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 kind of worried about stopping Aspirin because I've been dealing with some stomach issues, and the doctor told me it might be gastritis. They said I should stop taking Aspirin and just stick with clopidogrel. I'm also a bit concerned because my platelet count came back at 110,000. Should I be thinking about a lower dose of Aspirin, like 50 or 25 mg, instead of stopping it altogether? Does that sound safer for someone with my heart condition?
Given your medical history and current condition, it is important to follow your doctor's advice to discontinue Aspirin and continue with Clopidogrel only. Aspirin is known to increase the risk of gastrointestinal issues, such as gastritis, which you experienced recently. Clopidogrel is a suitable alternative antiplatelet medication that can be used in place of Aspirin to prevent blood clots after procedures like PTCA. It is effective in reducing the risk of heart attack and stroke. Therefore, it is safe to discontinue Aspirin and rely on Clopidogrel for your cardiac health. It is not recommended to switch to a lower dose of Aspirin in your case.

I'm really worried about my mom. Her heart starts beating really fast at night and I'm not sure what to do. It's kind of freaking me out. Can you help?
Palpitations can be caused by various factors. In this case, it is important to first consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis. However, to help alleviate the symptoms, you can consider giving your mother a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The usual dosage for palpitations is around 25-50mg once or twice daily, as prescribed by a healthcare professional. Additionally, it is important to ensure your mother is staying hydrated, managing stress levels, and getting adequate rest.
