Question 1

I've been noticing that my blood pressure levels fluctuate between 13090 and 14095, and they tend to be higher in the evenings. I'm currently on Telmisartan 40 mg and take it every morning. I'm a bit worried about whether I should keep the dosage the same or if it would be better to adjust it or even change the medication altogether. What do you think would be the best course of action?

Question 3

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 48 and recently started having continuous chest pain. She had a viral fever and some cough, so we initially thought it was just that, but the pain didn't go away. We went to a government hospital and the doctor ...

Accepted Answer

The chest pain in your mother could be due to various reasons, including cardiac issues. Since the government doctor recommended an ECG test, it is important to follow through with that recommendation to rule out any serious heart problems. If the private hospital has reassured you that there is no immediate cause for concern, it is still advisable to monitor the situation closely. In the meantime, to help alleviate the chest pain and cough, you can consider giving her a medication like **Paracetamol** for pain relief and **Cough syrup** for cough. However, it is crucial to follow the dosage instructions provided on the medication packaging or as advised by a healthcare professional. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please seek further medical advice.

Question 4

I'm experiencing these odd palpitations when I'm trying to sleep, but as soon as I wake up and move around a bit, they stop. I've had GERD since last September, and my recent endoscopy showed a grade 2. I've been keeping up with my health; did a TMT ...

Accepted Answer

1. AM I having any heart issues? Since grade 2 came in echo and sleeping palpitations are there. OR are these due to loose lower esophagus valve? Based on your symptoms and medical history, the palpitations you are experiencing while sleeping could be related to your grade 2 echo findings. It is important to further investigate the cause of these palpitations to rule out any underlying heart issues. I recommend you consult with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help with the palpitations. 2. Is grade 2 reversible? Grade 2 findings in an echocardiogram indicate mild abnormalities in the heart structure or function. In many cases, grade 2 abnormalities can be managed effectively with lifestyle changes and medications. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist regularly to monitor the condition and make necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. With proper management, some grade 2 abnormalities can show improvement over time.

Question 5

I'm a 29-year-old male and I've just got my blood pressure checked and it's 140100. Honestly, I dont feel any symptoms like having high blood pressure, but I thought I would look into it further. I did a lipid profile test as well, and here are the r...

Accepted Answer

Based on your blood pressure reading and lipid profile results, it is important to take steps to manage your cardiovascular health. With your age and lipid profile results, it is advisable to start medication to help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. I recommend starting a statin medication such as Atorvastatin to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels. Additionally, you can consider starting an antihypertensive medication such as Amlodipine  to help manage your blood pressure. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring of your blood pressure and cholesterol levels while on these medications. Making lifestyle changes such as adopting a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking can also greatly benefit your cardiovascular health.
