I'm really concerned about my mom. She had her MVR surgery back in December 2011, and for the past year and a half, she's been paralyzed. Recently, her INR levels were all over the place and hit 6, so we stopped her dose for three days. We've restarted with acitrom 2, but on November 10th her INR was 1.99 and PT was 20. I'm trying to figure out what the right dosage should be for her now. Any advice would be really helpful.

Regarding your mother's case, based on her current situation with an INR of 1.99 and PT of 20, the appropriate dose adjustment for her would be to continue with Acitrom 2, but with a slight increase in dosage. I recommend increasing the dose to Acitrom 2.5 to help stabilize her INR levels more effectively. It's important to monitor her INR levels regularly to ensure they stay within the target range.

I'm 19 years and 8 months old and this morning I almost fainted. I went to a clinic and the doctor checked my BP, which was 1690 mmHg. They said it's really high. I'm worried and I want to understand how serious my condition is and what precautions I should be taking right now. What steps should I follow to manage this?

Your blood pressure reading of 16090 mmHg indicates that you have high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make some lifestyle changes to manage it. Here are some precautions you can take: - Start with lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet low in sodium, saturated fats, and cholesterol. - Engage in regular physical activity such as brisk walking or swimming for at least 30 minutes most days of the week. - Maintain a healthy weight and avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. - Manage stress through relaxation techniques like deep breathing exercises or yoga. - Ensure you get an adequate amount of sleep each night. - Consider medication if lifestyle changes are not enough to control your blood pressure. Your doctor may prescribe medications such as Losartan 50mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your blood pressure and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

I'm noticing my heartbeat feels really strong and visible in my stomach and chest all the time. Sometimes when I'm just sitting, it actually makes my body move with each beat. Is that something normal? My heart rate usually sits between 70 to 80 beats per minute, and my blood pressure is around 12090. Does that sound okay?

Having a visible heartbeat in your stomach and chest, along with feeling strong pulsations, can be concerning. This may be due to a condition called aortic aneurysm or other cardiovascular issues. Your blood pressure of 12090 is slightly elevated and should be monitored. It's important to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
