I'm really worried because for the past four months I've been dealing with high blood pressure, fatigue, and dizziness. A month ago, I saw a physician who told me my BP was 150100 and put me on some tablets. I started with Prolomet XL 25, then added Amlong 2.5 after dinner. For a couple of weeks, things seemed better with my BP at 13080, but the dizziness and fatigue haven't gone away. I've never felt like this before. Do you think there are other medicines I should consider or any other advice you might have?

It's good that your blood pressure has improved with the medications you are currently taking. However, if you are still experiencing dizziness and fatigue, it may be necessary to adjust your medication regimen. I would recommend adding a medication like Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5mg once daily in the morning. This medication can help further control your blood pressure and reduce the dizziness and fatigue symptoms you are experiencing. Remember to consult with your physician before making any changes to your medication regimen."

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.

I've been dealing with some symptoms for a few months now, and it's starting to worry me. My heart races sometimes, I find myself short of breath, and occasionally my vision gets a bit blurry. I've also noticed a slight lack of balance and more frequent loose stools. I'm a 36-year-old female, 5'7" and 120 lbs. I try to keep active by walking a lot and exercising regularly. I quit smoking a few years back, but I consume more caffeine and sugar than I probably should. Generally, I think I eat pretty well. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? What could be causing them?
Based on your symptoms and medical history, it is important to consider the possibility of an overactive thyroid gland, also known as hyperthyroidism. The symptoms of rapid heart beat, shortness of breath, occasional blurry vision, slight lack of balance, and loose stools can be associated with this condition. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I'm having trouble getting my Telpres LN 40 prescription for my blood pressure because my doctor is unreachable and the local pharmacy doesn't have it. Could you recommend a good alternative? I'm a bit worried about not having my medication.
