View allI'm really worried about my husband. He's in the paramilitary and has been dealing with blood pressure issues for a while. He's been taking LOSAR H tablets every day, like for years. But now, his blood pressure seems to be dropping and has recently dipped below 110. He's stationed in a very high-risk area and has to do intense physical work. I'm really concerned. What should we do about this situation?
It is important to monitor his blood pressure regularly, especially since it has dropped below 110. In this situation, it is advisable to consult with a doctor to adjust the dosage of LOSAR H or consider switching to a different medication. Since he is in a high-stress environment and engaged in intensive physical work, it is crucial to ensure that his blood pressure remains within a safe range to prevent any complications. I recommend seeking medical advice promptly to address this issue and make necessary adjustments to his medication.

I've been dealing with palpitations since 2009, and although I've had some treatment, they haven't completely stoppedjust reduced in frequency. The doctor advised me to take Rivotril when they start, since they never seem to stop on their own. I'm worried about why they persist and if there's something else I could try? Could there be long-term effects if I'm taking Rivotril for so long? Any advice would be appreciated.
Since you have been experiencing palpitations since 2009 and have been advised to take rivotril when they occur, I recommend discussing with your doctor about trying beta-blockers such as Metoprolol at a low dose to help manage the palpitations more effectively. The usual starting dose for Metoprolol is 25mg once daily, which can be adjusted based on your response. Beta-blockers are commonly used to reduce the frequency and severity of palpitations by regulating the heart rate and rhythm.

I'm 23 and had some tests done recently where my ECG and ECHO came back normal, but my QRS duration was 98ms. I'm kind of worried about whether this might have any implications for my health in the future. Can you explain if this is something I should be concerned about?
QRS duration of 98ms is considered to be within normal limits for adults. It is unlikely to cause any issues in the future. No specific treatment is needed for this. Just continue to follow up with your healthcare provider for routine check-ups.
