I'm a 46-year-old guy who's a bit on the heavier side. I've always been healthy, but lately, they've told me I've got hypertension. I'm not a fan of allopathic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term side effects. Do you have any natural treatment options for dealing with hypertension?

I'm really worried about my mom's situation. She's dealing with restrictive cardiomyopathy, tricuspid regurgitation, and pulmonary hypertension. The doctor suggested she takes sildenafil 20 and Isolazine 20 three times daily, but I've read that mixing these meds can sometimes lead to serious issues. Could this combo be risky for her? She's also on seloken XL 25, Tide 10, and Dabigatran 110. Any advice would really help.

I'm really concerned because my father just went through a TMT test and his score was 3.52 Mets. The doctor didnt recommend an angiography, but I'm not sure if we should still consider getting one. Could you help me understand what this means and whether we need to take further action?

A Mits value of 3.52 indicates a moderate risk of coronary artery disease. Since the doctor has not suggested angiography, it is likely that the risk is not high enough to warrant further invasive testing at this point. However, it is important to follow the doctor's recommendations and continue with regular check-ups to monitor any changes in the condition. In the meantime, medications such as Atorvastatin 20mg and Aspirin 75mg may be prescribed to manage the risk factors for heart disease.
