I was recently told by my general physician to start a 10-day course of Telma 40 mg because my blood pressure was quite high at 170110. I've been checking my BP in the evenings for the next few days, and it's usually between 100150 and 115155. After taking the medication for six days, my BP has come down to around 13090, and for the last couple of days, it's stabilized around 12080 in the evening. I've also cut back on salty and oily foods and started walking about 4 to 5 km, plus doing 20 minutes of Pranayam. I'm a bit concerned and curious about what else I can do. I have a BMI of 26.5. Any advice?

View allI've been having some issues lately. I'm a 33-year-old guy, and when I'm just resting, my heart sometimes races up to 120-130 beats per minute. I had an ECG, and they said it's sinus tachycardia, but my echocardiogram came back normal. Even though tests seem alright, I still get this fluttery feeling when my pulse is high. What could this be? Can you give me some advice on what might be going on?
Based on your symptoms of palpitations and feeling flurried when your pulse is high, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or panic attacks. To help manage these symptoms, I recommend taking Propranolol (Inderal) 10-40mg as needed to help control your heart rate and reduce the feelings of flurriness. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial in managing your symptoms.

I'm trying to understand my recent ECG results from a health check-up. The impression mentioned something called 803 sinus arrhythmia. Can someone explain what this means? Is it something I should be worried about? And if it is a problem, what steps should I take to address it?

I'm feeling a tickling sensation in my chest and what's kind of like fluttering, which makes me anxious and sad. It's also strange because I get this mild headache only at night. Any idea what might be going on?
To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter medication such as paracetamol for the headache. Additionally, you can consider using anti-anxiety medication such as lorazepam at a low dose to help with the feelings of anxiety and sadness. It is important to consult with a doctor before starting any new medication.
