I've been having an abnormal heart rate for the past month, consistently between 90 and 110. I was on high blood pressure medication but stopped taking it two months ago based on my doctor's advice. They told me to keep an eye on my blood pressure, but I'm worried about whether my heart rate is something to be concerned about. Should I be seeing any changes, or is this normal after stopping the medication?

It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly, especially if you have a history of high blood pressure. Since you are experiencing an abnormal heart rate, it is crucial to manage your blood pressure effectively. You can monitor your blood pressure at home using a digital blood pressure monitor. If your blood pressure remains consistently high, your doctor may recommend restarting your high blood pressure medication. In the meantime, it is important to stay hydrated, maintain a healthy diet low in sodium, and engage in regular physical activity to help manage your blood pressure.

I've been on Olmetrack 20 for about a year now, but it's pretty expensive for me. My blood pressure is reading 13084. Do you think I could switch to Olmighty 20 since it's more affordable? I'm 28 years old, 5'3", and weigh 70 kg. Would that have any implications on my health?
Both Olmetrack 20 and Olmighty 20 contain the same active ingredient, which is Olmesartan. Olmighty 20 is a more cost-effective option for you. You can switch to Olmighty 20 with the same dosage as Olmetrack 20 to help maintain your blood pressure at a healthy level.

I'm a bit concerned about my recent echo report. It shows that I have mild tricuspid regurgitation. The doctor mentioned it can't be reversed, but is there any way to keep it from getting worse? I really want to make sure it stays stable and doesn't progress. Any advice would be appreciated.
Tricuspid regurgitation is a condition where the tricuspid valve in the heart does not close properly, causing blood to leak backwards. While it may not be possible to reverse tricuspid regurgitation completely, there are ways to manage and prevent its progression. One common approach is to manage the underlying cause, such as heart failure or pulmonary hypertension, which can help reduce the severity of the regurgitation. In terms of medication, your doctor may prescribe ACE inhibitors, diuretics, or beta-blockers to help manage symptoms and prevent further damage to the heart. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations and attend regular follow-up appointments to monitor the condition. Additionally, lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking can also help prevent the progression of tricuspid regurgitation.
