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 wondering if it's okay to take my blood pressure while I'm lying down or if I should always be in a sitting position. Does the blood pressure reading change when I'm lying down compared to when I'm sitting?
It is generally recommended to measure blood pressure while sitting, as this is the standard position for accurate readings. However, in some cases, it may be necessary to measure blood pressure while lying down, especially for patients who have difficulty sitting or standing. Blood pressure readings can vary depending on body position, with readings typically lower when lying down compared to sitting or standing.

I'm a bit concerned because my ECG and chest X-ray both came back normal, but my blood pressure is slightly high. I've been having trouble breathing at night when I'm lying down. Could this be related to stress or anxiety?
yes, it is due to anxiety issues

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.
