I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. Normally, it sits around 12090, but every now and then, it'll spike to about 130100, or drop to 10080. It used to be at 10070. I'm trying to find a natural solution and wondering if Ayurveda could help manage this, as I really don't want to be on medication forever. I lead a pretty active lifestyle, and I'm really careful with my diet and regular exercise. What do you think? Is there an alternative approach I could try?

I'm a bit concerned about some ECG results from my recent TMT test. The report came back normal, no signs of ischemia or arrhythmias, but I noticed some changes in the T wave on one of the pages. I brought it up with the cardiologist, and he dismissed it as non-specific. Still, I can't shake this uneasy feeling. I attached a resting ECG I took two hours after the TMT. Can you take a look and let me know if there's anything to worry about?

Nothing to worry it is normal, t wave presence is normal since the tmt test is also negative for ischaemia and arrytmia.Repeat ecg is advised after 2 weeks...

I'm a 51-year-old male and I've just been diagnosed with Mitral valve prolapse. My doctor mentioned that it's not something dangerous and there's nothing to worry about for now. But, I'm curious about what can cause this condition so I can take precautions. What should I know to prevent any potential issues down the line?

MVP is often a condition people are born with, caused by abnormalities in the tissue that makes up the valve and its supporting structures. While the exact cause isn't always clear, several factors can contribute to its development: genetics (it can run in families), connective tissue disorders like Marfan syndrome, and age-related changes to the heart. As for precautions, while you can't prevent MVP itself, you can help maintain good heart health by: managing blood pressure, eating a heart-healthy diet, getting regular exercise (as approved by your doctor), maintaining a healthy weight, not smoking, and keeping up with regular medical check-ups. Your doctor is right that many people with MVP never develop serious problems, but it's still good to monitor it. The most important thing is to attend your follow-up appointments and alert your doctor if you notice any new symptoms like shortness of breath, chest pain, or irregular heartbeats.
