I've been dealing with headaches last week that lasted for two days, and my BP was at 240160. I got an MRIMRA done, and luckily everything was normal. Started taking Cilacar 10mg once a day, and from the next day, my BP seemed under control. But today, it suddenly spiked to 180120 this evening. I can only get in to see a doctor tomorrow. Should I consider taking half of the Cilacar 10mg now to help lower it?

I'm really worried about my mom. Lately, she's been feeling these vibrations in her heart every now and then. It sounds strange, but she tells me it happens occasionally. On top of that, she's also been having leg pain for the past few days. Is this something to be concerned about? She's currently on medications like Ozone cynocal, lcOsil, and Ozone ozocal. Could these symptoms be related to the meds, or is it something else going on? Would really appreciate some guidance.

Your mother's symptoms of occasional heart vibrations, also known as palpitations, and leg pain, could indicate an underlying condition such as arrhythmia, anemia, or poor circulation, and while the medications she's taking, such as Ozone Cynocal LC (iron supplements), Osil Ozone ( omega-3 fatty acids), and Ozocal (calcium supplements), may be helpful, it's essential to consult her doctor urgently to rule out any serious cardiac or vascular issues and adjust her treatment plan accordingly

I'm trying to understand my echo report and I'm a bit concerned. It says my cardiac size is normal with some terms like Lvdd being 5.4 cm, La at 3.8 cm, and mild lvh. Then it mentions good lv systolic function and an EF range of 55 to 60. Plus, normal right systolic function and no abnormal wall motion. Should I be worried about anything here? Just looking for some clarity on what all this means for my heart health.

Your echo report indicates that you have Cardiac Hypertrophy with normal left ventricular size (LVDD 5.4 cm) and mild left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Your left atrium is also within normal size (LA 3.8 cm). The report shows good left ventricular systolic function with an ejection fraction (EF) of 55-60%. Additionally, your right ventricular systolic function is normal with no abnormal wall motion. Based on the information provided, you may consider medications such as: - ACE Inhibitors like Lisinopril 10mg once daily to help reduce the workload on the heart and manage blood pressure. - Beta-blockers like Metoprolol 25mg twice daily to help lower blood pressure and reduce the heart's workload. - Diuretics like Furosemide 40mg once daily to help reduce fluid buildup in the body and manage symptoms of heart failure. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
