Suggest Treatment For High BP And Hypothyroidism

I am a 78 year old female with upper body weakness that started in the afternoon for 2 days in a row. When I get up in the a.m. I am fine. My health is good. The same thing used to happen off and on many years ago and they went away after a time. I just had yearly physical and bloodworm was fine. I take meds for high blood pressure and hypothyroidism and both are under control. I have mitral valve prolapse with regurgitation. Any Ideas?

Hi,
Thanks for the query. I undrstand your concern.
The mitral valve regurgitation you have must be causing you weakness... due improper oxygenation .... aggravated by day to day activities.
You should consult a cardiologist to get suitable treatment for you.
You can lessen the symptoms by avoiding fast/stressful activities&taking regular breaks for rest in between.
Take light small frequent food .

Thanks
