MD Hello. I went to the cardiologist today and had both an electro cardiogram and an echo cradiogram done. I ve had a heart murmer since my birth, though I am not sure exactly what kind it is. However, I do know for a fact that it is an innocent murmur, and that I should expect to outgrow it within the next few years. I am fifteen by the way. Now, I have smoked marijuana several times. I began this year. Usually it went fine. Then when i began to do it more frequently and at higher doses, I would feel the increased heart-rate, panic, etc. I realize this is normal. But i once fainted for a few seconds as a result of standing up too quickly while high. I understand that this is brought about by a rapid decrease in blood pressure? That s only happened once though. Other side effects have been a slight cold/fuzzy feeling in the left chest at the very beginning of the buzz, which goes away shortly. My question is if I can safely use marijuana in moderation, like once a month or probably less. How does my heart murmur play into all of this? Thank you.

MD Hello, I have very bad neurocardiogenic syncope with orthostatic hypotension. I noticed that my blood pressure gets extremely low in the middle of the night, sometimes my husband has to do the sternum rub to awake me in the morning. Is it normal for me to have such a high pulse at 104 when I wake up in the morning?
MD I'm losing weight (30lbs so far) and I have 40 to go to reach goal of 135. Was on metoprolol 25 mg 1x a day, but B/P dropped and over time and had 2 weak, almost fainting spells which landed me in the ER 2nd episode. ER doctor, after all tests came back fine, diagnosed vertigo and told me to get off the B/P med. and talk to my doctor. I did that and my Dr. said it wasn't the pills, (off the pills 4 days now and my B/P was 114/64 today and was just a bit higher in his office. I don't understand why he doesn't want me off, however, I told him I was not comfortable restarting them again. If a person has a healthy blood pressure but is put on the med that I was on, can that cause weakness and feeling lightheaded and faint? In your opinion, should I be on high B/P med? thank you
