I'm a bit concerned because I just started taking Telma 20mg and today I've been feeling dizzy and really tired. Is that a normal reaction? I checked my blood pressure and it's 14092. What should I do about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Starting on Telma (telmisartan) 20mg can sometimes cause side effects like dizziness and fatigue, especially when your body is adjusting to the medication. These symptoms can be more noticeable when standing up quickly or during the initial days of treatment. Your current blood pressure reading of 14092 mmHg indicates that it is still elevated. Its important to monitor your symptoms and blood pressure closely. If the dizziness and fatigue persist or worsen, please contact your healthcare provider to discuss your symptoms and possibly adjust your treatment plan.

View allI've got a CRP level of 55.4 mgL, and I know that's pretty high. I have MVP and MR but no symptoms. What's going on with the CRP? Should I be worried? Any advice on what I should do next?
In the case of mitral valve prolapse (MVP) and mitral regurgitation (MR), an elevated CRP level of 55.4 mgl could be due to the presence of inflammation related to these conditions. Since you are not experiencing any symptoms, it is important to monitor your condition closely. To help manage inflammation and potentially reduce CRP levels, you can consider taking anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg twice daily after meals. Additionally, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet can also help in managing inflammation. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your MVP and MR, as they can provide personalized recommendations based on your individual health status.

I'm taking Navicard 5 mg regularly, as prescribed by my doctor. But recently, I've been having some mild chest pain, so I saw a cardiologist who prescribed Angizem CD 90 for my morning dose.

I'm a bit worried because I got an abnormal ECG report. It mentioned something about "RS inversion" in the area between V1 and V2. Can you help me understand what this means? Should I be concerned about this finding on my ECG?
In the ECG report, the findings indicate: 1. Sinus rhythm 2. RS inversion in the area between V1 and V2 The RS inversion in the anterior leads V1 and V2 could be indicative of various conditions such as myocardial infarction, myocardial ischemia, or other cardiac issues. It is important to further evaluate this finding with additional tests and consultations with a cardiologist for proper management. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
