I've been taking cardace 2.5 mg after consulting with Dr. Anand Chopda on August 17th. I've been monitoring my readings every morning before taking the tablet, and they are as follows: Aug 19 - 11277, Aug 20 - 11888, Aug 21 - 11883, Aug 22 - 13385, Aug 23 - 13195, Aug 24 - 12693, Aug 25 - 11773. Should I keep taking the cardace at this dosage, or is there a need for adjustment? I'm a bit concerned about these numbers. Any advice on this?

Based on the readings you have provided, it seems like your blood pressure has been fluctuating. However, it is important to note that a single reading may not provide a complete picture. Since you have been advised to take Cardace 2.5 mg by Dr. Anand Chopda, it is important to continue the medication as prescribed. The dosage of Cardace 2.5 mg is usually once daily. It is important to take the medication at the same time each day for best results. Additionally, it is recommended to monitor your blood pressure regularly and keep a record of the readings to share with your doctor during follow-up consultations. If you experience any unusual symptoms or have concerns about your blood pressure readings, please consult

View allI've been taking medication for high blood pressure and I'm just wondering what the normal range for blood pressure should be. Can you give me some advice on this?
The normal range for blood pressure values is typically around 12080 mmHg. For individuals on antihypertensive medication, the target blood pressure may vary slightly based on individual health conditions and guidance from your healthcare provider. Generally, maintaining a blood pressure below 13080 mmHg is often recommended to reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications. It's important to regularly monitor your blood pressure and follow your doctor's advice on medication and lifestyle changes to keep it within the target range.

I'm a bit concerned after reading my eco report, and I need some clarity on a few things. It mentions "normal cardiac chamber" but then there's "concentric LVH grade lLVDD." What does that mean exactly? Also, it says "trivial MR" and "trivial AR"are these something I should be worried about? There's mention of "NO RWMA," which I'm assuming is a good thing, right? And it states "normal biventricular" function, but then what's "distolic function LVEF60"? Is that normal? Lastly, there's "NO IC clot VEGPE intact IAS IVS"so does this mean everything's okay overall? I'd really appreciate your insights.
Based on the eco report provided, the findings indicate normal cardiac chambers with concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and grade 1 left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD). There is trivial mitral regurgitation (MR) and trivial aortic regurgitation (AR) present. There are no regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMA) noted. The biventricular and diastolic functions are normal with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 60%. There are no intracardiac clots, vegetations (VEG), or pulmonary embolism (PE) observed. The interatrial septum (IAS) and interventricular septum (IVS) are intact. Based on the findings, no specific treatment is required at this point. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor any changes in your cardiac health.

I've been dealing with this dull pain for about four months now, and I'm really starting to worry. I don't have any other symptoms like shortness of breath or anything, but I'm concerned it might be heart-related. Could this kind of pain without those typical symptoms still be linked to a heart issue?
Dull pain lasting for 4 months can be concerning, especially if it is located in the chest area. While chest pain can be a symptom of heart problems, it is not always the case. Other conditions such as muscle strain, acid reflux, or anxiety can also cause chest pain. Since you do not have any other symptoms like shortness of breath, it is less likely to be related to the heart. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. If the pain persists or worsens, you may consider taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for temporary relief.
