I've been experiencing times when my breathing stops while I'm asleep, and my heart rate drops below 55, which sometimes makes me feel dizzy. I'm not very active, and my weight is normal. I'm wondering if these could be signs of a heart problem. Can you give me some advice on what might be happening?

I've been taking olmezest 40 for my blood pressure, but I'm feeling really fatigued. My BP is currently 14085 after stopping Aten two days ago. Do you think olmezest 40 is the best option for me, or would you suggest a different BP tablet? I'm a bit concerned about the fatigue.

I've noticed my blood pressure has been rising, it's at 140100 now. My lipid profile, thyroid, ECG, and sugar levels are all normal. I'm worried about the increasing BP though. Should I consider starting medication, or would it be better to try changing my lifestyle first? What do you suggest?

Based on your blood pressure readings, even though your other health parameters are normal, it is important to address the high blood pressure. I recommend starting medication to help lower your blood pressure. In addition to medication, it is also beneficial to make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, increasing physical activity, maintaining a healthy weight, and managing stress. These lifestyle modifications can further help in controlling your blood pressure.

I'm really worried about my mom. During her regular health checkup, they said she has a mildly positive TMT for inducible ischemia. Her report mentioned she exercised for 8 minutes, reaching a max METS level of 10, and her heart rate went from a resting 70 to a max of 164. Her blood pressure changed from 12078 to a max of 15090. They also found she has dyslipidemia with a total cholesterol of 216, HDL at 71, and LDL at 132. They advised her to take atorva and Ecospirin and to repeat the TMT after 6 months. I'm curious, is this something really serious? And does the medication usually help? Whats the next line of action after this?
