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.

View allI've been taking 1.25mg of Concor Cor since January 25, 2022, but I want to stop. It's only for panic attacks, not for any heart issues. I've got other meds for panic attacks now. How can I safely quit the Concor Cor?

I've been having chest pain when I walk or go up stairs, so I got a CT angiography done. The report shows I have myocardial bridging of the proximal LAD, about 1.8 cm long. The doctor said not to worry and that no treatment is needed, but the pain on my left side isn't going away. Can you help me understand what this all means and what I should do next?
Since you are experiencing persistent chest pain despite the reassurance from your doctor, it may be helpful to consider medication to help manage your symptoms. You can try taking a calcium channel blocker such as Diltiazem (Cardizem) at a low dose initially, under the guidance of your doctor. The usual starting dose for Diltiazem is 120 mg to 180 mg per day, taken in divided doses. This medication can help relax the smooth muscle in the walls of your coronary arteries and improve blood flow to the heart muscle, potentially reducing chest pain associated with your condition. However, please consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

I'm dealing with some pretty bad acid reflux after eating heavy masala foods. I've got this weird dhada sensation in my chest, so I got an ECG done. The results said something about a left axis and poor R progression. Is this something normal, or should I be worried? Would love some advice on what to do next!
It sounds like you may be experiencing acid reflux symptoms and chest discomfort. The ECG findings of Left axis poor R progression may indicate certain heart conditions, but it is important to correlate these findings with your symptoms and overall health status. To address your acid reflux symptoms, you can try taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast for a few weeks. Additionally, you can take Gaviscon (antacid) as needed for immediate relief. It is also recommended to avoid spicy and heavy meals, eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down immediately after eating. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
