I'm curious about homeopathy as a treatment for blocked arteries and was wondering if it's effective? I've also noticed a burning sensation in my feet and hands and I'm scared if it's related. Could you shed some light on this and recommend what I might do?

View allI'm really concerned about my mom's health. She's had a history of cardiac attacks and has been on various medications since her last one. Right now, she takes Arkamin in the morning and night, and Ecosprin 75 in the afternoon. She also uses Nexpro 40 and Ganaton 50mg for acidity. The problem is that her blood pressure is consistently around 160-170100 throughout the day, even with medication. There are times it might drop to 13070, but it doesn't last. We've had all these tests done, like Thyrocare X, ECG, and ECO, and everything comes back normal. What's puzzling and worrying is that she's very sensitive to light and sound, her heartbeat increases when exposed to these, especially in the evening. Plus, she feels like her heart skips a beat when there's noise. She's been eating really light and avoiding spicy food, following her angiography back in 2013 where the doctor recommended sticking to medication. I'm really trying to understand why these symptoms are persisting now and what steps we should take next. Any insights?
It seems like your mother is experiencing uncontrolled high blood pressure despite taking Arkamin and Ecosprin. Given her symptoms of sensitivity to light and sound, along with the fluctuating blood pressure readings, it is important to address this issue promptly. Considering her history of cardiac issues, it is crucial to optimize her blood pressure control. I would recommend adding a medication like Telma 40mg once daily to help lower her blood pressure more effectively. Additionally, since she is experiencing acidity, she can continue taking Nexpro 40 for that. In order to address her sensitivity to light and sound, it may be beneficial to consult with an ophthalmologist and an ENT specialist to rule out any underlying issues. It is also important to continue monitoring her blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle modifications such as reducing stress, maintaining a healthy diet, and engaging in regular physical activity. Overall, the addition of Telma 40mg to her current medication regimen may help better control her blood pressure and alleviate some of her symptoms. Regular follow-up with her healthcare provider is essential to monitor her progress.

I've been dealing with anxiety since the pandemic started, and it's been causing my blood pressure to creep up to around 140100. I was on Metasartan 25mg for a while but stopped it following my doctor's advice. All my heart-related tests like TMT, ECHO, ECG, and Troponin have come back normal. I checked my blood pressure a couple of weeks ago over four days, and it was 13084, 10282, 12485, and 12082. This was after stopping the BP meds. Are these readings normal, and should I be worried? My TSH is 2, lipid total is 197, LDL is 124, triglycerides are 244, and HDL is 37. There's no family history of heart issues, and all the elders in my family are pretty healthy, with many living past 70. What do you think?
It is good that your TMT, ECHO, ECG, and Troponin tests were normal. Your blood pressure readings seem to be within an acceptable range, although it is important to monitor them regularly. Considering your lipid profile, you may benefit from lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet and regular exercise to improve your lipid levels. In addition, since you have a history of anxiety disorder, managing stress and anxiety through relaxation techniques or therapy may also help in controlling your blood pressure. If your blood pressure continues to fluctuate or if you have any concerning symptoms, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
