View allIm 24 and use a fitness tracker every day to monitor my sleep and activity. Ive noticed my heart rate is usually over 80 BPM, except when Im asleep. Whats the ideal BPM I should aim for, and how can I manage it better?
The ideal resting heart rate for adults is generally between 60-100 beats per minute (BPM). Since your BPM is consistently above 80, it may indicate that you have a higher resting heart rate. To help keep your heart rate in control, you can try incorporating regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, managing stress levels, and avoiding stimulants like caffeine and nicotine. If you continue to have concerns about your heart rate, you may consider consulting with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.

I'm a bit concerned about my mom's heart condition. She had an angina PCI a few years ago and had two stents placed in her LAD and RCA. After five years, her doctor stopped clopidogrel and now she's only on aspirin and atorvastatin. I'm just wondering, does this sound right to you? Should we be worried about taking her off clopidogrel? Would love some advice on this.
Clopidogrel and atorvastatin both do the same action that it control the lipid profile. So if she is taking aspirin and atorvastatin, i don't think there is a problem. It's perfect. No need to take both atorvastatin and clopidogrel.

I've just gotten results from my 2D echo showing mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy, though everything else seems normal and my ECG was fine. I'm currently taking Arbitel 40. Should I be worried about this, and is there a chance that this condition can be improved or managed effectively?
This medication helps to lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart. In addition to medication, lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet low in salt and saturated fats, regular exercise, managing stress, and avoiding smoking can also help in managing left ventricular hypertrophy. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider for monitoring and adjustments to your treatment plan is important. It is important to note that while left ventricular hypertrophy can sometimes be reversed or managed effectively with treatment and lifestyle changes, it is essential to continue working closely with your healthcare provider to monitor your condition and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
