I'm dealing with a high blood pressure issue of 16090. I've been taking Telmi AM, but it doesn't seem like my pressure is going down. Do you think it would be okay for me to switch to Telmi AMH? And if so, what would be the recommended dosage and how long should I be on it?

Telmi AMH can be used as an alternative medication for high blood pressure. The usual dosage for Telmi AMH is 405 mg once daily. It is important to take it regularly at the same time each day. The duration of treatment with Telmi AMH should be determined by your doctor based on your individual condition

I sometimes experience this sharp, pricking sensation in my chest, but it only lasts for a few seconds. Other times, its like a quick, intense catch pain that doesn't last longer than about 23 seconds. I've already done all my blood tests and cardiogram, and everything came back normal. Can you help me understand what's causing this pain?

u need an ECG for further evaluation of chest pain and also cardiac biomarkers essay study is indicated.

I'm wondering about something. I had an angioplasty last year and got a stent placed. Lately, I've been experiencing these weird palpitations every night as I try to sleep, but I don't actually feel them in my chest. It's strange because they're more noticeable in my jaw. My doctor prescribed Prolomet XL 25, which I've been taking for about four months now, even though I don't have high blood pressure. I'm really curious if this is something that's going to stick around forever or if there's a way to get rid of it. What's your take on this?

The palpitations you're experiencing, particularly at night and localized to your jaw, may be related to anxiety, stress, or a cardiac issue; given your history of angioplasty and stent placement, consult your cardiologist to rule out any underlying cardiac concerns, and consider adjusting your Prolomet XL 25 dosage or exploring alternative treatments, such as beta blockers or anti-anxiety medications, to alleviate symptoms.

Can a young person really die from hypertension? I'm super anxious because whenever I get anxious, my heart starts racing and I worry it might lead to a sudden cardiac arrest. Is that something I should be concerned about?

Hypertension can lead to serious health complications if left untreated, including an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage. While it is rare for a young person to die directly from hypertension, it is important to manage and control high blood pressure to prevent long-term complications. Anxiety itself does not directly cause hypertension, but it can contribute to temporary spikes in blood pressure. It is important to address and manage anxiety to prevent these spikes and reduce the risk of complications. In your case, managing anxiety may help reduce your heart palpitations and lower the risk of sudden cardiac arrest. To help manage your anxiety and reduce the risk of complications, you can consider speaking with a healthcare provider about potential treatment options. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can also help improve your overall well-being.
