My daughter 26 years old normally has pulse rate above 100. Her health is otherwise normal. What should I do?
Female | 26
It is important to consult with a physician in order to determine the cause of your daughter's high pulse rate. It could be due to an underlying medical condition, such as an overactive thyroid, or it could be due to lifestyle factors, such as stress or dehydration. The doctor can evaluate her and recommend any necessary treatment. In the meantime, it is important to make sure she is engaging in regular physical activity, eating a balanced diet, and getting enough rest.

I was diagnosed with hypertension at age 13. I started taking Lisinopril 5mg daily with great results. Two weeks ago i noticed my resting bloodpressure is perfect (104/67-120/80) but as soon as i stand it rises to 121/80s-139/90s and distolic goes even higher the longer i stand and increased palpatations sometimes with discomfort. I do not work. Im 29 year old male. Ive avoided standing and exercise sence i noticed changes. What could this be. Thyroid bloodwork is normal.
Male | 29
You are possibly having orthostatic hypertension, which is a sharp rise in blood pressure when getting up from a sitting position. I would suggest that you see a cardiologist who can do the necessary tests to identify the underlying cause and after that offer the right treatment.

My dad had Bypass surgery a one half month back and since that day onwards he is getting dry cough with no mucus, we met operating doctor and although he gave medicines its not controlling plz suggest something what should I do
Multiple factors may cause a persisting dry cough following bypass surgery – medication reaction or due to the surgical procedure itself. Follow up with your dad’s cardiologist who operated on him. If the current treatment does not work, they may need to change his medicines or find other reasons for coughing. Furthermore, it could be beneficial to consult a pulmonologist because sometimes lung related problems might be causing the problem. The best way to deal with this symptom effectively while ensuring your dad’s comfort and recovery is through prompt, proper medical evaluation.

How to improve heart working. It's working just 30% ,so what can we do for improv our heart health with medicine like vitamins with food and which one?
Male | 62
Your heart's pumping power is low, about 30%. It makes you easily tired, short of breath, and dizzy. Eating vitamin-rich foods helps, like fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Omega-3 fish oil supplements can also boost heart health. Exercise regularly and reduce stress levels. These lifestyle changes may strengthen your heart. You can consult a cardiologist.

I recently switched medications from hctz to chlorthalidone. Should there be a difference typically?
Male | 40
Both HCTZ and chlorthalidone are used to treat high blood pressure and water retention. But chlorthalidone is known to have a longer duration of action and a higher potency compared to HCTZ. It is recommended to consult your cardiologist if you are experiencing any changes in your blood pressure or other symptoms after switching medications.

Hello, I have been having pain in my right shoulder and in my chest around my heart area, but when I take my prescribed medication for my heart. It doesn't alleviate the pain. I had a massive heart attack back in 2011 and I currently have a defibrillator, so now I take Aspirin, Lisenapril and a couple of other meds, but I notice that I still have pain on my left side which makes it kinda hard to breathe. I work as a dishwasher and I don't do a lot of heavy lifting, so I don't know what it could be. I can barely lift my arm because of it. Please help!

What would it take for me to be able to have a lead pellet removed from the lymph node so rounding the main aorta of your heart. With MRI results show ing to be a sixteenth of an inch from said aorta. The incident had happened in the summer of 1998. I'll be 40 in a couple of months. I'm sick of being afraid to breathe.
Male | 39
I know you are worried about the lead pellet that is close to your aorta. In such situations, only a specialist can determine the best course of action. The closeness to such a life-saving place is really indeed severe. Chest pain, breathing problems, or exhaustion are some of the symptoms to look for. Seeking medical help right away is vital for a proper assessment and the recommendation of treatment options.

It is important that you follow the advice of your doctors and get the angiography done. This diagnostic test will help to get a better understanding of your heart condition. It is also important to take preventive steps like regular exercise, eating healthy and balanced diet, avoiding smoking and alcohol, and managing stress so the condition does not deteriorate. It is also important to maintain a healthy weight, and to get regular medical checkups.

Nocturnal chest pain can be due to a number of medical problems. It can be because of heart diseases such as angina and myocardial infarction, or respiratory diseases that include asthma and COPD. Visiting a cardiologist or pulmonologist can give you a precise diagnosis and treatment.

A faster heartbeat and chest discomfort aren't normal side effects when using minoxidil for facial hair growth. These signs could mean something else health-wise. Stop using the product, and talk to a cardiologist. They'll do an exam and guide you on the right next steps.

There is no such guaranteed medicine for DCMP LVEF. And to start the course of treatment, physical examinations and tests are required. For a healthy diet, you can include lots of fruits, vegetables, lean meats and whole grains.
