I've been dealing with this nose bleeding issue for years, but after I started taking clopilet, it just seemed to get worse. At first, I was on the 150mg dose with my other meds like ecospirin, but when the bleeding got out of hand, I reduced to 75mg, and still no improvement. I even saw an ENT specialist who gave me a calcium supplement for a bit, but I'm still bleeding. Could the clopilet be causing this, and what else can I do to manage it? I'm kind of stuck here and really need some advice.

The nose bleeding may be due to the antiplatelet medication Clopilet. Since the bleeding continued even after reducing the dosage, it is important to address this issue. I would recommend discussing with your doctor about switching to an alternative antiplatelet medication such as Brilinta (Ticagrelor) or Plavix (Clopidogrel) to see if the nose bleeding improves. Additionally, continue taking Ecospirin as prescribed. If the bleeding persists, further evaluation may be needed to determine the underlying cause of the nose bleeds.

I'm having this issue where my blood pressure keeps going up and downlike, sometimes it's around 143120 and other times it drops to 11063. I'm really not sure why this is happening, and it's making me anxious. Could you help me figure this out?

Fluctuating blood pressure readings can be concerning and may be influenced by various factors, including stress, anxiety, diet, and lifestyle habits. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management. In your case, since you are also experiencing anxiety, it is crucial to address both issues. For your fluctuating blood pressure, you can consider taking medications like Amlodipine 5mg for high blood pressure and Propranolol 20mg for anxiety. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and consult with a healthcare provider for further guidance. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, regular exercise, and stress management techniques can also help in managing your blood pressure and anxiety.
