Ive been dealing with this dizziness, nausea, and sometimes even fainting for about 23 days. I found out that my blood pressure is hanging around 95. Ive been trying to fix it with ORS and even started munching on raisins, but the dizziness still hangs around. Im totally confused about what I should be eating or doing to make this better. Any idea why this is happening or what else I can try? I really cant stand feeling like this all the time.

I can feel my heartbeat when I'm lying down, even though my ECG came back normal. The doctor said it's anxiety, and I've been on Ciplar LA 20 for 45 days now. How long does it usually take for this medication to help with the problem? My heart rate is around 70 now.

Feeling your own heartbeat when lying down can be a common symptom of anxiety. Ciplar LA 20 is a brand name for propranolol, which is a beta-blocker used to treat anxiety and heart conditions. It is important to continue taking your medication as prescribed by your doctor. In some cases, it may take a few weeks to a few months to see the full effects of the medication. Since you have been taking Ciplar LA 20 for 45 days and your heart rate is now 70 beats per minute, it seems like the medication is helping to control your symptoms. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

I'm on Crestor 40mg and Ezetrol 10mg for my cholesterol, and here's what my latest results show: Total Cholesterol is 4.25, LDL is 2.5, HDL is 0.93, and Triglyceride is 1.82, all in mmol unit. Lately, I've been feeling really fatigued and I suspect it might be muscle pain or tiredness from the statins. I've lost some focus too. I'm thinking of reducing my statin dosage. Could you give me some advice on what to do about this?

Based on your symptoms of fatigue, muscle pain, tiredness, and difficulty focusing, it is important to discuss with your healthcare provider about potentially reducing your statin medication. It is possible that these symptoms could be related to the statins you are taking. One option to consider is switching to a different statin medication such as Atorvastatin 20mg once daily. Atorvastatin is another type of statin that may have a different side effect profile for you. However, it is crucial to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen.

I'm worried about my husband because his heart pulse rate seems pretty lowaround 53and his blood pressure is about 115 over 72. It's been like this for the past 10 to 15 years. He doesn't show any symptoms and can do physical activities without issues. Is this low blood pressure and low heart pulse rate normal, or should we be concerned? What could be causing this, and what steps should we take?

A low heart pulse rate (bradycardia) and low blood pressure can sometimes be normal for some individuals, especially if they are asymptomatic and have no underlying health conditions. However, it is important to monitor these values regularly and consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation. If there are no symptoms or issues with daily activities, treatment may not be necessary. If there are concerns about the low heart pulse rate and blood pressure, further investigations may be needed to determine the underlying cause. It is recommended to consult with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation, which may include tests such as an ECG, Holter monitor, or echocardiogram. Treatment, if necessary, will depend on the underlying cause identified during the evaluation.
