I'm really worried about what to do if a family member, like my mom or dad, ever has chest pain, starts sweating a lot, or has pain in the arm or shoulder. What if they start vomiting too? I mean, in that moment, can I give them aspirin or sorbitrate? And if so, how much should I give? Could you explain how to properly administer it? I'm a bit anxious about this and not really sure about the right steps.

View allI've been wondering if cold weather can affect blood pressure. I've noticed that my blood pressure is usually around 12080 to 13084 in the summer, but during the winter, it seems to go up to 13384 and sometimes even 13587. Is that something to be concerned about or is it normal for it to fluctuate with the seasons? Would really appreciate some insight.
Yes, cold weather can affect blood pressure. In colder temperatures, blood vessels tend to constrict in order to conserve heat and maintain body temperature, which can lead to an increase in blood pressure. This is why blood pressure tends to be higher in the winter and lower in the summer. To help manage your blood pressure during the winter, you can consider taking medications like Amlodipine (5mg) or Lisinopril (10mg) as prescribed by your doctor. Additionally, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stress management techniques can also help regulate your blood pressure levels throughout the year.

I'm feeling really lightheaded and having some chest discomfort. A couple of years ago, I did some tests like ECG, ECHO, and TMT, and everything was normal except there was a comment about systolic dysfunction in the echo. My blood pressure was also fine at that time. But now, when I checked my blood pressure because of the lightheadedness, it was 10661. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be worried about the systolic dysfunction part from before?
Feeling lightheaded and experiencing chest discomfort, especially with a history of systolic dysfunction noted in your echocardiogram, warrants immediate attention. Although your previous tests were normal, new or worsening symptoms should not be ignored. Your current blood pressure of 10661 mmHg is on the lower side, which may contribute to your lightheadedness. Given your symptoms and history, it is essential to seek medical evaluation promptly to rule out any potential cardiac issues or other causes. Please visit an emergency room or contact your healthcare provider as soon as possible for a thorough assessment and appropriate management.
