View allI'm experiencing some issues and I'm pretty worried. I've been diagnosed with hypertension and I'm also noticing my hands are trembling quite a bit. Can you tell me what steps I should take or any advice on how to manage these? I would really appreciate your help.
For hypertension and hand tremors, you can start by taking Atenolol 25mg once daily for hypertension. Additionally, you can take Propranolol 10mg twice daily for hand tremors. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your doctor for any adjustments in your treatment plan.

I've been on Axcer 90 along with Aspirin 75 since September 2018 until September 2019. After that, from September 2019 to May 2020, I switched to Axcer 60 with Aspirin 75 mg. I stopped taking Axcer 60 about 20 days ago, and now I'm feeling a bit uneasy in my chest sometimes at night. I had a heart attack back in September 2018 and I've had a preventative stress echo twice in the last 18 months, which came out fine. Is it possible that this uneasiness is some kind of withdrawal effect from stopping Axcer?
It is possible to experience withdrawal symptoms when stopping Axcser (clopidogrel) abruptly, especially after long-term use. Symptoms may include chest pain or discomfort, shortness of breath, weakness, dizziness, or palpitations. Since you have a history of heart attack, it is important to consult your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen. To manage any potential withdrawal symptoms, your doctor may recommend gradually tapering off the Axcser dosage instead of stopping it suddenly. Additionally, they may provide alternative medications or adjust your treatment plan to ensure the best outcomes for your heart health.

I've been dealing with moderate hypertension since I got diagnosed with a BP of 168122 on December 18th, and I've been put on Telma 40. But for the past three days, I've been having this awful headache and pain in my cheek, only on the left side of my face. My blood pressure is still at 150115 even though I've been taking the medicine for these three days. Should I be concerned about this, and what should I do next?
Given your recent diagnosis of moderate hypertension and the current blood pressure readings of 150115 despite taking Telma 40 (telmisartan), it is essential to address this promptly. Your persistent headache and left-sided cheek pain might indicate uncontrolled hypertension, which can lead to severe complications if not managed appropriately. Firstly, I recommend you seek immediate medical attention to evaluate your symptoms. Your healthcare provider might need to adjust your blood pressure medication or add additional antihypertensive agents to better control your blood pressure. They may also want to investigate the cause of your headache and cheek pain to rule out other potential issues, such as sinusitis or trigeminal neuralgia. In the meantime, continue taking your medication as prescribed and avoid any activities that could elevate your blood pressure further. Please contact your healthcare provider as soon as possible to discuss these symptoms.
