Heart Diseases

I have had several times in the morning when I knew my blood pressure was high - and I need to know if it is safe to take it during that time or do I need to wait until my bp meds kick in.

Understand that the vagus nerve is not retransplanted after transplant and so Atropine would be useless in symptomatic bradycardia. But what stops the heart from beating faster and faster if there is no parasympathetic innervation to slow it down? Is this something to do with its intrinsic regulation where it does not need signals from the brain to make it beat? Is this the same as "heart brain"? Isn't the heart exposed to unopposed stimulation by sympathetic nerves if the vagus nerve is missing?

Is it possible to feel heart fluttering not only on the left hand side, but that it 'spreads' to the middle or right-hand side of the chest? I am sure that it isn't a case of muscle twitching and it is discomforting. I am 28 years old, lower end of normal weight, and not on any long-term medication.

I've been experiencing a rapid heart rate for the past few weeks now. I've had a ECG and Blood Test done and my doctor told me everything was fine except that I have a "fast heart rate". He doesn't seem concerned about this. I've told him that at times it pounds so fast that I feel light headed. It comes and goes all the times and it scares me some. I also told the doctor that it skips at times, almost like a grinding sound, its hard to explain. I've talked to 2 different druggest here in town and they both said "its too high". That I should be on a beta blocker to slow it down. It just comes on when ever. Nothing seems to trigger it so I don't understand.

I have high blood pressure and high chol and have been on meds for them for years now to control it. Occasionally my PB does go up. I don't know what to do, should I be concerned or will this pass.

My question is, has anyone else experienced this and was anything done to help the rate slow down some.

Thank you

One of the doctors said I might have asthma and I was prescribed to use inhalers. I never used the inhalers. Next two months, I went back to see my doctor and the doctor said my heart pumps normally now. I think it is awkward for wrong diagnoses. Is there something wrong with me? answer

Did you know walking alone is not good enough? You'll have a stronger heart with sprints included too - but you can only do these if you are healthy.

My mom has essential high blood pressure sometimes reaching over the 200/160 mark. As her blood pressure has been high for a while she has an enlarged right ventricle which will and is leading to CHF. Her breathing is already heavy. Her doctor has given her Betaloc, Plendil, Inhibace, Dosan, Cartia a blood thinner, Lipex for high cholesterol and Quinine for night cramps. She's in her early 70's and she complains of head aches, extreme fatigue and loss of energy. She has increasing dark circles around her eyes as if she hasn't slept in months with shortness of breath like she's gasping for air. I would like her to try natural remedies because these synthetic drugs don't appear to be doing much for her overall health. Can anyone advise some really good and effective natural remedies to treat both high blood pressure and CHF? I know Celery is good for lowering blood pressure.
