Your reading of 17090 mmHg indicates that your blood pressure is quite high, and suggesting to check for 3 times a day for 3 days ,if it is persistantly high please consult your doctor Since high blood pressure may not always show obvious symptoms, regular monitoring and proactive management are key. Work closely with your healthcare provider to develop a personalized plan that fits your needs.

Question

I'm a bit worried about the change in meds. Initially, after just taking Telma AM 40, there was swelling in the feet, and the doc switched to TELMA 40 which was alright for a while, but then my blood pressure got high again. Now they've got me on TELMIKIND 40 H S and NUMLO5 for the past 8 days. But after taking them, I start feeling really weak and lethargic just a few hours later. Is this normal side effect or should I be concerned about this change?

Question

My father-in-law recently had an ECG due to some chest pain, which we thought was from acidity. To our surprise, it showed a coronary blockage. What should we do next? I'm just a bit worried about what the usual procedure is for handling something like this. Any advice would be really appreciated.

Question

I'm curious about my heart rate, which seems to be consistently between 90 and 110 beats per minute. Is this natural, or should I be concerned about any possible heart issues? I don't have any known heart problems, but I'm wondering if it's something I should get checked out just to be safe. What do you think?
