I'm a 75-year-old man and I'm feeling a bit worried. Back in 1977, I had a T-wave inversion and recently, I developed postural hypotension. My cardiologist checked my ECG, 2D echo, and TMT, and everything seemed normal except for the old T-wave inversion in V4, V5, and V6. He prescribed me to take Deplatt CV once a day, which I've been doing since May 2017. Lately, I've come across some pretty scary stuff about clopidogrel on the internet, and it has me feeling anxious. Could you please let me know if it's really safe for me?

What does it mean when my CT coronary angiography says there's a type 2 issue in the LAD? I've been dealing with chest pain and palpitations, and I'm really worried about what this could imply for my heart health. Could you help me understand what this result means and how serious it might be?
In your CT coronary angiography report, "LAD type 2" refers to a variation in the branching pattern of the left anterior descending artery. This variation is usually considered a normal anatomical variant and does not necessarily indicate any disease or blockage in the artery. It is important to correlate this finding with your symptoms of chest pain and palpitations. For chest pain and palpitations, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for chest pain and beta-blockers like metoprolol for palpitations. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried because my blood pressure has been super high for the last few hours, reading 197 over 111. I'm feeling a lot of discomfort and it's making me nervous. Could this be hypertension or something else I should be concerned about? What should I do right now?
High blood pressure with readings of 197111 is a cause for concern and may require immediate medical attention. You can take Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 10mg to help lower your blood pressure. It is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
