Question 1

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure readings over the past two days. They've been around 10476, 11076, 10583, and 10366. This started after I switched my medication from Metoprolol 50 mg to Tazloc CT 406.25 about 10 days ago. Are these readings considered low? Could you please tell me what would be considered low blood pressure?

Accepted Answer

The blood pressure readings you have provided are within the normal range. Low blood pressure is typically considered to be a systolic pressure less than 90 mmHg and a diastolic pressure less than 60 mmHg. Since your readings are consistently above these values, your blood pressure is not considered low. Regarding the medication change from metoprolol to tazloc CT-406.25, it seems to be working well for you as your blood pressure readings are within the normal range. Keep monitoring your blood pressure regularly and consult your doctor if you have any concerns

Question 2

I'm really struggling with severe chest pain but all my heart tests like ECG, 2D Echo, and TMT showed nothing wrong. I'm also dealing with frequent panic attacks and heart palpitations, which is really concerning. I've been taking anti-inflammatory meds for about 10 days, but there's been no improvement. Could you please advise me on what I should do next?

Accepted Answer

Question 3

I'm a bit worried about my cholesterol levels after getting my test results. My total cholesterol is 179 mgdL, and my HDL is 54 mgdL, but my triglycerides are 255 mgdL. The LDL came in at 77 mgdL and VLDL was calculated at 50.9 mgdL. I've read that the TCHDL ratio is 3.3, and the LDLHDL ratio is 1.4are these numbers okay? Should I be concerned about my triglycerides and how they might affect my health? What should I do next?

Accepted Answer

The lipid profile results show that your total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglyceride levels are within normal ranges. However, your VLDL cholesterol level is slightly elevated, which may increase your risk of heart disease. To help lower your triglyceride levels and VLDL cholesterol, you can consider taking a medication such as Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10-80 mg per day. It is important to also maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle to improve your lipid profile.
