I've been checking my heart rate with my phone, and it usually reads between 90-100. I don't smoke, drink, or experience any stress, but sometimes my heart feels a bit heavy, even when I'm just resting. Is this normal? I'm 5.9 tall and weigh 75 kg.

View allI'm really worried about my dad. He just had angioplasty with stents put in last month, and now he's dealing with a heavy cold, runny nose, and watery eyes that wont quit. He's already on a bunch of meds for his coronary disease, so I'm hesitant about what to give him for relief. Do you think cetrizine is okay to help with the runny nose, or is there anything else you'd recommend that won't mess with his existing meds?
For treating the cold symptoms without interfering with his current medications, you can give your father cetirizine. The recommended dosage for cetirizine is 5-10mg once daily. This antihistamine will help relieve his runny nose and watery eyes without causing significant interactions with his coronary disease medications.

I've been feeling really off latelyI'm a 50-year-old woman, and for the past little while, it feels like my heart is skipping a beat all the time. I've got high blood pressure and thyroid issues that I'm managing, but this heart thing is worrying me a lot. I went for a check-up two days ago, but I'm still feeling uneasy. Could it be something serious, or maybe something related to my medications or conditions? What should I do next? Im feeling a bit anxious about it.
You should have your ECG test done

I'm just curious about some things regarding my health. I had a CT angio three years ago and it came back normal. Im wondering, how long are these results usually considered valid or acceptable? Also, Ive been on Lodoz 2.5 for about three months now. Before I started the medication, my blood pressure was around 120 to 130, and it's still in that range after taking the medicine. However, I've noticed my heart rate is now between 55 and 65. Is that normal, or should I be thinking about stopping the meds? By the way, I'm 5'7" and weigh 82 kg. Any advice on this would really help!
A normal CT angiography from three years ago is generally considered reliable, but its crucial to continue regular check-ups, especially if you have ongoing symptoms or risk factors for heart disease. Lodoz (which contains bisoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide) is prescribed to manage blood pressure and heart rate. Your current blood pressure of 120-130 mmHg and heart rate of 55-65 bpm are within reasonable ranges, especially if you are asymptomatic. Do not stop your medication without consulting your healthcare provider, as they can assess your overall health, review your medication needs, and decide on the best course of action. They might also suggest lifestyle changes, such as regular exercise, a healthy diet, and weight management, to further support your heart health.
