I'm worried about my pulse rate, which tends to be pretty high, between 100 and 120, and sometimes even hits 130 or more. I just got over dengue and noticed my pulse was between 90 and 110 during that time. Should I see a cardiologist right away, or is it okay to give my body a few days to rest first?

It is important to monitor your pulse rate closely, especially after recovering from dengue. A persistently high pulse rate can be a sign of an underlying issue that may need medical attention. In your case, since your pulse rate is consistently high and has even increased after recovering from dengue, it would be advisable to consult a cardiologist sooner rather than later. The cardiologist can evaluate your condition, perform any necessary tests, and recommend appropriate treatment. It is better to address any potential concerns promptly to ensure your heart health is optimal.

I've got a CRP level of 55.4 mgL, and I know that's pretty high. I have MVP and MR but no symptoms. What's going on with the CRP? Should I be worried? Any advice on what I should do next?
In the case of mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and mitral regurgitation (MR), an elevated CRP level of 55.4 mgl could be due to the presence of inflammation related to these conditions. Since you are not experiencing any symptoms, it is important to monitor your condition closely. To help manage inflammation and potentially reduce CRP levels, you can consider taking anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg twice daily after meals. Additionally, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet can also help in managing inflammation. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your MVP and MR, as they can provide personalized recommendations based on your individual health status.

My mom had an angioplasty about 36 hours ago with two stents placed because her artery was fully blocked. Now she's in the ICU and her heart rate is pretty high, like around 152 bpm, and it's averaging about 125 bpm. Plus, she's had low blood pressure a few times. Is this something we should be worried about? Could these be signs of any complications? Would really appreciate your advice.
The low blood pressure could be a result of reduced heart function or other factors. To address the high heart rate, a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol can be prescribed to help lower the heart rate. It is important to consult a cardiologist to assess her cardiac function in detail.
