I'm really curious about something. Is it possible to have a heart stent removed without undergoing bypass surgery? I'm trying to understand if there's a way to do this less invasively. Would love to hear your thoughts!

I'm really worried because for the past four months I've been dealing with high blood pressure, fatigue, and dizziness. A month ago, I saw a physician who told me my BP was 150100 and put me on some tablets. I started with Prolomet XL 25, then added Amlong 2.5 after dinner. For a couple of weeks, things seemed better with my BP at 13080, but the dizziness and fatigue haven't gone away. I've never felt like this before. Do you think there are other medicines I should consider or any other advice you might have?
It's good that your blood pressure has improved with the medications you are currently taking. However, if you are still experiencing dizziness and fatigue, it may be necessary to adjust your medication regimen. I would recommend adding a medication like Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 12.5mg once daily in the morning. This medication can help further control your blood pressure and reduce the dizziness and fatigue symptoms you are experiencing. Remember to consult with your physician before making any changes to your medication regimen."

I'm really concerned about my 17-year-old brother. His blood pressure reading came back as 154 over 90, but his other test results were all normal. What could this mean? Should he start taking medication for it? I'm just trying to figure out what the best course of action is.
for a 17-year-old with a blood pressure reading of 15490, the high blood pressure could be due to various factors such as stress, poor diet, lack of exercise, or genetics. It is important to monitor his blood pressure regularly to see if it remains high. In some cases, lifestyle changes such as improving diet and exercise may be enough to lower blood pressure. However, if his blood pressure remains high, medication may be necessary to prevent complications. I recommend starting with lifestyle changes and monitoring his blood pressure closely. If medication is needed, he may be prescribed a medication like Amlodipine 5mg once daily.
