I'm a bit worried because I've been checking my blood pressure at home for the last couple of days, and its been around 13585. Its usually about 12075 with the Telma 40 I'm taking, which I started after having COVID. I also had my wisdom tooth taken out a couple of days ago. Is this spike in my blood pressure something I should be concerned about?

It is normal for blood pressure to fluctuate, especially after a dental procedure like wisdom tooth extraction. However, since your blood pressure readings have been consistently higher for the past two days, it is important to monitor it closely. In this situation, it would be advisable to consult your doctor to discuss the possibility of adjusting your medication dosage or considering additional treatment options. In the meantime, you can also try to reduce stress, maintain a healthy diet low in sodium, and engage in regular physical activity to help manage your blood pressure.

View allMy final diagnosis shows mitral annular calcification with concentric LVH and RWMA in the LCX territory. There's mild LV dysfunction with an LVEF of 49%, trivial MR, and grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. No TR or PE was noted. Do I need surgery for this, or what treatment options should I consider? I'm 65 and a bit worried about the next steps.
Given your diagnosis of mitral annular calcification, concentric LVH, RWMA in the LCX territory, mild LV dysfunction (LVEF 49%), trivial MR, and grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, you don't necessarily need surgery for the mitral annular calcification itself. The focus should be on managing the LV dysfunction, coronary artery disease (CAD), and potential issues related to the RWMA.

I'm 23 and have been dealing with constant chest pain for about a week now. I thought it might just be because of gas, so I tried some home remedies, but the pain hasn't gone away. I'm really starting to get worried. What could be causing this? Should I be concerned?
Persistent chest pain should not be ignored, as it can be a sign of a serious medical condition. In this case, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. You can take Acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief, but I recommend seeking medical attention as soon as possible for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

I'm experiencing these needle-like pains on the left side of my chest for just a split second. There's no sweating or weakness accompanying it. I've also noticed that when I take EVION LC or any vitamin E supplement, my vision gets a bit blurry. Is this something I should be concerned about?
The needle pain in your left side of the chest for a few seconds could be due to muscle spasms or nerve irritation. It is reassuring that you are not experiencing sweating or weakness along with it. However, the blurred vision you experience after taking EVION LC or any vitamin E supplement is concerning and should be addressed. I recommend stopping the use of EVION LC or any vitamin E supplement and consulting with your healthcare provider. They may suggest an alternative supplement or investigate further to determine the cause of your symptoms
