I'm having this pain in my left leg that's been bothering me for about 15 days now. I'm 84 and have a history of heart issues, so I'm regularly on medications like Ecospirin, Amlokind for my blood pressure, and some others like Nitrolong and Losar, though I've recently stopped taking Renozex. The pain hits me when I walk. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really worried about my mom. She had a fever of 100.5 last week and hasn't had blood pressure issues before, but her BP was around 100160. We've had some family stress lately, so I'm thinking that might be affecting her health. The doctor did some tests like lipid, fasting sugar, uric acid, and creatinine, and they all came back normal. However, her BP has consistently been 100150 when we've checked recently. The doctor suggested starting her on Olmecip. I'm wondering, is there a way to manage her blood pressure without having to use medication? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a healthy diet low in sodium, maintaining a healthy weight, reducing stress, and avoiding tobacco and alcohol can help in controlling blood pressure. However, in some cases, medication may be necessary. In your mother's case, since her blood pressure readings have been consistently high, the doctor prescribed Olmecip. This medication is an angiotensin II receptor blocker that helps to relax blood vessels, lowering blood pressure. The usual starting dose of Olmecip is 20mg once daily. It is important to follow the doctor's advice and monitor blood pressure regularly.

I'm a bit concerned about my heart health. In March, my cardiologist recommended a 2D echo and TMT test. I've started taking Prolomet R50 and Deplatt A 75 as prescribed. I'm just wondering, does it seem like we're on the right track with the treatment plan?
