Question

I'm currently taking Olmintrio 40 for high blood pressure. My recent readings are around 12075. Do you think I should keep taking my meds, or maybe it's okay to stop for now?

It is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication. Based on your current blood pressure reading, your doctor may decide to adjust your dosage or even consider stopping the medication. Follow your doctor's advice regarding whether to continue taking the tablets or not.

Question

I'm really concerned about my heart rate because it's usually around 100 or more whether I'm just sitting, walking, or doing anything else. I've been using my Fitbit to track it, and I also have an Omron BP machine at home that often shows it going over 100, sometimes even hitting 120. I did see a cardiologist who said it was nothing, but I'm still worried. Can you help me figure out what might be going on or if there's anything I should do?

Question

I'm 17, and I'm noticing that my heart is beating really hard and fast. When I'm lying down to sleep, it even feels like there's a vibration with my heartbeat. Sometimes it feels like it might just stop. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing these sensations?

Question

I'm 30 years old and started having chest pain and tingling back in December 2016. I went through all the tests like ECG, 2D echo, and a stress test, and everything came back negative. They told me it's anxiety, so I've been on Depranex and Betacap. Lately, I've been getting this burning sensation that starts from my stomach or chest. It also feels like I'm being pricked on the left side of my chest and back. I'm really not sure what's going on with me, and it's making me worried. Could you give me some advice on what might be happening?
