Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Our body has Carcadian system and this rythm dips and raises throutout the day. This system sends out PA1-1 cells which blocks the blood clots from breaking down. Another reason is when we wake up, brain floods the heart with hormones which increases the load on the heart .

I'm trying to understand more about concentric lvh as I've been dealing with high blood pressure for the last 5 years. I've been taking Telma 40 mg daily, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Could you please explain what treatments are recommended for lvh? I'm really worried about this condition and just want to make sure I'm doing everything I can to manage it properly.

I've been having these frequent palpitations lately, and my heart seems to be pounding harder than usual. I had an echo done a couple of months ago, and it came out normal. I just did an ECG a couple of days ago, and I've attached the results. Should I be worried about this?

The ECG you have attached shows sinus tachycardia, which means your heart is beating faster than normal. Since your echo two months back was normal, this may be due to other factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, or thyroid issues. I recommend you to take a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate and palpitations. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

Why does my doctor want to change my BP medication from Olmesar H 20 to T Nabicar 5Mg? My BP seems under control and my pulse rate is usually between 90-100, though it goes from 100 to 130 during the TMT. My triglycerides are at 201 but all other cholesterol and kidney tests came back normal. They've also suggested I start taking Atorva 10Mg. Can you help me understand if switching to these new meds is the right move?

Based on your doctor's recommendation, it would be advisable to switch from Olmesar H 20 to T Nabicar 5mg for better management of your blood pressure. Additionally, starting Atorva 10mg can help in lowering your triglyceride levels. It seems like a reasonable adjustment to your medication regimen to further improve your cardiovascular health.
