I'm a bit confused about my blood pressure medication. My doctor measured my blood pressure at 149 over 90, using a digital BP machine, and prescribed me TelmaH. But that day, I'd walked to the clinic without resting, so maybe that's why my reading was so high. I've been on the meds for 15 days, but in the last 2 days, my blood pressure has been normal even without taking the medication. Is it safe for me to stop taking it, or should I continue the course just to be sure? What should I do?

It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding medication. In this case, since your blood pressure has been normal without taking the medication for the past 2 days, you can discuss with your doctor about possibly adjusting the dosage or frequency of Telma-H. It is also possible that your high reading at the clinic was influenced by walking without resting. However, it is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen.

View allMy dad just got a health check-up, and his TMT test came out positive. The doctor suggested we go for an angiogram, and I'm curious if we're on the right path here. Is there a possibility that the angiogram might show no blockages at all? Also, are there any risks we should be aware of when getting an angiogram?
Yes, you're on the right track. A positive TMT (Treadmill Test) suggests that there may be reduced blood flow to the heart, and an angiogram is a standard follow-up to check for any blockages. It is possible that an angiogram might show no significant blockages; sometimes TMT results are positive due to other factors. Angiograms are generally safe, but they do carry minimal risks, such as bleeding, infection, or, rarely, an allergic reaction to the dye used.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with high BP for the last 15 days, even though she regularly takes her medication. About two weeks ago, she woke up with her left eye really red, and the doctors said her BP was at 100180. She's been on Amlopres 5 mg for BP for 25 years and Ecosprin 75 mg to thin her blood for 5-6 years. The doctors recently switched her meds to CTDT 6.2540 mg in the morning and Cildip 5 mg in the evening for BP, along with Clodrel 75 for blood thinning. What could be causing her BP to spike like this, and is there a way to get it under control?
Excessive masturbation (4-5 times a day) can lead to mental fatigue, decreased concentration, and increased stress and anxiety. It can also cause feelings of guilt, shame, and low self-esteem. Desensitization to pleasure and potential erectile dysfunction are possible risks. Additionally, excessive masturbation can negatively impact relationships and daily life. It's essential to maintain a balanced and healthy lifestyle.
