I'm always having chest pain, and it's weird because it gets worse when I'm sitting but seems to get better with walking, exercising, or lying down. This usually kicks in after sitting for over 2 hours at my office. It's been going on for a while now. Can anyone help figure out what might be going on?

So, my mom was diagnosed with 80% stenosis in the mid RCA and there's also a 50% instent restenosis in the distal RCA, where she had a stent put in back in 2010. We're a bit confused because one doctor is suggesting she should go through angioplasty again for both areas, while another doctor thinks it's not necessary. This is pretty stressful, and I really want to make the right decision. Could you explain what the typical approach is for handling instent restenosis and how serious this situation looks?

RCA STENOSIS 80% IN MID SEGMENT WILL INFLUENCE EFFECT OF DISTAL STENOSIS. ONCE U OPEN MID RCA LESION WITH BALOON AND DO ANGIOPLASTY THEN CHECK THE INSTENT RESTENOSIS LESION WITH FFR. IF FFR IS MORE THAN O.8 THEN NOTHING FOR DISTAL AND IF FFR IS LESS THAN 0.8 ANGIOPLASTY TO INSTENT RESTENOSIS.

I'm really concerned about my 17-year-old brother. His blood pressure reading came back as 154 over 90, but his other test results were all normal. What could this mean? Should he start taking medication for it? I'm just trying to figure out what the best course of action is.

for a 17-year-old with a blood pressure reading of 15490, the high blood pressure could be due to various factors such as stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, or genetics. It is important to monitor his blood pressure regularly to see if it remains high. In some cases, lifestyle changes such as improving diet and exercise may be enough to lower blood pressure. However, if his blood pressure remains high, medication may be necessary to prevent complications. I recommend starting with lifestyle changes and monitoring his blood pressure closely. If medication is needed, he may be prescribed a medication like Amlodipine 5mg once daily.
