I'm taking some meds for high blood pressure, like METOLAR XR and TELMA 20, and I have a TMT test for a pre-employment check-up coming up. I'm a bit worried because I really can't afford to fail this test. Do I need to stop taking these meds on the day of the test, or will they affect the results? Can you let me know what I should do?

You can continue taking METOLAR XR and TELMA 20 on the day of your TMT test. These medications are commonly used for high blood pressure and should not significantly affect the results of the test. It is important to follow your regular dosage schedule. Good luck with your pre-employment medical test!"

View allI was recently diagnosed with mild AR 3rd valve and I'm a bit worried how serious is this condition? Is surgery the only option or can it be managed with medications? Also, I have allergic bronchitis that flares up during allergy season wheezing and trouble breathing from pollen, dust, and pollution. Can this be completely cured or is it something I'll have to manage long-term?
Mild aortic regurgitation (AR) with a 3rd valve can often be managed with monitoring and medication, and surgery is not always the first or only option. Allergic bronchitis is generally managed long-term, with treatments aimed at controlling symptoms and minimizing exposure to allergens

I'm curious about my pulse after exercising. I did a brisk walk for about 3 kilometers, which took me around 30 minutes, and when I checked my pulse rate right after, it was between 130 and 135. Is this considered normal? My resting pulse usually sits between 70 and 80. Should I be concerned?
A pulse rate of 130-135 after brisk walking is within a normal range, especially considering your resting pulse is 70-80. As long as you do not experience any symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, this pulse rate is considered normal for your level of physical activity.
