I'm 28 and have been dealing with blood pressure readings around 15090. Lately, I've noticed a bit of heart pressure and irritation in my eyes. High blood pressure runs in my family; both my grandmother and father have it. I'm starting to get worried. Do you think I should be concerned?

Your blood pressure reading of 15090 is considered high and may require medical attention. Given your family history of high blood pressure, it is important to monitor and manage your blood pressure to reduce the risk of complications. To help lower your blood pressure, you can consider taking medication such as Losartan (50mg) once daily. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and stress management techniques can also be beneficial in managing high blood pressure. For the pressure on the heart and eye irritation, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan.

I've been dealing with this chest pain and burping for a couple of days now, and I'm honestly getting a bit worried. I've tried taking 45mg of aspirin, but it's not helping at all. Do you have any idea what might be causing this pain?

I'm taking Supradyn multivitamins, and I've been having some chest pain and noticing my hair getting thinner. Do you think I should stop taking these tablets?

Consult with a healthcare provider to assess your symptoms, and consider stopping the supplement temporarily to see if the chest pain or hair thinning improves. If necessary, they can recommend a different course of action, including alternative supplements or tests.

I'm really worried about my blood pressure lately. My 2D echo showed concentric LVH with an EF of 60 and grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I've been on medication since September, taking one tablet in the morning and two at night. Initially, my BP seemed stable, but now in December, it's been fluctuating a lot. Previously, it was around 12082 to 12585 in the morning and 13585 to 13882 in the afternoon. But now, I'm seeing readings like 14090 in the morning and 14894 in the afternoon. I'm active, so what's causing these changes in winter? How should I take care of my BP during this season?

It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly, especially with your medical history of Concentric LVH and diastolic dysfunction. Considering your situation, I would recommend adding or adjusting your current medication regimen to better control your blood pressure during the winter season. You can discuss with your doctor about adding a calcium channel blocker like Amlodipine 5mg in the morning and a combination of Valsartan 80mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg in the evening. This can help in better blood pressure control throughout the day. In addition to medication, it is also important to make lifestyle modifications to help manage your blood pressure. This includes reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, managing stress, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. It is not uncommon for blood pressure to fluctuate with the change in seasons, but with the right medication and lifestyle adjustments, you can better manage your blood pressure even during the winter months. Make sure to continue monitoring your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your doctor for any further adjustments needed."
