I've been taking a combo of moduretic and lisinopril for a few years now, with 20mg of lisinopril and 5mg of moduretic. I'm 40 years old, weigh 120kg, and I'm 6ft tall. I try to stay active by working out three times a week. But anytime I push myself a bit, like getting to sleep late, having a few extra drinks, or dealing with stress, my blood pressure seems to get really resistant for days. Is there something I'm missing or should be doing differently?

View allI've been experiencing really strong heartbeats two or three times a day for the last year and a half, especially when I'm doing anything physical. Otherwise, my blood pressure seems normal. I'm feeling pretty scared about this. Should I see a doctor?
It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of palpitations. In such cases, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. You can try taking Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) 25mg once a day to help control your heart rate and reduce the intensity of palpitations. However, it is advisable to consult a doctor for a proper evaluation and further management.

I'm really worried about my brother. He's been having some chest discomfort and mild pain that sometimes happens on the left side and other times in the center. He gets really nervous, and his heart rate spikes to around 90-98 bpm when this happens, but when he's more relaxed, it goes back down to about 68-72 bpm. He runs on the treadmill for 20 to 30 minutes at least five days a week and doesn't feel any discomfort during that time. Although he has an acidity and GERD problem, he's finished his course of medication and isn't taking any other tablets. His sugar and blood pressure are normal, and chest X-rays came back fine, with an orthopaedic saying it's nothing serious and just suggesting vitamins. He also feels pain at certain points when the chest is pressed. With all these symptoms, I'm wondering if it could be his heart, acidity, muscular, or maybe even a nerve issue. Do you think an angiography would be necessary given his normal reports so far?
Since all the reports are normal ,advised a psychiatric opinion for diagnosis of anxiety and other conditions..
