Question 1

I'm trying to understand the normal pulmonary flow for a tall adult. Does having high pulmonary flow automatically mean someone has pulmonary artery hypertension? I'm a bit concerned and would appreciate some clarity on this.

Accepted Answer

The normal pulmonary flow in a tall adult is approximately 4-6 liters per minute. High pulmonary flow can be an indicator of pulmonary artery hypertension. If you suspect pulmonary artery hypertension, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Question 2

I've been experiencing this odd sensation, like a bubble of air in my heart beat, since last Tuesday. I don't have any pain or tiredness, but it's concerning me. Should I be worried or get it checked out? What could this be?

Accepted Answer

Feeling like air bubbles in your heartbeat could be due to palpitations. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult a doctor for proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking Tab Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help with any irregular heartbeats.

Question 3

I've been experiencing this strange feeling in my heart lately. Its like a drop or a rush of adrenaline, and it's been happening more often. When it does, it really scares me. It's almost like my heart skips a beat or slows down. What could be going on?

Question 5

Why are my blood pressure readings different between my arms? When I check my left arm, it's 12080, but my right arm shows 13080. I'm using an Omron monitor, which I believe is pretty accurate. Should I be worried about these differences?

Accepted Answer

However, if there is a consistent and significant difference in blood pressure readings between arms, it may indicate underlying health issues such as peripheral artery disease or other cardiovascular problems. It is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and monitoring. In the meantime, you can continue to monitor your blood pressure regularly and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
