Im a bit worried about my heart rate. Ive noticed that when I wake up or when Im sleeping, it's usually around 80 to 90 beats per minute. But once Im up and about during the day, it jumps to over 100 and sometimes even hits 120 beats per minute. Im curious about why this is happening and what I can do to manage it. Any advice on how to handle this situation?

It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of tachycardia, which is a condition where your heart rate is consistently elevated. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan. To help manage your symptoms, you can try using a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to help regulate your heart rate. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques, maintaining a healthy diet, and staying hydrated can also help in managing your heart rate.

I've been dealing with high blood pressure for the last month, consistently around 170110, even after taking my medication. I'm really concerned about why it's not coming down and what I should do next. Could there be something else going on that I need to check?
It seems like your current medication may not be effectively controlling your blood pressure. I recommend discussing with your doctor about adjusting your medication. In addition to your current treatment, adding a medication like Amlodipine (5mg) or Lisinopril (10mg) can help lower your blood pressure. Remember to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your blood pressure levels.

I'm really worried because my diastolic blood pressure is consistently 90 or higher, even though my systolic is usually between 120 and 130. I've had a renal scan and tests for creatinine and urine protein, and everything came back normal. What could be causing this high diastolic pressure when everything else seems fine?
Given your high diastolic blood pressure (90+ mmHg) and normal systolic pressure (120-130 mmHg), along with normal renal scan, creatinine, and urine protein results, consider lifestyle modifications to manage blood pressure: increase physical activity, reduce sodium intake, follow the DASH diet, manage stress through relaxation techniques, get adequate sleep (7-8 hours), and maintain a healthy weight
