I've recently switched to Telma 40 from Inzit 4 mg just a few days ago, and while my blood pressure was normal initially, today it shot up to 135 over 105. Plus, I'm experiencing this tingling sensation in my hands and feet. I'm wondering, should I give it more time for my body to adjust to Telma? Will these side effects eventually go away, or would it be better to revert to Inzit, even though it gave me quite a few side effects too? What do you think I should do?

View allI'm really concerned because every few days, I feel my heart beating really strongly, especially when I'm lying down. It's so intense that my whole upper body shakes with each heartbeat. I've had an ECG and an echo, and both came back normal, but these episodes still happen occasionally. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations. Since your ECG and echo results came back normal, it's good to rule out any underlying heart conditions. In this case, you can try using a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) at a low dose of 25mg to help reduce the strength and frequency of your heartbeats. It is important to follow up with your doctor to discuss this option and any potential side effects.

I'm feeling a bit anxious because I've had my mitral valve replaced with a mechanical one and now I need to be on Acitron, a blood thinner, for the rest of my life. Could you tell me which foods I should be steering clear of? I'm worried about how my diet might affect my condition.
As your doctor, Id advise you to avoid foods high in vitamin K, like spinach, kale, and broccoli, as they can interfere with Acitrons effectiveness. Limit alcohol, grapefruit, and cranberry products, and always maintain a consistent diet to avoid fluctuations in your INR levels.

I've been dealing with a higher heart rate for about 45 days now, and it's really starting to make me feel nervous and cause chest pain. This actually happened to me about two years ago as well, and back then I did all the tests like ECG and 2D ECHO but they didn't find anything wrong. Now that it's happening again, I'm really concerned. Can you suggest what might be causing this or how I should treat it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or panic attacks. To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Propranolol. The usual dosage for Propranolol in such cases is 10-40mg, taken 2-3 times a day as needed to control heart rate and chest pain. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.
