Question

I'm a bit worried because my ECG showed a small variation, and now my doctor wants me to have an ECHO done. The thing is, I'm in a remote area, and getting to the city for the ECHO will take some effort. Do you think it's okay if I wait and get the ECHO done in about 10 days, or should I try to do it sooner?

If your doctor has recommended an ECHO after observing a small variation in your ECG, it is important to follow up with the ECHO test as advised. However, if you are in a remote location and unable to travel to the city for the ECHO immediately, it should be okay to schedule the ECHO after 10 days. Make sure to keep in touch with your doctor regarding any changes in your symptoms during this period.

Question

I'm dealing with blood pressure around 15090 and my heart rate seems higher than normal, sometimes going to 100. Two doctors suggested I start on Nebi 2.5mg twice daily, and while it made me feel really tired at first, that went away after two weeks. It's been five months on this medication now, but I'm noticing that my consciousness feels a bit off. I can't work or focus like I used to. What should I do about this?

Question

I've noticed that my heart rate has been at 120 for the past three hours. I feel okay overall, just dealing with a minor cold. Could you help me understand why this is happening?
