Question 1

I'm a 25-year-old female, and I'm pretty worried about my health right now. My weight is 73 kg, and my blood pressure reads 135 over 85. I've been feeling this shortness of breath, which got me to check things out with an ECG. The report mentioned I've got sinus tachycardia and an atrioventricular conduction block. I honestly don't know what all this means, and it's kind of freaking me out. How serious is this situation?

Accepted Answer

Sinus tachycardia and atrioventricular conduction block can be concerning, especially if you are experiencing symptoms like shortness of breath. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) to help control your heart rate and blood pressure. Additionally, you may need a temporary pacemaker to manage the conduction block. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for a comprehensive treatment plan.

Question 2

I'm a bit worried about the change in meds. Initially, after just taking Telma AM 40, there was swelling in the feet, and the doc switched to TELMA 40 which was alright for a while, but then my blood pressure got high again. Now they've got me on TELMIKIND 40 H S and NUMLO5 for the past 8 days. But after taking them, I start feeling really weak and lethargic just a few hours later. Is this normal side effect or should I be concerned about this change?

Accepted Answer

I had MVR surgery back in 2019 and my doctor prescribed warfarin Acitrom to maintain my PTINR around 2.5-3. I'm wondering if it's okay for me to get the covid vaccine now or if I should wait for more research to come out. If I do go ahead with it, what kind of precautions should I keep in mind?
