I'm a bit concerned because my diastolic pressure keeps hitting around or sometimes over 100, while my systolic pressure is almost always under 130, only rarely going above that. Is this something I should be worried about? Does this mean I'm a BP patient now? Also, I'm really interested in knowing if there's a natural way to manage this without having to rely on tablets. What can I do?

I've been told by my doctor that I need a CT angiography, but because of my sinus tachycardia, he mentioned it might be hard to do. I'm already taking beta-blockers and sedatives, but my heart rate is still not under control at the doctor's office. I'm worried about how I can manage my heart rate so I can get the CT angio done. What should I do?

To manage your heart rate for CT angiography despite sinus tachycardia, you can consider using a calcium channel blocker such as Diltiazem. The recommended dosage for Diltiazem in this case would be 120-360 mg per day. This medication can help in controlling your heart rate and making it feasible to undergo the CT angiography procedure. Additionally, you may also benefit from the use of a medication like Atenolol, a beta blocker, at a dosage of 25-100 mg per day to further help in controlling your heart rate during the procedure. It is important to follow your doctor's guidance and dosage instructions carefully.
