I'm dealing with depression and recently had some heart tests done - my TMT came back negative, and both my ECG and echo were normal. However, my doctor prescribed me macsart 40 for blood pressure. I'm confused and a bit worried. Why would they prescribe BP medicine if my tests are normal? Any advice would be appreciated.

View allI'm really concerned about my 17-year-old brother. His blood pressure reading came back as 154 over 90, but his other test results were all normal. What could this mean? Should he start taking medication for it? I'm just trying to figure out what the best course of action is.
for a 17-year-old with a blood pressure reading of 15490, the high blood pressure could be due to various factors such as stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, or genetics. It is important to monitor his blood pressure regularly to see if it remains high. In some cases, lifestyle changes such as improving diet and exercise may be enough to lower blood pressure. However, if his blood pressure remains high, medication may be necessary to prevent complications. I recommend starting with lifestyle changes and monitoring his blood pressure closely. If medication is needed, he may be prescribed a medication like Amlodipine 5mg once daily.

I will need to see the ECG report to give you an accurate assessment of whether it is normal or not. Please attach the report so I can review it.
