Taking Medicine For Hypertension. Have Fatty Liver, Gaining Weight And Feeling Weak. Worrisome
Hello Sir I have been suffering from hypertension since 2007.I have been medicated by Aten-50,Asomex-AT.......so on since 2007.now I am using one Tab daily morning i.e.Olmezest H-40. I have gone through so many tests...for heart ,lever & Kedney....but all are coming normal...except I have a fatty lever & my weight is 90kg now....and for last 10 days i have been feeling light weekness in my left chest area....what will my next step?
Is the pain in the chest area related with any kind of exertion ? Since you are overweight and suffering from hypertension, I would suggest you get an ECG done. We may also require a TMT and possible an Echocardiography. Please don't ignore this symptom. If you have not done it already, you must also get yourself tested for diabetes.
As far as the fatty liver is concerned , it is expected considering you weight. I would suggest you to loose atleast 9-10 kg and start on Vitamin E which helps with the fatty liver.
first decrease weight stop alcohol and smoking, take evion-lc daily 2 times , get checked for serum uric acid , urinary cortisols and aldosterone levels too :)
