I'm monitoring my blood pressure with an Omron machine, and it reads 100140, but my pulse is normal. I heard that blood pressure can stay high in winter. Should I think about consulting a doctor for this?

Seasonal changes can indeed affect blood pressure levels in some individuals. If your blood pressure consistently remains at 140100 mmHg, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation. You can consider taking antihypertensive medication like Losartan 50mg once daily to help manage your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper assessment and personalized treatment plan.

View allI'm dealing with high blood pressure around 155105 and have been taking inzit 4 mg once daily as advised by my doctor for the past 10 days, but Im not seeing any improvement. Both of my parents have high BP too, and I work in a software job which means I sit a lot. Does this mean Ill have to be on medication forever, or are there lifestyle changes I can try that might help lower my BP without relying on meds?
Despite taking Inzit 4mg for 10 days, your BP remains high; consider lifestyle modifications to complement medication: regular aerobic exercise (30 minutesday), stress reduction techniques (meditation, yoga), weight management, dietary changes (low sodium, high potassium, DASH diet), increased water intake, and adequate sleep (7-8 hoursnight); also, discuss with your doctor potential adjustments to your medication regimen, such as dosage or additional medications, to achieve better BP control; with consistent lifestyle efforts and medication adherence, it's possible to reduce BP and potentially decrease medication dependence over time.

I've been dealing with high BP for about 8 months now. I was taking Stamlo 5 but it didn't really get it under control. So last month, I added Telma 20 to the mix and it's helped a bit with the numbers, which are now around 180185. But lately, I've been having these episodes where I can't catch my breath for a few seconds, and it feels like my heart suddenly skips a beat. It's kind of worrying and I'm not really sure what's going on. Could this be related to my medication or is it something else?
Physician opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm really worried about my mom. She had a CABG x 2 about three months ago and now she's started feeling numb all over her chest and body for about an hour. We rushed her to the hospital and they did a High Sensitive Troponin I test. The report showed 2.9 ngL, but the normal range according to the lab is 19 ngL. Does this mean she might've had another attack? Is she at risk? Please help us understand what this could mean.
