View allI'm really worried because lately Ive been experiencing this weird heart fluttering sensation. Its been happening for the last 15 days whenever Im asleep. I suddenly wake up feeling unconscious, and its like I cant even express what Im going through. For a moment, I seriously feel like Im dying, but then after a few seconds, I feel okay again. It happened again last week and then today during the day when I napped. Its super scary and I dont understand whats going on or why this is happening when Im sleeping. Can you please help me figure out what this might be?
Hii, it sounds like you are experiencing episodes of heart palpitations or fluttering. This can be a concerning symptom and it's important to get evaluated by a healthcare professional. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate and reduce palpitations. It is important to follow up with a doctor for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I've been dealing with high blood pressure at 160100, and even after taking medication for four months, it hasn't improved. Yesterday, I was given two different prescriptions, and now I'm feeling dizzy in the morning and can't stand. The doctor mentioned some tests too. Is this something I should be worried about? Why isn't my blood pressure going down?
It is concerning that your blood pressure is still high despite taking medication for 4 months. The dizziness and inability to stand after taking the new medications could be due to their side effects. It is important to follow up with your doctor regarding these symptoms. Regarding why your blood pressure is not coming down, there could be various reasons such as medication resistance, underlying health conditions, lifestyle factors, or incorrect dosage. It is crucial to discuss this with your doctor to adjust your treatment plan accordingly. In the meantime, make sure to monitor your blood pressure regularly, follow a healthy diet low in sodium, engage in regular physical activity, manage stress, and avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.
