I'm a 22-year-old guy and I've been diagnosed with sinus arrhythmia. My cardiologist gave me embeta xr to take for a month and after using it, I feel about 80% better. I'm wondering if I should keep taking the medicine for another month. I read online that sinus arrhythmia might not need any treatment and could just go away as I get older. Could you give me some advice on what to do next?

Embeta XR is a brand name for Metoprolol, which is commonly used to treat various heart conditions, including arrhythmias. Since you have already experienced improvement with the medication, it would be advisable to continue taking it as prescribed by your cardiologist. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations for the full duration of the treatment to ensure the best outcome. In this case, continuing Embeta XR for another month as prescribed would be beneficial for managing your sinus arrhythmia.

View allI'm a bit concerned and confused about my blood pressure readings. I've been using an electronic BP machine at home, and I've noticed that my readings are high when I first measure it while sittingsomething like 135 to 140 over 90 to 95. But after a few minutes, it seems to drop to around 125 to 130 over 85 to 90. Does this mean I might need medication, or is this fluctuation normal?
"Based on your blood pressure readings, it seems like you have elevated blood pressure, especially when initially measured in a sitting position. It is recommended to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle modifications to help lower it. If your blood pressure consistently remains high, medication may be necessary. I would recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to discuss possible treatment options. In the meantime, you can try to reduce your blood pressure through lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, reducing salt intake, and managing stress."
