I'm having a bit of a concern with my blood pressure. It was usually around 135 over 95 with my automatic blood pressure machine, so I started taking Rauwolfia Q homeopathy medicine, about 8 drops twice a day. Now my BP has dropped to below normal levels, and even though I stopped the medicine three days ago, it's still low. Lately, I've been feeling dizzy and a bit shaky sometimes. Do you have any advice on what I should do?

It seems like your blood pressure is still a bit on the lower side after stopping the medicine. It's important to monitor your blood pressure regularly. For now, try staying hydrated, having small, frequent meals, and avoiding sudden position changes. If the vertigo and shakiness persist, it's best to consult your doctor for further guidance.

I'm really concerned about my mild MVP diagnosis that was confirmed by a cardiologist about 15 months ago. The cardiologist recommended an ECG every year, but I'm worried about what this means for the future, especially considering my age. My last ECG report from December 2014 mentioned mild mitral valve prolapse, but everything else seemed normal, like the other valves and chambers. There wasn't any significant regurgitation, and the ventricular systolic function was normal. Should I be worried about any long-term issues, or is there something specific I should be doing to keep an eye on this?

I'm a bit concerned about my hs-CRP levels because they came back at 1 mgL. Is that considered high for my age? I'm wondering how I can lower it. Also, I noticed my CRP level is only 0.13 mgdL, which seems good. How often should I be checking these, along with my lipid profile?

"Hs-CRP level of 1 mgl is considered to be low risk for cardiovascular disease. To reduce it further, you can consider incorporating lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, healthy diet, and stress management. In some cases, medications like Atorvastatin 10mg daily can also help lower hs-CRP levels. For your CRP level of 0.13 mgdl, it is within the normal range. To maintain this level, continue with a healthy lifestyle. As for how often to repeat these tests along with lipid profile, it is generally recommended to repeat them annually for routine monitoring, unless your doctor advises otherwise based on your individual health status."

I'm really worried about my mother-in-law. She's 65 and her blood pressure's at 18290. She's had a light headache and even vomited once. I'm wondering if these could be signs of a minor heart attack or if it's just the high blood pressure causing these issues. She's been taking Telma 20 for the high blood pressure and Vertigon D for vomiting. Could you help me understand what's going on?
