I'm really confused about what the normal blood pressure value is supposed to be. I've read online that it's 12080, but then I've also heard from doctors that 14090 is normal, and some even say up to 160100 isn't a problem. I'm really anxious about this and just want to know what the actual normal range for blood pressure is.

I'm really worried about Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. If someone finds out they have it early on, can it be treated even if it can't be completely cured? What kind of problems might the person face, and how does it affect their chances of living a full life?
If Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy is detected at an early stage, it can be managed effectively to improve symptoms and prevent complications. Medications such as beta blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) or calcium channel blockers (e.g. Verapamil) may be prescribed to help relax the heart muscle and improve blood flow. In some cases, antiarrhythmic medications like Amiodarone may be used to control abnormal heart rhythms. In addition to medications, lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a heart-healthy diet, and avoiding excessive alcohol intake are important in managing Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. In more severe cases, procedures like septal myectomy or alcohol septal ablation may be recommended to relieve symptoms and improve heart function. Patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy may face issues such as shortness of breath, chest pain, fatigue, dizziness, and an increased risk of abnormal heart rhythms or sudden cardiac arrest. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential to monitor the condition and adjust treatment as needed. With proper management and adherence to treatment, the survival chances for patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy can be good. However, it is important for patients to stay compliant with their medications, follow a healthy lifestyle, and attend regular medical appointments to optimize their long-term outcomes.

I'm currently taking 4mg of Acitrom because I had an AVR procedure. My doctor suggested adding Ecosprin 150 mg, but since Ecosprin is also a blood thinner, I'm feeling a bit uncertain about taking both. Could I be at risk for any complications, or is this combination really safe?
Taking Ecosprin 150 mg along with acitrom can increase the risk of bleeding due to their combined blood-thinning effects. It is important to follow your doctor's advice, but if you have concerns, it is best to discuss them with your doctor.
