View allCan drinking lots of water lower blood pressure?
Drinking water has role in blood pressure maintenance. When a person is dehydrated BP drops initially but later on kidneys reabsorbs more water rather than excreting in urine and vasopressin is released which constricts the blood vessels, both together can increase blood pressure. Hence, every person should drink at least 3 liters of water in a day to prevent dehydration and to maintain BP. One should also note that excess water intake should also be avoided which can put more stress on heart and cause fluid retention in the body.

I'm really worried about my mom. She had a CABG x 2 about three months ago and now she's started feeling numb all over her chest and body for about an hour.

I'm concerned about my heart rateit's usually over 100, and I get palpitations a lot. When I'm just lying in bed, my heart rate gets between 110-120, and even just climbing up one flight of stairs sends it up to 160. My thyroid levels are normal, though I do have a thyroid nodule. My haemoglobin is at 9, and my BMI is normal. I also have spondyloarthropathy and hidradenitis suppurativa, so my CRP and ESR levels are high. I've attached an ECG from my Apple Watch that I took during the palpitations. Is such a high heart rate normal?
Based on your symptoms and medical history, it seems like you may be experiencing tachycardia, which is an abnormally high heart rate. Given your palpitations, breathlessness, and elevated heart rate even with minimal exertion, it is important to further evaluate the underlying cause. Considering your conditions and symptoms, I recommend you consult a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, to help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking **Metoprolol** at a starting dose of 25mg once daily. This medication can help lower your heart rate and reduce palpitations. It is crucial to monitor your heart rate regularly and keep a record to share with your healthcare provider for a more accurate assessment and management plan.
