I'm really worried about having three blocked arteries in the heart. Is bypass surgery the best option for this situation, or are there other treatments I should consider? I've heard a lot about different procedures, but it's all a bit confusing. What do you recommend?

Yes, bypass surgery is often recommended for blockages in multiple arteries of the heart. The surgery involves creating new pathways for blood to flow to the heart muscle by using a healthy blood vessel from another part of the body or a synthetic tube. This can help improve blood flow to the heart and reduce symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath. The specific medication and dosage post-surgery will depend on individual factors and should be prescribed by your healthcare provider.

I'm really struggling to manage my high blood pressure and I'm feeling worried about the side effects I'm experiencing. Right now, I'm taking Amlopres AT 25 in the morning and plain Amlodipine 2.5 in the evening, but I just don't feel fresh and there's this persistent pain in my ankle. I did try switching to Metaprolol, but it only made my BP and heart rate go up. I also attempted using Telmesartan with Amlodipine, which controlled my BP, but then my heart rate increased. I'm feeling stuck and a bit lost about what to do next. My lipid profile is under control with cholesterol at 150 and triglycerides at 76, and my fasting blood sugar is 106. Could you suggest a better medication plan or any other advice?

Take Temsan AM for 15 days , and check BP after 15 days

I'm really worried because my blood pressure has been super high for the last few hours, reading 197 over 111. I'm feeling a lot of discomfort and it's making me nervous. Could this be hypertension or something else I should be concerned about? What should I do right now?

High blood pressure with readings of 197111 is a cause for concern and may require immediate medical attention. You can take Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 10mg to help lower your blood pressure. It is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

Should I be worried about this, or is it something that could resolve on its own? Could it be related to stress, or should I get it checked out immediately?
