of breath. But oddly enough, he's able to sleep comfortably. Should I be concerned about this imbalance, and is there something specific I should be looking into or doing for him?

I'm really worried about my mom. Her blood pressure is quite high, 170100, even though she's on medication. She's not eating well and feels really weak. Do you have any suggestions for home remedies or foods she can try? Maybe some juices that could help? I'm just trying to find anything that might make her feel better.

To help control your mother's high blood pressure (170100), consider these home remedies and dietary suggestions in conjunction with her prescribed medication: encourage her to drink plenty of water, herbal teas like hibiscus, and juices like pomegranate, beetroot, and amla; incorporate potassium-rich foods like bananas, leafy greens, and sweet potatoes; add omega-3 fatty acid sources like fatty fish, flaxseeds, and walnuts; use herbs and spices like turmeric, ginger, and cinnamon; and consider supplements like CoQ10, vitamin D, and magnesium

I've been dealing with sinus tachycardia, and my doctor suggested I try met xl 12.5 mg. I've been on it for a few days, and while my resting pulse rate has dropped a bit from 100 to 90 bpm, it still jumps to around 105-110 bpm when I'm doing normal activities. I'm wondering if it's safe to up my dose from 12.5 mg to 25 mg, and how long would be okay to stay on that higher dose?

It is not recommended to adjust the dosage of Met XL without consulting your doctor. Increasing the dose from 12.5mg to 25mg should only be done under the supervision of a healthcare professional. They will assess your condition and determine if a dosage adjustment is necessary. Please consult your doctor for proper evaluation and guidance on the dosage adjustment and duration of treatment

I'm trying to understand my echo report. It says all chamber sizes are normal, there's no regurgitation, and valve morphology is normal, with normal LV function. But it doesn't mention anything about pulmonary artery pressure. Does this mean my pulmonary pressure is normal? I'm a bit confused and would love some clarity on this.

Normal echo report..
