I've been dealing with anxiety-induced tachycardia and my resting heart rate used to be around 100-130 with a blood pressure of 130-14070-80 for the past year. My doctor prescribed Ciplar LA 40 mg and Amitone 10 mg, which I've been taking for the past four days. I've noticed my resting heart rate has dropped to between 70-85 and my blood pressure is now around 11080. There's another option, Metoprolol 25 mg, and I'm curious if it's a better choice for me to use just for a month. What would you suggest?

For anxiety-induced tachycardia, both Ciplar LA (propranolol) 40 mg and Metoprolol 25 mg are commonly used beta-blockers to help control heart rate and blood pressure. In your case, since you have already started taking Ciplar LA 40 mg and have noticed an improvement in your resting heart rate and blood pressure within 4 days, it seems to be working well for you. Therefore, I would recommend continuing with Ciplar LA 40 mg for the next month as prescribed by your doctor. It has shown effectiveness in reducing your heart rate and maintaining a normal blood pressure range. Make sure to follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage and duration of treatment.

View allI've noticed my heart rate drops to around 41-45 when I'm sleeping, and I'm a bit worried about it. I'm currently taking Ivabradine, 5mg twice a day. During the day, my heart rate is generally between 85-90, and it goes up to 105-110 while I'm walking. I started on Ivabradine because my heart rate would hit 150 with just minimal exertion. Is it normal for my heart rate to drop like that while I'm asleep, or should I be concerned?
A heart rate dropping to 41-45 while sleeping can be concerning, especially if you are already on Ivabradine for high heart rate during the day. Since Ivabradine is a medication that helps lower heart rate, it is important to monitor your heart rate closely. In your case, since your heart rate during the day is around 85-90 and 105-110 while walking after taking Ivabradine, it seems like the medication is working to lower your heart rate effectively. However, a heart rate dropping significantly during sleep may warrant further evaluation. I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider to determine if any adjustments to your medication dosage or timing are needed. It's important to ensure that your heart rate remains within a safe range even during sleep.

I'm really worried about my dad who's been admitted to Nayati hospital in Mathura. He just got diagnosed with complete RBBB today. I'm in a bit of a dilemma about whether we should delay the angioplasty and find a doctor in Delhi NCR or just go ahead and get it done in Mathura. What I'm really curious about is if there's much difference in the quality of angioplasty between Mathura and Delhi. Is it risky to delay the procedure or is it fine to go with the doctors here in Mathura?
In general, the quality of angioplasty procedures can vary between hospitals and regions. However, Delhi NCR is known for having a higher concentration of top-tier hospitals and experienced cardiologists compared to Mathura. If the angioplasty is needed urgently and your father's condition requires immediate attention, it may be advisable to consider getting the procedure done in Delhi NCR where there may be more advanced facilities and expertise available. As for the decision to delay the angioplasty, it is important to consult with your father's healthcare team to assess the risks and benefits based on his specific medical condition and overall health. Delaying the procedure may pose risks in certain cases, so it is crucial to follow the advice of the medical professionals overseeing your father's care. If you decide to seek a doctor in Delhi NCR for the angioplasty, you can consider consulting with specialists at reputed hospitals like AIIMS, Fortis Escorts Heart Institute, or Medanta - The Medicity for further evaluation and treatment."
