Question

I've just turned 38 and I'm on Eslo 5 mg for my blood pressure. Lately, though, I've noticed my readings creeping up to around 15090. Should I be worried about this, and is there something I should do to get it back under control?

If your blood pressure is consistently high even after taking Eslo 5mg, it may be time to increase your medication. Visit your regular physician for recalibration of anti-hypertensive medication. Lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise of about 30 minutes everyday and cessation of smokingdrinking may be helpful. Opting for a DASH diet may also help control hypertension.

Question

I'm feeling really anxious about some things I've noticed. My recent ECG showed some non-specific T wave changes, and I'm not sure what that means. On top of that, I've been dealing with chronic pain in my left arm and I've also been experiencing tachycardia. Should I be worried about these symptoms together? Any advice or insights would be really helpful.

Question

I've been taking Tazloc 40 mg and Nebicard 2.5 mg every day, but I've started having a lot of congestion and trouble with my breathing. I decided to stop them, and now the side effects are gone. Between these two medications, which one could be causing these issues?

Question

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?
