You seem to experience issues with hypotension and nausea. Spironolactone, a medication you take, can decrease blood pressure. When blood pressure declines excessively, dizziness and sickness may occur. Stay hydrated by consuming ample fluids. Additionally, opt for frequent small meals. If symptoms persist, consult your cardiologist promptly for guidance.

Your heart's pumping power is low, about 30%. It makes you easily tired, short of breath, and dizzy. Eating vitamin-rich foods helps, like fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Omega-3 fish oil supplements can also boost heart health. Exercise regularly and reduce stress levels. These lifestyle changes may strengthen your heart. You can consult a cardiologist.

Driving may resume within 1-2 weeks if feeling well. You can take short walks, but avoid strenuous exercise initially. Pranayama's benefits await, yet start gently, listening closely. Should chest pain or dizziness arise, cease activity and rest. You can also talk to your cardiologist for advice.

Being a bit nervous during a walk is okay. Your heart rate going up to 124-135bpm is normal. Even a spike to 150bpm happens sometimes. Anxiety makes your heart beat faster. Use relaxation methods like deep breaths or being mindful. If you feel dizzy or have chest pains, contact a cardiologist.

A longer than normal QT interval often shows up on an ECG. This could mean heart rhythms aren't normal. You might feel dizzy, pass out, or have pounding heartbeats. Having an echocardiogram helps see how your heart works. It's crucial to see your cardiologist. They'll look deeper into this and treat it properly.

Yes, ingesting 15 grams of propafenone is more than enough to turn into a dangerous medical situation. The dose of propafenone overdose has various effects including dizziness, airway difficulty, cardio palmar discomfort, and arrhythmia. Early recognition and prompt medical attention become crucial for an overdose case. I recommend having a cardiologist on board for more comprehensive evaluation and therapy guidelines.
