I've been averaging a BP of 13578, and my resting heart rate is 85. My BMI is 37, and I'm only 22. I'm currently on Eritel 40 mg. I'm really worried about how to get my blood pressure and heart rate down. Could you give me some advice?

Based on your symptoms:
Possible Causes
- Gas and bloating: Trapped gas can cause stomach cramps and discomfort.
- Digestive issues: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) could be contributing factors.
- Food intolerance: Lactose intolerance, gluten sensitivity, or other food intolerances might be triggering your symptoms.
- Stress and anxiety: Tension can cause stomach discomfort and cramping.
Self-Care
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help with digestion.

View allI'm dealing with blood pressure around 15090 and my heart rate seems higher than normal, sometimes going to 100. Two doctors suggested I start on Nebi 2.5mg twice daily, and while it made me feel really tired at first, that went away after two weeks. It's been five months on this medication now, but I'm noticing that my consciousness feels a bit off. I can't work or focus like I used to. What should I do about this?

I'm a bit worried after my recent health check-up. It showed something about ventricular preexcitation. I'm not really sure what that means and what I should be doing next. Can you help me understand this better and advise on what steps I should take?
In your case of ventricular preexcitation, the main concern is the risk of developing fast heart rhythms. To manage this condition, you can take medications such as Flecainide or Propafenone to help regulate your heart's rhythm. The dosage will depend on your specific condition and should be determined by a healthcare professional. Additionally, you may need to undergo further testing or procedures to assess the severity of the preexcitation and determine the best course of action. Regular follow-ups with a cardiologist are essential to monitor your condition and adjust treatment as needed.

I'm really puzzled and a bit worried about what's been going on with me lately. Every time I try to catch some sleep, I get woken up by this chest pain and a rapid heartbeat. It's been happening for over a month now. Climbing stairs also brings on this uncomfortable chest feeling. I'm around 100 kg and on met XL and telmisartan for blood pressure. I had a Stress Echocardiogram and CT angiogram recently, and both came back normal. I also attached my last two ECGs for a reference. I've been reassured that this isn't cardiac pain, but it genuinely feels like angina to me. So I'm kind of confused and not sure whats going on. Could this still be related to my heart in some way, or maybe it's something else entirely?
It's good that your recent tests have come back normal, ruling out any cardiac issues. The symptoms you are experiencing could be due to acid reflux or GERD. I recommend trying over-the-counter medication like Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for 2 weeks. Additionally, you can try raising the head of your bed and avoiding heavy meals close to bedtime. If the symptoms persist, you may need to follow up with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation.
