I'm really worried because my blood pressure is reading 140100. I know that's considered high, and I'm wondering what medicine I should be taking for it. Is this something I need to be urgently concerned about? Should I see a doctor right away?

I recently got an echo report showing mild tr and trivial mr but my LVEF is 70 with normal LV function. I'm a football player with no symptoms but worried about the valve leakage. Should I be concerned about the mild tr? Does this mean I need surgery or can I continue playing sports? The report says everything else is normal but I'm anxious about the leak.

cardiologist opinion is advised.

I'm currently taking Clopitab and was recently prescribed Amlodipine or Cilnidipine. I've heard that mixing certain medications can sometimes affect how well they work. So, I'm worried if it's okay to take these together? Like, would it make Clopitab less effective? Should I be concerned about this interaction?

Yes, there is a potential interaction between clopitab and amlodipinecilnidipine. Amlodipinecilnidipine may increase the effects of clopitab, leading to an increased risk of bleeding. It is important to monitor for signs of bleeding such as easy bruising or unusual bleeding. It is advisable to use these medications together with caution and under the supervision of a healthcare provider.

I'm a bit worried because my recent ECG shows a shortened PR interval of 107 ms, and my 2D echo indicates it's 200 GM. I've been diagnosed with mild LVH and currently take Revelol XL 50 and Newtel 20. I'm curious about the risks of having a PR interval less than 120 ms. Do you think I should get more tests?

The PR interval on your ECG report being lower than 120 ms indicates a shortened PR range. This can be a sign of an underlying heart condition. Considering you have mild LVH (Left Ventricular Hypertrophy) and are currently taking Revelol XL 50 (Metoprolol) and Newtel 20 (Telmisartan), it is important to monitor your heart health closely. To address the risk of a shortened PR interval, it is advisable to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation. Additional tests such as a Holter monitor, stress test, or cardiac MRI may be recommended to assess your heart function more comprehensively. It is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider to determine the best course of action based on your individual health status.
