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 right now because my mom just got her test results back and it shows she has a negative troponin test. I'm not sure what this means for her health. Can you please explain what steps we should take next or what we need to watch out for? Would really appreciate some advice on this.

Having a negative Trop T test indicates that there are no signs of a heart attack. It is a good sign. However, further evaluation may be needed to determine the cause of her symptoms. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I'm a bit worried because about a month ago I started having constant chest pain and it spread to my left shoulder and hand. I got a general checkup and found out my blood pressure was 160100, but my ECG and 2D echo and sugar levels were normal. They did say my triglycerides and uric acid were high, and I have a fatty liver, so I've been on a strict diet for three months, cutting out salt and doing regular walks. After 10 days, my blood pressure dropped to 12080, which I guess is good! My dad and grandpa had heart issues, so I'm a bit concerned if it's hereditary. Right now, Im on Telma 40 and Concor 5mg but since my blood pressure is normal, Im not sure if I should continue with these meds. Also, my left shoulder and chest still hurt. Can you help me figure out what's going on? I'm really confused right now.

I'm a bit concerned about my homocysteine level, which is currently at 29.9. Is this considered normal, or should I be worried? What could be causing it to be so high? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Homocysteine level of 29.9 is considered high. Possible causes of increased homocysteine levels include vitamin deficiencies (B6, B12, and folate), kidney disease, hypothyroidism, psoriasis, certain medications (such as methotrexate), and genetic factors. To lower homocysteine levels, you can consider taking medications like folic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12. The recommended dosage of folic acid is usually 400-800 mcg per day, vitamin B6 is 1.3-1.7 mg per day, and vitamin B12 is 2.4 mcg per day.
