I'm trying to understand the seriousness of some heart blockages that were reported. Can you explain what level of concern is typical for this kind of issue? Is there any immediate action I should be thinking about?

I'm experiencing arm pain that started in my left arm, but now it's also in my right arm. I've got this weird center chest pain too. I did an ECG, echo, and some blood tests, including a thyroid test about four days ago, and everything came back normal. The doctor mentioned it might be anxiety because my heart rate was really highlike 130 bpm during the ECG and my blood pressure was 15080. I've had this fear of heart issues for months, and now the symptoms seem to have gotten worse. They gave me Betanol TR 40 to try and help. Sometimes the arm pain gets really bad, but then it goes away and comes back. It feels like pins and needles, maybe like cramps. What could this be?

It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of anxiety and cardiophobia, which can manifest as arm pain and chest discomfort. The medication prescribed to you, Betanol TR 40, is a brand name for Propranolol. This medication can help with managing symptoms of anxiety and can also help with reducing heart rate and blood pressure. The usual dosage for Propranolol in anxiety is 20-40mg taken 2-3 times a day. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and frequency of taking the medication. If you experience worsening symptoms or have any concerns, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm 28 and have been dealing with blood pressure readings around 15090. Lately, I've noticed a bit of heart pressure and irritation in my eyes. High blood pressure runs in my family; both my grandmother and father have it. I'm starting to get worried. Do you think I should be concerned?

Your blood pressure reading of 15090 is considered high and may require medical attention. Given your family history of high blood pressure, it is important to monitor and manage your blood pressure to reduce the risk of complications. To help lower your blood pressure, you can consider taking medication such as Losartan (50mg) once daily. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and stress management techniques can also be beneficial in managing high blood pressure. For the pressure on the heart and eye irritation, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan.

I'm trying to understand more about concentric lvh as I've been dealing with high blood pressure for the last 5 years. I've been taking Telma 40 mg daily, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Could you please explain what treatments are recommended for lvh? I'm really worried about this condition and just want to make sure I'm doing everything I can to manage it properly.
