I've been dealing with high blood pressure for the past five months, and it's really starting to worry me. I get dizzy, have blurred vision, headaches, and neck pain too. The weird thing is, sometimes my blood pressure shoots up after I eat. I'm a 26-year-old female, weighing 90 kg with a height of 5'9". My thyroid tests are normal, but I've been on losakindh 25 mg for about three months, and it doesn't seem to be helping anymore. Do you have any advice on what might be going on or what I could try next?

It seems like your blood pressure is not well controlled with Losakind-H 25 mg anymore. I recommend adding a calcium channel blocker like Amlodipine 5 mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, you can consider adding a diuretic like Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg once daily to further control your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.

View allI've got pretty high cholesterol levels, like 267, and my LDL is around 180, but my HDL is at 60.59. I tried using statins to lower my cholesterol, but I started having some issues, like erection problems, so I had to stop. Even with changes to my diet and exercise, the lowest I could get my cholesterol down to was 234. Can you recommend any medications that won't mess with my sexual health, or maybe some natural remedies? I also tried Rosave 10, which didn't cause any sexual issues, but it did make me urinate more frequently. What should I consider next?
Given your history of experiencing sexual side effects with statins, a good alternative medication for lowering cholesterol levels without such side effects is Ezetimibe (brand name Zetia). You can take Ezetimibe 10mg once daily. It works by decreasing the absorption of cholesterol from the diet. Additionally, you can consider adding Omega-3 fatty acids supplements to your daily regimen, as they have been shown to help lower cholesterol levels naturally. Make sure to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication or supplement.

I'm a bit concerned and confused about my blood pressure readings. I've been using an electronic BP machine at home, and I've noticed that my readings are high when I first measure it while sittingsomething like 135 to 140 over 90 to 95. But after a few minutes, it seems to drop to around 125 to 130 over 85 to 90. Does this mean I might need medication, or is this fluctuation normal?
"Based on your blood pressure readings, it seems like you have elevated blood pressure, especially when initially measured in a sitting position. It is recommended to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle modifications to help lower it. If your blood pressure consistently remains high, medication may be necessary. I would recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to discuss possible treatment options. In the meantime, you can try to reduce your blood pressure through lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, reducing salt intake, and managing stress."

I'm 25 and have been having trouble breathing for about 6 months now. I got a 2D echo done, and it says I have mitral valve prolapse with mild mitral regurgitation and type 1 diastolic dysfunction. How serious is this, and is there a chance it could get worse over the next few years?
