It is important to continue taking it as prescribed by your doctor to effectively manage your blood pressure. Lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and a balanced diet can also help in managing high blood pressure. Regular monitoring and follow-up with your healthcare provider are essential to determine the long-term need for medication.

I'm experiencing some chest and arm pain, and I've been having heart palpitations lately. It's kind of weird because I can feel my heart pounding even when I'm just resting. I'm not super active, and my BMI is around 27.5. My HDL is only 34 but my blood pressure seems normal. I got an ECG done, and it showed a heart rate of 109 bpm with sinus tachycardia, but there weren't any ST T changes. The PR interval came out at 197 ms with a high QR of 86 and QTQTc between 298 and 402. Do you think I should get more tests done? What could all this mean?
Chest pain, arm pain, heart palpitations, and a high heart rate at rest with sinus tachycardia on ECG can be concerning symptoms. With a low HDL level and a BMI of 27.5, there may be underlying cardiovascular issues that need to be addressed. The PR interval of 197ms is slightly prolonged, which could indicate an atrioventricular conduction delay. Further evaluation is warranted to assess the overall cardiac function and rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend consulting a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation, which may include an echocardiogram, stress test, and possibly a Holter monitor to assess heart rhythm over a longer period. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a heart-healthy diet, and possibly medication like Atorvastatin to improve HDL levels may be beneficial in managing your cardiovascular health.

Just had CABG surgery a while ago and have been taking Beplex forte for the past month. My recent Vitamin B12 levels came back at 2000 pg/ml is that too high? Should I be concerned about this?
A vitamin B12 level of 2000 pg/mL is generally considered elevated, but may not be a cause for immediate concern, especially if you're taking Beplex forte. While there are no specific upper limits for B12 levels, and some studies suggest normal levels can range from 200 to 900 pg/mL, high levels may be associated with certain medical conditions like liver disease or leukemia. However, it's crucial to discuss this with your doctor, who can assess the reason for the elevation and determine if any further action is needed.
