I've been taking cilametxl 50mg, moxvas 0.3mg, and minipress XL 5mg every morning and night, but I've noticed that my blood pressure drops temporarily and then spikes to around 17598 or 18595 by 4 p.m. and is high again early in the morning around 6 a.m. Why does this happen, and what can I do to manage these fluctuations better?

Its important to work closely with your doctor to adjust your treatment plan, as fluctuating high blood pressure can be a serious concern over time. Regular check-ups, monitoring, and lifestyle changes will also help manage your blood pressure more effectively. Make sure to follow your doctors advice closely to achieve better blood pressure control.

View allIve been noticing that when I lie down, especially on my side, I can really feel my heartbeat, and it's hard to focus on anything else. What could be causing this? Any advice would be appreciated.
Feeling your heartbeat more prominently when lying down, especially on your side, can be due to a condition called palpitations. This can be caused by various factors such as anxiety, stress, caffeine intake, or even certain medications. To help alleviate this sensation, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and reducing caffeine consumption may also help.

I'm really struggling and could use some advice. Ive been feeling exhausted for the past three years and I'm dealing with severe shortness of breath. My mornings start with a really bad headache, and my resting heart rate is consistently high, hovering around 100 to 110, and it shoots up to 180 to 200 just by climbing a single flight of stairs. My weight is normal, so Im confused about what might be causing this. I used to be pre-hypertensive with a blood pressure of 137 over 91, and then I was on Inderal la 20 in July and August of last year. Now, my BP usually sits in the 95 over 83 or 100 over 85 range when I'm resting, which makes me wonder why my pulse pressure is so low. I was diagnosed with allergic rhinitis and allergic bronchitis in January, and Ive been taking mondeslor for the past two months, but Im not seeing any improvement. Ive done a pulmonary function test, ECG, and echo, and they all came back normal. I don't have anxiety issues and generally, I'm a calm person. It's all pretty frustrating, and its impacting my everyday life. What could be going on?
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of fatigue, dyspnea, headaches, and low pulse pressure despite being on Inderal LA 20 for hypertension. Since your PFT, ECG, and echo results are normal, it is important to consider other possible causes for your symptoms. Given your history of allergic rhinitis and allergic bronchitis, it is possible that your symptoms could be related to an underlying respiratory issue. Considering your symptoms and medical history, I would recommend discussing with your doctor the possibility of trying a different medication for your allergic conditions. You may benefit from a nasal corticosteroid spray such as Flonase (fluticasone) for allergic rhinitis and an inhaled corticosteroid like Qvar (beclomethasone) for allergic bronchitis. These medications can help reduce inflammation in your airways and improve your breathing. In addition, since you are experiencing persistent headaches, your doctor may consider prescribing a medication like Propranolol (Inderal) at a higher dose to help with both your headaches and high heart rate. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your symptoms and adjust your treatment plan as needed. Overall, it is important to continue working closely with your healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and find an appropriate treatment plan.

If my ECG and TMT tests are normal, could there still be a risk of heart issues? Also, how long is the TMT test considered valid?
nothing will happen.
