I'm really concerned because my blood pressure has been stuck at 150100 for a while, and I've been taking Cilicar T, Minipress XL, and D Veniz for the past two years. My doctor says I have essential hypertension after checking my kidneys, eyes, and everything. Should I be worried about this? Can you suggest ways to lower it? I'm also dealing with anxiety and it's kinda overwhelming... Really need some advice here.

Your blood pressure of 150100 indicates hypertension. Since you are already taking Cilicar T, Minipress XL, and D Veniz, your doctor has diagnosed you with essential hypertension. To further lower your blood pressure and manage your anxiety, you can consider adding Amlong (5mg) to your current medication regimen. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness meditation, can help reduce your anxiety levels and further improve your blood pressure control. Remember to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your blood pressure and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

I'm experiencing some heart palpitations and my pulse rate is around 90. I recently did an ECG, 2D ECO, and blood tests including the complete blood count, but everything came back normal. I'm just trying to figure out what could be causing these palpitations. Any thoughts on what might be going on?

The normal test results indicate that there may not be a serious underlying issue causing your heart palpitations. However, there are several potential reasons for experiencing heart palpitations despite normal test results. Some common causes include anxiety, stress, caffeine intake, dehydration, anemia, thyroid disorders, or certain medications. In your case, since the tests have already been done and are normal, I would recommend trying to manage stress levels, reducing caffeine intake, staying hydrated, and ensuring a balanced diet. If palpitations persist or worsen, a medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) can be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate.

I'm a 34-year-old woman and recently got some abnormal test results back, and I'm really anxious about what they could mean. My doctor ordered these tests because I've been having dizziness and feeling light-headed a lot. My blood work from six months ago was all normal and I havent had any infections recently. I've never had any heart issues before, so I'm not sure what these numbers could indicate. Can you help me understand what might be going on?

I've been having chest pains and I got a CT angio which showed myocardial bridging of my proximal LAD at 1.8 cm. My cardiologist said everythings fine and not to worry, but I still get regular chest pains, especially when walking or climbing stairs. What do you think I should do about this?

Based on your symptoms and the presence of myocardial bridging in your proximal LAD, it is important to address the ongoing chest pain you are experiencing. Since your cardiologist has already reviewed your case and deemed it not concerning, you may benefit from medication to help alleviate your symptoms. I recommend starting a calcium channel blocker such as Diltiazem (Cardizem) at a low dose initially, and gradually increasing as needed under the guidance of your doctor. Additionally, you can also consider taking a nitrate medication like Isosorbide Mononitrate (Imdur) to help with chest pain relief during physical activity. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
