I've been tracking my blood pressure, and back in October, it was around 180100, but now it's dropped to 13080. I've been taking Telvas 3D, and I'm wondering if I should keep using it or maybe switch to something else. Why does my blood pressure keep changing so much?

Your blood pressure has improved significantly from 180100 in October to 13080 this month while taking Telvas 3D. This variation in blood pressure can be due to various factors such as stress, diet, physical activity, and medication adherence. It's great to see that your current medication is helping to lower your blood pressure. There is no need to change your tablets if your blood pressure is well controlled with Telvas 3D. This medication is a combination of Telmisartan, Amlodipine, and Hydrochlorothiazide, which work together to help lower blood pressure. The usual dosage is one tablet once daily, but it's important to follow your doctor's recommendations regarding dosage adjustments. Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly and continue with a healthy lifestyle to maintain good blood pressure control. If you have any concerns or notice any unusual symptoms, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm kind of worried because all of a sudden my heart started racing, and when I went to the hospital, they checked my blood pressure and gave me these BP tablets. I've been taking them, but I'm wondering if I should keep taking them or if it's okay to stop. What should I do?

Sudden increase in heart rate can be concerning. It's important to follow the advice of your healthcare provider regarding the medication. If you were given medication for high blood pressure, it's important to continue taking it as prescribed. Stopping the medication abruptly can be harmful. If you have any concerns or experience any side effects, please consult your healthcare provider for further guidance.

I'm really worried about heart health. Could you tell me what tests are usually done to find heart disease? And what are the early signs of a heart attack I should watch out for? Also, what can I do to prevent a heart attack from happening in the first place?

To detect heart disease in the body, tests such as Electrocardiogram (ECG), Echocardiogram, Stress test, Cardiac catheterization, and CT scan may be done. Symptoms of a heart attack may include chest pain or discomfort, upper body pain, shortness of breath, nausea, lightheadedness, and cold sweats. To prevent a heart attack, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle by exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet low in saturated fats, managing stress, avoiding smoking, and controlling conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes.

I recently used a BP machine, and it showed that I have an irregular heartbeat. I went ahead and did an ECG. Can an ECG detect any sort of irregular heartbeat? I'm a bit concerned and hoping for some clarity.

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
