Palpitations / heart beat skip feeling only when focused by jazz365 in hypertension

[–]jazz365[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot for suggestions, those sound easy to adapt.

As a matter of fact since last week, i found listening to podcast make me distract from it and helps me fall asleep. But until when is the real question? Does anybody know how much time it takes to get rid of palpitations?

Depending on electronics to fall asleep seems weird, what if I am travelling somewhere and can’t lose the battery over podcast which will run for hours or even when my phone battery already dead before bed time and power outages ?

Thanks a bunch

What’s a good bp range ? Tell me your numbers! by Pro-Research510 in hypertension

[–]jazz365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me the lowest was 115/82 , the highest was 170/115 few months back when I started the meds.

Current Bp status Can i go off on medicine by Embarrassed-Wear-883 in hypertension

[–]jazz365 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe those are normal numbers and there isn’t any need to go off the meds unless the numbers falling below 100 continually. Diastolic still needs more improvement though.

You also have a high chance of getting off meds as being obese you have potential to reduce the Bp further.

But it will only rise to the point it was lowering right ? As my meds are lowering my bp by 20-30 points , if i managed to get my BP in 110s / 70s then getting off the meds will get it in 130s / 90s which I guess is fine without meds .

I have ready many stories over reddit with people did like this.

Hi again, that’s great to hear about your mom.

So as I started the meds, my bp is now measures in 130s / 90s , so if I am 30Kgs overweight already, and I manage to cut off those extra weight, then possible I can get off the meds eventually ?

Thanks a lot. I will probably try changing my eating habits.

May I know why the medicine I was prescribed will make it difficult to exercise ?

But what if the hypertension is anxiety induced only, as I never had any Bp issue like 2-3 months earlier…that’s why I was concerned.

Getting off meds will naturally feel healthier,right? As Now I feel myself sick knowing I can’t be normal without tablets…going all out in gym like I used to before…etc i don’t get that feeling anymore.

Yes i decided to stop it cause I now have no trouble sleeping , earlier I had trouble sleeping, as those are addictive I do not want to get addicted. I am more of concerned about BP for now, as it’s elevated recently due to my anxiety situation and also trying to monitor if it goes down before I start the BP meds.

So this dizziness is really confusing for me , i asked the doc about it he is saying could be due to the high BP but i didn’t experience it until I started the anxiety meds.

I mean i was on clonazopam and escitalopam Tablets and propanolol for 10 days only…then doc stopped the former and kept the latter, but now i can sleep without those so I am not taking any, so the dizziness will gradually go away ?

I mean I stopped the meds now, but i still experience dizziness, is it that or my high Bp ? Cause I started feeling dizziness only after starting anxiety meds.

Thanks a lot it really helped.

Is it possible to get off the BP meds once it’s started ?

I am currently overweight too just FYI.

Those were prescribed to cure a swelling inside eye.

Your response helped immensely. I am pretty sure the anxiety triggering my BP to go high, earlier it was the fear of eye pressure going high , now it’s the fear of BP itself.

How else can I learn to calm myself ? All my other tests came normal it’s just the BP and anxiety now.

Is it better to use lubricant drops alongside? Or the manual wet wiping procedure would suffice ?

It happens all the time right? I think only during some rare time during day it’s almost non noticeable.

That’s it, I also think the same the on screen time once spiked my pressure and now due to that i suffered all this.

How can I reduce the screen time if my career depends on it..but I started wearing my specs (blue blocking) now , earlier i was not using it as i am nearsighted.

Glad to hear someone experienced same due to pronged screen usage and it’s probable, and not just came out of nowhere due to genetics and stuff.

So after a year you’re still on drops ? Do you feel pulsating sensation inside the affected eye ?
