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?

View allI'm really worried about my dad. We live in Hyderabad, and he said he had a mild heart attack last night. He felt numbness on the left side of his body, chest pain, and had a tough time breathing until he took a pill, all of which lasted for about 30 seconds. He's diabetic, and just yesterday, his blood sugar was 160 before lunch and 255 after. Plus, he recently had gangrene, which led to his left leg's middle finger being amputated. Now, he's got a throat infection, and he's finding it hard to speak clearly. With all this going on, should we see a cardiologist and possibly get him admitted to the hospital, or is it okay to stick with the meds his previous cardiologist gave him?
It sounds like your father may have experienced a mild heart attack based on the symptoms you described. Given his medical history of diabetes, recent amputation due to gangrene, and current throat infection, it is important to seek immediate medical attention. I recommend consulting a cardiologist and getting him admitted to the hospital for further evaluation and treatment. In the meantime, continue the medications prescribed by his previous cardiologist. It is crucial to address his heart health in light of these recent symptoms and medical conditions.

I'm really worried about my grandfather who's 76. He was hospitalized twice because his blood pressure went up to 200100. We have the ECG from when he was in the hospital and his prescription too. Since getting discharged, his blood pressure is fine during the day, but at night it gradually rises to somewhere between 16080 and 18090. Does the ECG indicate he's had a heart attack? Are the medications he's on appropriate?
If the ECG shows sinus rhythm with no signs of acute myocardial infarction. The medications prescribed are Amlodipine 5mg once daily and Atenolol 25mg once daily. These are appropriate medications for controlling high blood pressure. However, since your grandfather's blood pressure is still increasing during the night, a medication adjustment may be needed. I recommend consulting with the doctor who prescribed these medications to discuss the possibility of increasing the dosage or adding another medication to better control his blood pressure during the night.
