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 been feeling some palpitations over the past week, but didn't worry too much since my heart rate seemed okay and I was experiencing a lot of reflux. I thought they might be ectopic beats. However, today something came up that mentioned atrial flutter. Could you please take a look and confirm if that's correct? I know machines sometimes make mistakes with these readings and it's got me a bit concerned.
Atrial flutter is a type of arrhythmia characterized by a rapid and regular heart rhythm, and it can sometimes be misdiagnosed by automatic ECG readings. Given your symptoms of palpitations and the recent diagnosis, it's crucial to have this evaluated by a healthcare professional. An atrial flutter diagnosis should be confirmed by a cardiologist through a thorough review of your ECG and possibly additional tests such as a Holter monitor or an electrophysiological study. Its important not to ignore these symptoms, as atrial flutter can increase the risk of stroke and other complications. Please schedule an appointment with your cardiologist to confirm the diagnosis and discuss appropriate treatment options.
