t necessarily need to stop your workouts but maybe just try and ease up a bit and not push as hard and see if giving your heart a little breather will help the ectopics settle down. In any event, try to not worry too much about the rate your heart is at and focus on keeping a healthy lifestyle which includes not over doing things and it will keep on ticking just fine.
How low and how fast your heart rate come down all depends on how long and how hard you are working out. I'd say that the numbers you are providing are more than reasonable for a person who had been sprinting up and down a field for 2 hours. Technically so long as your heart comes down below 100 it's normal.
But I am an anxious person and was prescribed beta blocker(Metoprolol ER 50mg and Amlong which was changed to 25mg metoprolol ER and Losartan 25mg after 4 years). Yes I dont have any heart problems and nothing in my family and also not diabetic. My age is 40. Still taking metoprolol only and will go for a review soon and would sort things out. I am happy with metoprolol 50mg ER to Bisoprolol 5mg...
I forgot to mention: When I was admitted to the hospital, my blood pressure was 195/99 with a heart rate of 98.
I've been checking my blood pressure three times daily since I started taking the losartan and on average it's around 125/75, with an average heart rate of 80.
From there he developed aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation, and his aorta began to dilate. He started taking losartan to help keep his aorta from enlarging anymore. We took him back for a check up and his cardiologist told us what my son has is rare and mainly seen in Marfan syndrome. His ascending aorta is a 2.9, at what point would surgery need to be done? He is 51 pounds. He also goes for a second opinion at Vanderbilt on May 12.
I had high blood pressure years ago, and after taking one or two medications with little success, I was given 25mg of Atenolol, which worked extremely well. Since then, the dose has been increased to 50mg, and that has done the trick--kept my blood pressure under 140/90.
Recently though, I've been having an issue controlling my blood pressure. I felt really crappy a few months ago, and when I came home from a hike, my blood pressure was around 160/100.
My mother is diagnose with unstable angina a month a ago and the doctor asked us to monitor her blood pressure since she is discharged from the hospital her blood pressure is always normal but there are sometimes that her bp is 100/50 and last day her bp is 120/40 she is 71 years old and taking medications such as norvasc. lipitor,aspirin, imdur or ISMN and losartan. Please help me is it normal for her age? Thank you...
Yeah I don't think it's "casual" either he just said people with hypertension sometimes get this. He's wanting to wait on the beta blocker where my heart rate stays so low so he went with an alpha blocker. Right now is the first time I've taken a alpha blocker my heart rate is staying in the 90's usual 60's resting for me and I'm feeling really warm all over....and a really dry conjested nose.....
Two weeks prior to this panic attack I had ablation performed on my heart for SVT (heart arrhythmia). Since then, I have had several panic attacks and was put on Lexapro 20mg and Xanax .5mg as needed. Most of my panic attacks happen in restaurants and I end up fainting. It is getting to the point where I don't want to eat out anymore because I am afraid of humiliating myself and whoever I happen to be having lunch or dinner with.
Hey everyone thanks in advance for those of you that are reading this it Is greatly appreciated of any feed back. First of I'm 22 years of age, male about 6'2 kinda muscular 228 pounds, and pretty active. I've been diagnosed with hypertension and was put on losartan 50mg/hctz 12.5mg by my cardiologist when my blood pressure was running about 150-160/80-90 consistantly about 2 months ago.
Hi thanks in advance for taking time to read this short question, and god bless! I'm 22 year old male, cardiologist currently has me taking 100mg losartan/hctz 25mg.
I'm not over weight I've played sports all my life, I don't smoke or drink, I eat decently healthy, but I cant seem to keep my systolic number down...exercise doesn't seem to help either. My top numbers stay 130's-150's throughout the day. Bottom numbers are about 60'-80...averages 75....
Hi ajr81,
Be sure to talk to your cardiologist about the drugs called ARBs. Please visit www.marfanlife.net, even if you don't have Marfan Syndrome, and check the thread on "losartan.
t have problems with heart rate (usually between 70 and 80 during the day and around 60 in the morning) before taking beta blocker I usually had quite high HR (approximately 90)
I'm writing all this because it seems that I started to suffer from "Erectile Dysfunction"or at least everything seems to be pretty much different than before. Behavior has been changing during period of taking drug.
Your BP will still increase, but the increase will be a lot less than when you use the Valsalva. And wear a heart rate monitor when you lift, so that your rate stays down. If you have a lifting BP of let's say 160/100 and your HR is 110, that is obviously worse than if your lifting BP is 160/100 and your HR is 80. There's more strain on the aortic wall.
Lifting light weights *****, you say. Well, maybe not.
