I've been dealing with tachycardia for the last 2.5 months and my doctor mentioned it's because of stress and anxiety, giving me placida and clonofit .25. I'm just wondering if there's anything else I should consider doing, or if there's something more about these medications I should know?

View allI'm really worried about my blood pressure because even though I'm taking telma 40, austin cv, and dilgem 90 at night, my bp still isn't under controlit's currently 13797 with a pulse rate of 108. I also discovered I have a 2-80 block in my angiography, though my ECG seems normal. What should I do, and should I be concerned about anything else?
Your current blood pressure reading of 13797 is still elevated, especially with a pulse rate of 108. Since you have significant blockage in one of your coronary arteries, it is important to manage your blood pressure effectively. I recommend adding a calcium channel blocker to your current medication regimen. You can ask your doctor about adding a medication like Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, regular exercise, and stress management can also help in controlling your blood pressure.

I've got some concerns about my recent lipid profile results. My LDL cholesterol came back at 135.8 mgdl and my total cholesterol is 209.1 mgdl. Should I be worried that this indicates a serious health problem? If it's something to be concerned about, what steps can I take to address it?
Having LDL cholesterol levels above 130 mgdl and total cholesterol levels above 200 mgdl can increase your risk of heart disease. To manage your cholesterol levels, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, exercising regularly, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding smoking. In addition to lifestyle changes, your doctor may prescribe medication to help lower your cholesterol levels. One common medication used to lower LDL cholesterol is Atorvastatin, which is usually prescribed at a starting dose of 10-20 mg once daily. It is important to take the medication as prescribed and follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your cholesterol levels.

I'm dealing with severe anxiety and depression symptoms for the past few years, and I've had a couple of panic attacks. Now I'm seeing some ECG changes, but my Troponin levels are within normal limits. Both my ECHO and Angiography came out normal. Does this mean my heart is okay? Is it safe for me to do intense exercise? Sometimes I feel a sharp pain in my chest area that only lasts for a few seconds and goes away quickly. Any idea why my ECG has changed? What can I do about feeling weak all the time? And it's weird, but my feet are always cold. Any thoughts on what's going on?
The ECG changes could be related to your anxiety and panic attacks, but it's important to monitor them closely. To address the sharp pain in your heart area, you can take a low dose of a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25-50mg) as needed for chest pain relief. For your weakness, you can try taking a daily dose of a multivitamin like Centrum to ensure you're getting essential nutrients. Cold feet can be improved by wearing warm socks and keeping your feet elevated when possible. Regular exercise is beneficial for anxiety and depression, but start with low to moderate intensity workouts and gradually increase the intensity based on your tolerance.
