I'm wondering if having a blood pressure reading of 12060 is considered normal or if it might be something I should be concerned about. I've been leading a pretty healthy lifestyle, but should I think about seeing a doctor?

Your blood pressure reading of 12060 is considered normal and falls within the healthy range. Since you have a healthy lifestyle, there is no immediate cause for concern. However, it's always a good idea to monitor your blood pressure regularly. If you experience any symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, or chest pain, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional.

I've noticed my heart rate drops to around 41-45 when I'm sleeping, and I'm a bit worried about it. I'm currently taking Ivabradine, 5mg twice a day. During the day, my heart rate is generally between 85-90, and it goes up to 105-110 while I'm walking. I started on Ivabradine because my heart rate would hit 150 with just minimal exertion. Is it normal for my heart rate to drop like that while I'm asleep, or should I be concerned?

A heart rate dropping to 41-45 while sleeping can be concerning, especially if you are already on Ivabradine for high heart rate during the day. Since Ivabradine is a medication that helps lower heart rate, it is important to monitor your heart rate closely. In your case, since your heart rate during the day is around 85-90 and 105-110 while walking after taking Ivabradine, it seems like the medication is working to lower your heart rate effectively. However, a heart rate dropping significantly during sleep may warrant further evaluation. I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider to determine if any adjustments to your medication dosage or timing are needed. It's important to ensure that your heart rate remains within a safe range even during sleep.

I've been having some mild pain in the mid and left upper chest when I breathe heavily, and it changes depending on how I'm sitting. It seems to happen when I switch from inhaling to exhaling. I've had an ECG and Chest X-ray, and both came back normal. Could this be something to worry about?

I'm a bit worried because I noticed that whenever taking Ecosprin 75mg, there's sometimes a bleeding problem. Could this be related to certain foods I'm eating? I used to take Colsprin 100mg, but it's discontinued now, and the same thing happened with ASA 50mg. Are there any alternatives you could recommend?
