I've been really stressed about my heart health lately. I had a 2D echo done back in November, and I'm feeling super anxious about it again. I keep noticing my pulse everywhere I put my hand on my body, and it's freaking me out a bit. How long should I wait before getting another 2D echo to make sure everything's okay?

based on your symptoms and history of severe heart anxiety, it would be advisable to consult with a cardiologist for a proper evaluation. However, typically, if there are no significant changes in your symptoms, a follow-up 2D echo can be done after 1 year from your last test. In the meantime, you can consider taking medications like Propranolol 20mg twice daily to help with your heart anxiety symptoms.

View allI recently used a BP machine, and it showed that I have an irregular heartbeat. I went ahead and did an ECG. Can an ECG detect any sort of irregular heartbeat? I'm a bit concerned and hoping for some clarity.

I'm really concerned about my mom's blood pressure. It's been over 160 for the last couple of weeks. She's currently taking Telma 40 and Cilacar 10, but it doesn't seem to help. Before she switched meds, she was on Amlogard 5 mg and Metosartan 50, but her doctor stopped those since she has ILD Lungs Disease. What should we do next?
Hi, based on your mother's condition of high blood pressure and ILD, it seems like her current medication regimen may not be effectively controlling her blood pressure. I would recommend consulting with her physician to discuss adjusting her medication. In addition to Telma 40 and Cilacar 10, her doctor may consider adding a medication like Amlodipine 5 mg (brand name: Amlogard) or Metoprolol 50 mg (brand name: Metosartan) to help lower her blood pressure. It's important to closely monitor her blood pressure and make any necessary changes under the guidance of her healthcare provider.

I've had a blood pressure reading of 13585 for the last few days. Is this something I should be concerned about, even though my echo test and ECG came back normal? Is there a way to manage it without medication?
mostly your bs seems fine no need to worry
