I'm really concerned about the long-term effects of beta blockers for managing hypertension. I've heard they might raise blood sugar and cholesterol levels. Can you suggest which beta blocker is the safest and has the least side effects?

Hey, I had a heart attack three months ago and I initially thought it was just a gastric issue, so I didn't go to the hospital right away. I was working normally until I went in for a routine check-up a few days later and they told me I had a heart attack. They did an angioplasty and put a stent in my LAD, and everything seemed to go well. Now, I'm doing a morning walk every day, around 6 km in an hour. I'm a 47-year-old guy and I'm just wondering, when would be a good time for me to go for a stress echo?
Given that you had a heart attack three months ago and have since undergone successful angioplasty with stent placement, its important to follow your cardiologist's advice for follow-up care. Typically, a stress echo is recommended several months after the procedure to evaluate how well your heart is functioning under stress and to ensure that the stent is working effectively. You should consult with your cardiologist to determine the best timing for this test based on your individual recovery and health status. Its great that you are walking daily; continue following your doctor's guidance on physical activity and medication.
