I've been dealing with high blood pressure and I've been prescribed Cilaheart. Since starting it, I've been struggling with insomnia and muscle weakness. I'm really worried that the medication might be causing these problems. Can medications like this have such side effects? Also, could you suggest any alternatives to Cilaheart and maybe some lifestyle changes I can make to help with my blood pressure?

View allI've been having these palpitations for a while now, and lately, my hands start shaking with each heartbeat. If I rest something like a pen on my chest, it moves up and down. Plus, there's this visible pulsation, but I can't really pinpoint exactly where it's happening in my chest or abdomen. What could this mean?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations along with visible pulsations. This can be concerning and may require further evaluation. One possible medication that can help with palpitations is Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor). The usual dosage for palpitations is 25-100mg twice daily. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I'm a bit worried because I've been taking Rosukem A1075 after getting diagnosed with T2DM in September 2018. The cardiac doctor I visited then suggested this medication for a normal ECG and echo. But I've just got my annual health checkup reports, and both the ECG and TMT turned out fine. Now I'm unsure if I should keep taking this tablet. My diabetologist says I should continue with Rosuvas 5. Could you help me figure out what to do?
Since you were advised Rosukem A1075 by the cardiologist, it is important to follow their recommendation for your heart health. Rosukem A1075 contains Rosuvastatin 10mg and Aspirin 75mg, which helps in managing cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of cardiovascular events. As for your diabetologist's advice to continue Rosuvas 5, it contains Rosuvastatin 5mg which also helps in lowering cholesterol. It is important to follow both specialists' advice for optimal management of your conditions. So, you can continue taking Rosukem A1075 as advised by the cardiologist and Rosuvas 5 as advised by the diabetologist for your overall health."

I'm curious about why my blood pressure spikes to 180100 during times of aggression, while it's usually around 11080 or 12080 when I'm calm. I don't have diabetes or thyroid issues, and my echo, ECG, and TMT results are normal. My lipid profile shows LDL at 60, HDL at 37, and total cholesterol at 110. Is there any underlying pathological condition that could be causing these blood pressure fluctuations?
Aggression or stress can indeed cause a temporary spike in blood pressure. Since your heart tests and lipid profile are normal, the elevated blood pressure may be due to situational factors. However, it is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consider lifestyle modifications. In case of persistent high blood pressure, your doctor may prescribe medications like Amlodipine 5mg or Losartan 50mg to help keep it under control.
