I've noticed my blood pressure is usually around 10462 during the day, but when I'm resting or sleeping, it drops into the 9050s range. I've been keeping an eye on it for about a month and the pattern seems pretty consistent. I had an echocardiogram earlier this year, and it showed I have a diastolic relaxation abnormality. I'm wondering if this could be causing my low blood pressure? Could it lead to more heart-related complications, or is it normal for blood pressure to drop like this at night? I've been feeling really fatigued and low on energy no matter how much I sleep, and it's a bit worrying. What do you think?

Low blood pressure during rest or sleep can be influenced by various factors, including underlying conditions such as diastolic dysfunction. In your case, the diastolic relaxation abnormality noted in your echocardiography may contribute to the lower blood pressure readings, especially during periods of rest. This can potentially lead to symptoms of fatigue and lack of energy. To address this issue, it is important to manage the underlying diastolic dysfunction. In addition, ensuring an adequate intake of fluids and electrolytes can help stabilize blood pressure. If symptoms persist, medications such as Midodrine or Fludrocortisone may be prescribed to raise blood pressure levels, especially during periods of rest or sleep. However, it is crucial to consult with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

Hey, a few days back I had a weird situation where I started feeling really anxious, my heart rate shot up to 150, and I had palpitations. I took Ciplar LA 20 and Dolo 650, and luckily my pulse eventually dropped back to 75. I'm trying to figure out if this was Supraventricular Tachycardia or just something normal? This happened to me once about three months ago, and it got better after taking Dolo 650 and some anxiety meds. I even had an ECG done in May, and that came out perfect. Do you think these two episodes could be Supraventricular Tachycardia, or are they just normal?

Based on your description, it is possible that you experienced episodes of Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) given the sudden onset of palpitations, anxiety feeling, and rapid rise in pulse rate to 150 beats per minute. The fact that your symptoms improved after taking Ciplar LA 20 (propranolol) which is a beta-blocker commonly used to manage SVT supports this possibility. Additionally, the normal ECG results in May suggest that there may not be any underlying structural heart issues causing the SVT. For the management of SVT episodes, you can continue to use Ciplar LA 20 as needed to help control your heart rate. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to discuss long-term management options, such as potential medication adjustments or other interventions like ablation therapy. In the meantime, it is advisable to avoid triggers that may precipitate SVT episodes, such as caffeine, stress, or certain medications. Keeping a record of your symptoms and discussing them with your healthcare provider can also help in monitoring your condition effectively.
