Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

According to the research available, most studies show that headache is not a symptom of high blood pressure unless a person is in hypertensive crisis. Hypertensive crisis is a medical emergency where blood pressure is more than 180/120 mm Hg with other symptoms such as nose bleed, chest pain and breathlessness. During this episode, headache can occur which is usually on both sides, pulsating type and increases with activity.

I've been tracking my blood pressure, and back in October, it was around 180100, but now it's dropped to 13080. I've been taking Telvas 3D, and I'm wondering if I should keep using it or maybe switch to something else. Why does my blood pressure keep changing so much?

Your blood pressure has improved significantly from 180100 in October to 13080 this month while taking Telvas 3D. This variation in blood pressure can be due to various factors such as stress, diet, physical activity, and medication adherence. It's great to see that your current medication is helping to lower your blood pressure. There is no need to change your tablets if your blood pressure is well controlled with Telvas 3D. This medication is a combination of Telmisartan, Amlodipine, and Hydrochlorothiazide, which work together to help lower blood pressure. The usual dosage is one tablet once daily, but it's important to follow your doctor's recommendations regarding dosage adjustments. Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly and continue with a healthy lifestyle to maintain good blood pressure control. If you have any concerns or notice any unusual symptoms, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

My friend's mom has had two heart valve replacement surgeries, and they've found another leak in the valve. The doctors have said doing another surgery isnt an option because her body can't handle it. Are there any other ways to deal with this situation? I'm really worried and would appreciate any advice you could provide.

I've been feeling really breathless for a week now, and it got noticeably worse this morning. Plus, there's this chest pain that came along with it. I haven't noticed any other symptoms, but it's starting to worry me. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I'm sorry to hear you're feeling this way. Breathlessness and chest pain can be concerning symptoms, and its important to rule out any serious issues like a heart or lung condition. I recommend seeing a doctor as soon as possible for a thorough evaluation, including tests like an ECG or chest X-ray, to determine the cause.
