View allI'm really concerned about my mom's health. She's been dealing with high blood pressure, and it was at 160100 before she started taking Aginalat, which thankfully brought it down to around 12590. Her X-ray showed her heart is slightly enlarged, and she's got some swelling in her legs. Our doctor just recommended she start taking Aquazide 12.5mg in the morning. Since both medications are for high blood pressure and the swelling, I'm wondering if it's okay for her to take them at the same time? Could it possibly be risky like making her blood pressure drop too low?
If she is already taking Aginal-AT for high blood pressure and her doctor has now prescribed Aquazide 12.5mg for swelling and high blood pressure, it is generally safe to take both medications together as long as they are taken as prescribed. Both medications work in different ways to help control blood pressure and reduce swelling. The usual dosing for Aquazide 12.5mg is 1 tablet once a day. Taking both medications at the same time (1-0-0) should not harm her health or cause her blood pressure to drop too low. However, it is important to monitor her blood pressure regularly and report any symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, or weakness to her doctor. Additionally, her doctor may adjust the dosage or timing of the medications if needed based on her response.

I'm having some mild shortness of breath along with chest tightness and a bit of back pain that spreads to my neck. I've done tests like ECG, echo, TMT, chest X-ray, diabetes checks, and PFT, and all came back normal, but my cholesterol was high. I'm taking Rosuvas for that and also Amlodipine for high blood pressure. My weight is 110 kg, and my BP is 14090. Should I be getting any more tests or changing my meds? I'm also in the process of trying to lose weight. What do you think?

I've noticed my heart rate is pretty high, around 110 bpm, even though all my tests like blood work, TMT, and the ECG are normal, with just sinus tachycardia showing up. I don't have any issues when I'm running, but the high heart rate still worries me. I'm really anxious about my heart, and even my blood pressure is normal. Could anxiety be causing this, or is there something else I should consider?
You may be experiencing anxiety-related tachycardia. In such cases, it is important to address the underlying anxiety to help reduce the heart rate. You can try taking propranolol (brand name: Inderal) as needed to help lower your heart rate and reduce anxiety symptoms. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial in managing your anxiety and heart rate.
