What does high blood pressure headache feel like?
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'm really worried about someone close to me whos been diagnosed with Dilated Cardiomyopathy. How long do you think they might be able to live with this condition?
The lifespan with Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) varies significantly depending on many factors, including age at diagnosis, overall health, lifestyle changes, adherence to treatment, and response to medications. With modern treatments and proper medical care, many people with DCM can live for many years or even decades after diagnosis. The 5-year survival rate has improved significantly in recent decades, especially for those who receive early treatment and follow their doctor's recommendations. Rather than focusing on general statistics, it's best to discuss your specific case with your healthcare team, as they can evaluate your particular situation, including the severity of the condition, other health factors, and your response to treatment.

I wanted to get some clarity on my ECG results. I'm a bit concerned about terms like "sinus rhythm," "short PR interval," and "slight STT abnormality." The data mentions stuff like P duration, PR interval, and QRS durationwhat do these mean for my heart health? And should I be worried about the diagnosis info or the numbers related to things like the PQRST axis? I'd appreciate any guidance on whether my report is looking good or if there are things I need to watch out for.
Based on your ECG report, your heart rate is 97bpm which is within normal range. The P duration, PR interval, and QRS duration are all within normal limits. The QT interval is slightly prolonged, but the corrected QT interval (QTc) is within normal range. The PQRST axis values are also within normal range. The RV5SV1 and RV6SV2 amplitudes are within normal limits as well. The diagnosis information indicates sinus rhythm, a short PR interval, and slight ST-T abnormality in leads II and aVF. Sinus rhythm is a normal heart rhythm, a short PR interval can be benign in some cases, and slight ST-T abnormalities may not necessarily indicate a serious issue. Overall, based on the information provided in your ECG report, it does not appear to be a concerning report for your heart. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and interpretation of the results.
