I'm dealing with some light pain in my chest and shoulders, and my 2D echo report showed mild MR and TR with PAH and an RVSP of 40 mmHg. Can you help me figure out what steps I should take or what this might mean for my health?

Based on your symptoms and 2D echo report showing mild MRTRPah with an Rvsp of 40mmHg, it is important to manage your condition. You can take Tablet Aspirin 75mg once daily to help with any chest pain and to prevent blood clots. Additionally, you can take Tablet Losartan 50mg once daily to help lower blood pressure and reduce the strain on your heart. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm really worried about my father. He's had high blood pressure for about 20 days now. He's already a BP patient, but lately, his pressure is shooting up to around 16090. He was on promolate xl 25 before and now he's been switched to telvas 40 by the doctor. It doesn't seem to be helping control his blood pressure, though. Can you suggest anything that might help us manage this better?
It seems like your father's blood pressure is not well controlled with Telvas 40. In this case, the doctor may consider adding or adjusting the dosage of another medication. One common combination for high blood pressure is Telvas 40 (Telmisartan 40mg) along with Amlodipine (usually 5mg to 10mg). Amlodipine helps to further lower blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels. However, the final decision on the medication and dosage should be made by your father's treating physician after a thorough evaluation. It is important to continue monitoring his blood pressure regularly and follow up with his doctor for further management.

I've been having some trouble with my blood pressure readings. My right arm was at 14296, while the left was 12487. Is this something I should be worried about? On top of that, I've been dealing with feelings of depression and constant negative thoughts. My doctor told me I have some gastric issues like LAX CARDIA, EROSIVE ESOPHAGITIS, and ANTRAL EROSIVE GASTROPATHY. I've been on medication for a while, but they don't seem to be helping. Plus, my upper back has been aching, probably because I'm sitting a lot at work. Could you give me some advice on what I should do?
Regarding your blood pressure difference between your right and left arms, it is important to monitor this discrepancy and follow up with your healthcare provider. It could indicate underlying vascular issues that need to be addressed. As for your feelings of depression and negative thoughts, it is crucial to seek support from a mental health professional for proper evaluation and management. For your gastric issues including LAX CARDIA EROSIVE ESOPHAGITIS and ANTRAL EROSIVE GASTROPATHY, the medications you have been taking may need adjustment. You can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Esomeprazole (brand name Nexium) along with a prokinetic agent like Metoclopramide (brand name Reglan) for better control of your symptoms. To manage your upper back pain due to prolonged sitting, you can try over-the-counter pain relievers like Ibuprofen (brand name Advil) for pain and inflammation. Additionally, incorporating regular stretching exercises and maintaining a good posture at work can help alleviate the discomfort. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific health needs.

So, my diastolic pressure is usually in the 85 to 95 range, though it mostly stays below 90, and my systolic is around 115 to 130. I've had an ECG done, and my lipid profile and urine checkup came back fine. But I'm still wondering why my diastolic is sometimes high. I've noticed a light burning sensation on the left side of my chest whenever my blood pressure goes up. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I should do about this?
